Clipper Lathe Cum Chasing Machine

All  lathes  look alike,  but a CTC roller grooving machine has to be much more  than  an  ordinary lathe. The chasing  operation  requires  a  very sturdy machine  since, at any given time several teeth of a chasing tool are  cutting  into  the  roller   resulting  in  heavy  load  on  the  various components - tool  holder, saddle,  cross slide  etc. A lathe not suitably designed  for  such  heavy loads will lead to vibration and chatter marks on the roller - an ideal recipe for poor cuts!

The  Clipper  is  the  only  sharpening  lathe  that  comes  to  you  with tolerance  as per IS - 1878, Part - 1, (ISO 1708)  something  that  only the best of lathes in the world can boast of.

Fitted  with  optional Digital Read Out(DRO) introduced for the first time in  the  tea  industry  by  T & I,  the lathe  is  guaranteed  to  give you accuracy to 5 microns.
