Harrison Alpha 1660XS and 1760XS added to 600 UK range

600 UK is adding two heavyweights to the Harrison Alpha XS manual/CNC lathe range. The heavy duty Harrison Alpha 1660XS and 1760XS models have been designed in response to increased customer demand for turning larger diameter components.

Both the Alpha 1660XS and 1760XS machines offer an 18.5 kW motor with 105 mm spindle bores (the 1760XS model has an optional bore of 155 mm), delivering a spindle speed of 2,000 and 1,400 rpm respectively. Both models are of cast iron construction and can be specified with a centre distance from 1.5 to 4 m.

The Alpha 1660XS and 1760XS are fitted with the same Fanuc 0iTD/Harrison Alpha control system as the rest of the range. Through the proprietary Harrison control, this allows four ways of working – from manual turning through to full CNC production.
