Shaft diameter: 8 – 24″ / 203.2 – 609.6 mm

The CLIMAX PL4000 portable lathe is engineered for precision shaft machining where space is limited, and disassembly is impractical. Designed to handle big jobs in tight spots, this portable lathe mounts directly to the end of the workpiece and requires minimal radial and axial clearance. It delivers accurate in-place machining for maintenance, repair, and overhaul applications across industrial, power generation, and marine environments.

With the ability to precisely re-turn both straight and tapered shafts, the PL4000 portable lathe provides exceptional flexibility in the field. Its adjustable turning bar allows quick setup for optimal reach, turning radius, and obstacle clearance, making it ideal for shaft diameters from 8 to 24 inches (203.2 to 609.6 mm). Built for reliability and repeatability, the CLIMAX PL4000 ensures consistent, high-quality results on demanding shaft machining projects.
