Laguna REVO 18|36 'long-Bed' Wood Lathe
This full size REVO 18|36 lathe has been purpose-built for the Australian education market, offering the same strength, control, and professional performance with no comprimises on scale, features or performance. It’s the ideal solution for schools, clubs, and training facilities.
This School Specific model comes equiped with an heavy duty and adjustable, fabricated steel dust hood and hose, ready to connect to your dust network.
Precision Engineering and Premium Construction
The lathe bed is a standout feature—crafted from precision-ground ASTM A36 steel (tougher and more durable than cast iron) with an extra-wide 208 mm profile. This ensures smooth, stable movement of the headstock, tailstock, and tool rest across the bed.
The powerful 2HP induction motor, paired with a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive), provides high torque across the speed range, especially at lower RPMs. A one-lever belt tensioning system makes speed range changes fast and intuitive.
Ergonomic, User-Friendly Design
Control is effortless thanks to the anodised aluminium control panel and knurled rubber-grip speed dial. The blue-backlit digital readout makes it easy to monitor spindle speed at a glance.
The cast iron headstock, tailstock, and legs deliver excellent vibration resistance for smooth, comfortable turning—even when working with larger or unbalanced blanks. Long-handled, soft-grip cam lock levers provide solid clamping without deflection and are positioned at the rear of the machine to stay out of the operator’s way.
Built with Education and Safety in Mind
This Australian-spec model includes CE-rated safety upgrades such as a tool-locking belt door, making it ideal for school workshops and professional training spaces. Always confirm local machinery compliance requirements with your relevant state authority.
