Hello from the Netherlands

[Jurrian MulderParticipant @jurrianmulder17808]

good evening,

I am Jurrian Mulder, an engineering student from Holland. I work a lot with machining and Cad for my study, but in my free time I like to tune 2 stroke engines. I have my own bridgeport milling machine, and a hobby lathe. just bought a second lathe, an Italian one. I don't know the brand yet, hoping you guys could help.

greetings,

Greetngs!

Send us a picture of the new Italian lathe – almost certainly it can be identified.

Hello,

thank you for the reactions, here some pictures of the lathe. There's no type plate, only some text about the type of oil and about a lock. Hope the images work

Hi Jurrian, welcome to the forum. That's a sturdy heavily built machine, useful for very many jobs.
(BTW the bottom picture link didn't work for me)

Sorry, double post but can't seem to be able to delete it, needs a moderator's touch.

Judt found out how to post pictures directly, so here they are.

Some more information about the lathe:

So as i said there is no type plate or anyting on the in or outside of the machine. It has a bison 160mm chuck on there, which I think isn't original. The lathe has autofeed in both directions, with 6 different feeding speeds. There is a 2 step 3 phase motor in there, 700 and 1400 rpm. 4 different sizes pully at the motor and 4 at the main shaft. Rpm range is 250rpm until 3100 rpm. It has a clutch and brake in the drivetrain, and a lock to lock the main shaft in 6 positions, each 60 degree. Oilpump is there aslo, but not working at the moment. All text is italian. I have looked the list at lathes.co.uk, but couldn't find anything.

Welcome, Jurrian, your lathe looks good, maybe a toolmakers lathe, it is very heavily built for its size.
