Lathe Gear ProDynami 1370 replicates all the essential features of a workshop lathe, including a shiftable main gear, a Norton feed gear, a change gear and a tumbler gear. This Lathe Gear is driven by a hand crank with a graduated dial for slow, safe operation, and uses a recorder drum with stylus to simulate feed on paper. The open design exposes all gear parts for clear observation. The primary spindle offers 9 speed stages and the feed gear offers 7 stages.

Construction and Design
The Lathe Gear ProDynami 1370 has a shiftable main gear, a feed gear for driving the lead screw (Norton gear), a change gear and a tumbler gear. Drive is supplied by a hand crank with a graduated dial. This allows processes to run slowly and completely safely. The tool slide performs only longitudinal motion. Automatic longitudinal feed is achieved by a lead screw. A removable recorder drum simulates the workpiece. The cutting tool is replaced by a stylus. Feed is recorded on paper via the recorder drum on the primary spindle. The gear parts are exposed, allowing all functions to be observed clearly. The design offers optimum insight due to its open construction. The primary spindle has 9 speed stages. The feed gear has 7 stages. This construction makes the Lathe Gear suitable for investigating all essential gear functions of a workshop lathe with easily repeatable experiments.
