Description

The Widin Live Centre is a carbide-tipped half-tipped dead center designed for precise, reliable support in turning operations. Built to the LM-HCN Type No.6 standard, it provides a robust and stable center point that helps deliver consistent finishes on demanding workloads. Morse tapers are available to fit a range of machines, including No. 1 and No. 7 configurations, making it easy to pair with your existing spindle setup.

  • Carbide-Tipped Durability: The carbide tip delivers exceptional wear resistance, extending center life under heavy turning and tough materials, so you spend less time replacing parts.
  • Minimal Bite Interference with Ultra-Low Runout: Half-tipped geometry reduces biting on the workpiece, delivering runout as low as 0.00012" to 0.0002" (0.003–0.005 mm) for true, steady rotation and superior surface finishes.
  • Flexible Morse Taper Compatibility (No. 1–No. 7): Designed to fit common spindle tapers, enabling quick, secure mounting across machines while maintaining reliable alignment with the LM-HCN Type No.6 configuration.

This live centre helps streamline production by providing stable support, reducing misalignment, and delivering consistent, repeatable results. Its durable construction and precise runout minimize downtime and rework, while easy-to-match Morse tapers simplify upgrades or changes in tooling and setups. Whether you’re outlining a high-volume job or pursuing tight tolerance work, this centre supports efficient workflows and dependable performance from setup to finish.
