## Summary description

Benchtop metalworking lathe Proxxon PD 250/E with 250 mm distance between centers and 43 mm cross slide travel. Designed for precision turning of small parts, it runs on 220–240 V at 50–60 Hz. Compact dimensions (270 × 560 × 170 mm) make it suitable for workshops and hobby use for machining shafts, bushings, and prototypes.

## Long description

Proxxon PD 250/E is a benchtop metalworking lathe engineered for precision turning of small parts. With a centre distance of 250 mm and a cross slide travel (height over cross slide) of 43 mm, the machine supports face turning, longitudinal turning, taper turning and thread-cutting on materials such as steel, brass, aluminium and plastic. The lathe combines a cast-iron bed with prism slides, a die-cast aluminium headstock and tailstock, and a quiet DC motor with multi-stage belt drive and additional electronic speed control, offering a compact solution for workshop and hobby use.
Advantages
The cast-iron bed with wide-legged shape and prism slides provides vibration-free stability under load, while the precision-bearing main spindle delivers low runout for accurate turning. A high-quality 3-jaw chuck (DIN 8386 Class 1) with reversible jaws covers a large clamping range and includes a safety guard with automatic shutdown. The multi-stage belt drive together with continuous electronic speed adjustment and forward/reverse rotation gives flexible spindle speed control for a variety of workpieces and cutting conditions. Compact dimensions and a lightweight design make the lathe easy to install on a workbench without sacrificing functionality.
Suitable for
Precision turning of shafts, bushings and small prototypes
Face, longitudinal and taper turning on metals and plastics
Thread cutting of common metric pitches
Toolroom tasks, model making and small-series production

How to use
Secure the lathe on a stable workbench and connect it to a 220–240 V supply in accordance with local regulations. Fit the appropriate chuck or workholding device, and select the required belt ratio to achieve a coarse spindle speed range (300–900 or 3,000 rpm). Use the electronic speed control to fine-tune spindle speed within the available band for the chosen belt setting. Mount the workpiece between centres or in the chuck, set the tailstock if needed, and select feeding or threading engagement with the rotary switch. Use suitable cutting tools sized to the tool post (8 × 8 mm) and adjust cross and top slide for accurate cuts. Observe the safety guard and emergency stop features during operation.
Usage recommendations
For accurate machining, start with lower spindle speeds and light cuts when working with harder materials such as steel, and use appropriate cutting fluids. Confirm spindle and chuck runout before precision work, and ensure the bed and slides are clean and lightly lubricated. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for mounting the PF 230 mill/drill head if additional milling capability is required.
