Tafeldraaibank Proxxon MI 27 020, max. toerental 5000 t/min, groen

The Proxxon MI 27 020 bench lathe is a compact tabletop lathe with a maximum speed of 5000 RPM, intended for precise small-scale turning of metal, wood and plastic. Its small footprint and adjustable electronic speed control make it suitable for hobbyists, model makers and light workshop tasks where fine shaping, trimming and finishing are required.

Advantages

The lathe offers precise speed control for delicate work, a compact design that fits on a workbench, and a build suited to miniature turning tasks such as cups, vases, columns and model components. Electronic speed regulation helps maintain consistent rotation rates at lower speeds for semi-automated painting or finishing operations.

Suitable for

• Model making (dollhouse parts, model train components)
• Hobby turning of wood, metal and plastic
• Small workshop shaping, trimming and finishing
• Making miniature items like glasses, cups and columns

Key specifications

• Maximum rotational speed: 5000 RPM
• Application: small-scale turning of metal, wood and plastic
• Design: compact bench/top-mounted lathe
• Speed control: electronic regulation for lower and variable speeds

How to use

Mount the workpiece securely in the chuck or between centers, set the desired speed using the electronic speed control and perform turning operations with appropriate cutting tools. Use light feeds and small passes for miniature workpieces and check alignment frequently to ensure precision. For tasks such as semi-automated painting, set a low consistent speed and move the part steadily to achieve even coverage.

Recommendations

Use appropriate tooling and safety equipment, secure the lathe to a stable surface, and follow manufacturer maintenance instructions. For best results on miniature projects, work at lower speeds with fine cutting tools and verify concentricity often.
