Large 12-1/2" swing capacity provides the largest capacity in its class
Electronic variable speed (250 - 4,000 RPM) with three pulley speed ranges that provide the required speeds needed to turn a project without changing belt position (not available on model 46-455)
Forward and reversing switch allows the user to achieve a superior finish. Sanding a turned piece with the grain causes the wood fibers to lay down and remain rough. Sanding a turned piece against the grain will cut the wood fibers smooth. Rotating the turned piece in both directions is the way to achieve this super smooth finish. With our competitors the turner would need to remount the workpiece backward to achieve this dual rotation. This is time consuming an often impossible. With the DELTA 46-460 it is a simple flip of the switch (not available on model 46-455)
Belt tensioning system (patent-pending) allows for easy and quick speed changes and sets the belt at the correct tension every time for maximum power transfer and longer tool life
Indexing pin locks the headstock spindle in 24 different positions for fluting and other decorative applications
All cast-iron construction provides stability and is extremely durable
Headstock and tailstock align to within .016" for accurate turning, hollowing and center drilling
Switch and controls are all located close to work zone for easy in-use access
16-1/2" center-to-center capacity allows the user to turn long spindles without the extension
Onboard storage for easy access to adjustment tools
Up-front belt covers for easy access when changing speeds
6-groove belt provides superior power and low-speed torque to turn large objects
