Powermatic 3520B Lathe

2HP, 1 or 3PH, 220V Stock Number: 1352001

The Powermatic® 3520B is the third evolution of the time honored lathe with many new and improved features. The 3520B retained all the features of the prior models such as the sliding headstock, electronic variable speed with low and high speed ranges, and the spindle lock. The enhanced features include a digital RPM readout, built in spindle indexing on the head stock, and a re-designed tailstock with internal storage, chrome trimmed handwheels, and a laser etched quill which is self ejecting. The toolrest assembly also has improved locking on a new profile tool rest which can accommodate an optional dust hood assembly that travels with the toolrest. Additional features include a set of dead centers which hold a spindle for visual comparison, a two position mount for the optional bed extension, a sliding hammer knockout rod with brass tip, an attached tool caddy and a metal shelf for tool storage.

FEATURES
Digital readout allows the user to see the exact RPM that the spindle is turning at for more accurate adjustments and fine tuning
Redesigned headstock allows for better chisel angles when turning the back side of a bowl against the headstock
Redesigned tool rest geometry allows for better chisel movement along the tool rest
Brass tipped knockout bar concentrates the action in the sliding handle; the brass tip will not mar or damage any of the drive centers
Tool caddy mounts directly to the lathe which allows the user to store all the necessary tools right under the headstock
Tailstock storage keeps a chip free area to store other often used accessories.
