Monarch 10EE toolmakers lathe
with Acu-rite TurnVision digitals and Hardinge, Aloris, Jacobs, and Buck tooling.
Our Monarch has an infinitely variable speed 5hp motor driven by direct current, converted from ac current using thyratron tubes. This old but proven technology requires extra circuitry and some cool electronics. When this lathe was manufactured variable speed AC motor technology was not available.
