Description

The Widin Live Centre is a high-speed, long-life nut-type live center built to support precise turning with minimal vibration. It offers Morse taper options No.3 and No.5 for fast, secure mounting on a wide range of lathes, and uses upgraded bearings designed for high-speed rotation to deliver durability and longer life than standard SM-type centers, with an ultra-tight runout of 0.00012" (0.003 mm) for consistent finishes.

  • Morse taper options No.3 and No.5: Quick, secure mounting on a broad range of lathes, enabling fast setup and repeatable alignment across machines.
  • Upgraded high-speed bearings for longer life: Special bearings for high-speed rotation deliver greater durability and longer service life compared to SM Type, reducing downtime and maintenance.
  • Ultra-low runout: Runout of 0.00012" (0.003 mm) ensures concentric workholding and smoother finishes at high RPM.

This live center helps you maintain concentricity and finishes at high speed, boosting workflow efficiency, reducing rework, and delivering reliable, repeatable results across a wide range of turning tasks. With durable bearings and precise runout, you can trust it to withstand busy shop schedules and demanding workloads, whether you’re a professional machinist, an engineer, or a hobbyist.
