Powermatic PM2020 Short Bed Lathe, 2HP, 1/3PH, 220V 1792020

We know how valuable shop space is when you're churning out project after project. As an ideal alternative to its predecessor the 3520B, the PM 2020 is a short bed lathe that is equally powerful and only half the size. We spared none of the innovative enhancements from model to model as the sliding headstock, variable electronic speed control and the spindle lock are still part of the design. A redesigned tailstock boasts integrated internal storage. Chrome covered handwheels and a self-ejecting laser quill also appear on the list of newly added features. Room for an optional bed extension and a brass tipped sliding hammer knockout rod are the icing on the cake. Save wasted time on rework and space at the workshop or jobsite with the PM2020 short bed lathe by Powermatic. 

Features:

  • Sliding headstock with electronic variable speed and digital RPM readout for accurate speed adjustments
  • Spindle lock and built in spindle indexing on the headstock for drilling hole patterns, routing flutes, and other equally spaced features
  • Redesigned tool rest geometry allows for better chisel movement along the tool rest
  • Laser etched quill is self-ejecting.
  • Brass tipped knockout bar concentrates the action in the sliding handle; the brass tip will not damage drive centers
