Product Details
The Powermatic 4224B EVS lathe is engineered for large-scale turning and maximum stability. With a 24-inch swing over the bed and 42 inches between centers, this lathe is powered by a robust 3 HP motor operating on 230V single-phase power. Weighing over 900 pounds, the 4224B provides exceptional mass to reduce vibration when handling large or out-of-balance workpieces. Electronic variable speed allows precise control across a wide operating range, while the heavy-duty construction supports demanding shaping and hollowing applications. Designed to expand creative capacity, the 4224B is Powermatic’s most capable lathe for professional and high-output turning environments.
