Laguna REVO 12|16 Lathe (MLAREVO1216EVS)

Overview

The new Laguna 12|16 Lathe is a revolution when it comes to mini lathes. For the size of a mini lathe, this lathe packs a big punch!

REVOLUTIONARY NEW CONTROL PRODUCES SUPERIOR TORQUE

Pulse Width Modulation efficiently delivers more torque at low- to mid-range speeds, minimizing RPM loss. PWM delivers power to a DC motor through a succession of voltage pulses rather than adjusting voltage or current. PWM vastly improves efficiency at low- to mid-range speeds and substantially decreases the loss of torque under load

HOW DOES PULSE WIDTH MODULATION DIFFER FROM STANDARD CONTROLLERS?

Typically a controller limits voltage or current to adjust the speed. This limitation results in less torque being available especially at low to mid-range speeds. The voltage not being used is converted to heat that can damage electrical components after prolonged use


    Hazards & Safety

     Crush Hazard (feet).  Any number of things in the woodshop can seriously injure your feet if you drop something on them. Wear eye protection (ANSI Z87 preferred) at all times in the woodshop.
     

    Moving Parts. Many of our power tools have rotating parts, gears, belts, blades, pulleys, gantries, etc.  You should always make sure you have secured loose hair/clothing/accessories at all times in the woodshop.  Additionally, do not wear any kind of gloves when using mechanical equipment, due to snagging risks.

      Wear closed-toe shoes at all times in the woodshop.
     Sharp Implements.  There are many things in the woodshop that can puncture and cut skin.  Many of our tools make louder than normal noises, so wear hearing protection as needed.
     Fume/Ventilation Hazard.  Fine sawdust/particulate, fumes from paint, stains, and other chemicals, and fumes from other areas (such as the metalworking area) may be present.  Always use the available dust collection and ventilation systems.  Wear breathing protection where fumes or fine particulate dust is present.
