This machine is equipped with a Walker electromagnetic LBP fine pole chuck as well as a Walker variable strength chuck control. This also has a factory installed Sony dual axis DRO model LH31A.

The backlash in the cross feed dial is 0.003″-0.004″ throughout the entire length of travel. Much of the original hand flaking is still visible on both V ways as well which indicates low wear.

This is a very heavy duty and rigid roller ball way surface grinder (2020 lbs) and is one of the best made. This machine is made in Japan. To purchase a machine like this new would cost over $25,000. There is a good reason many of the best tool rooms choose Okamoto machines.

1977 Hardinge HLV-H Lathe

Up for sale is this Hardinge HLV-H tool room lathe. This is 230V 3 phase and is 1.5 HP. The spindle is infinitely variable from 125-3000 RPM and it has the tapered Hardinge 4 degree spindle. I bought this machine some time back from a closed factory in Dayton, Ohio and I have never plugged it in or tested it. My intention was to fix and resell but I have not been able to find the time to do so. This is being listed as a “mechanics special” & sold as-is so please purchase knowing it will take some time and work to get up and running. This has an Anilam Wizard 111 DRO on both axis but again, condition is unknown. I do see that the power feed motor was removed at some time but this looks complete otherwise. All the dials and levers move as they should and the spindle rotates freely. This machine is certainly worth the time to fix as the normal price for an HLV-H of this age is $13,000 and up!I have a forklift and will load a trailer or semi at no cost. Palletizing fee is $250. The machine is available for inspection at my shop just outside of Milwaukee, WI.

This lathe also has the large metric threading gear box cover. With a metric banjo and the appropriate change gears this lathe will thread metric thread pitches.

1985 Deckel S11 Universal Cutter Grinder

Up for sale is this Michael Deckel S-11 Universal High Precision Tool & Cutter Grinder. This is a 1985 model and is in very nice condition. Everything is functioning as it should. This is made in Germany and is the finest manual cutter grinder that money can buy. These do not come up for sale often and to purchase a unit new would be over $75,000 from Deckel (now called ISOG). This grinder is equipped with the motorized universal indexing head that is a 40 taper bore. This unit has an adapter to go from 40 taper to a Deckel style collet which is currently in the head. You could mount a chuck or any other tool that has a standard 40 taper profile. Almost everything pivots and moves so the grinding possibilities are endless. I have had much of this machine apart in order to fully service and clean it and it’s in great condition. The grinder has a new drive belt and a full oil flush. All of the slides and movements are extremely smooth and many ride on precision ball bearings. The spindle speed is variable up to 7000 RPM and the rapid spindle elevation feed works great both up and down. At some point this did have the optical measuring unit but it was gone before I had a chance to buy the machine. What’s left is the DRO and mount which do power up and seem to function. I believe this unit was purchased new by General Electric and came from a shuttered plant.

This machine is FOB New Berlin, Wisconsin. The buyer is responsible for all freight and I will assist in any way that I can. I will palletize and ship this machine freight, please ask for a quote. Local pick up is available as well. The grinder is powered up and available to test in my shop at any time. In person Inspections are welcome.

1988 Hardinge HLV-H EM English Metric Lathe

Up for sale is this Hardinge HLV-H EM (English/Metric) Super Precision Tool Room Lathe. This is in very good condition and has never been repainted. This was ordered from the factory in Hardinge white and grey colors. I purchased this machine at auction from a closed machine shop and have done a considerable amount of work to get the machine to where it is today.

This is a late 1988 machine and it has many late model features such as hardened and ground cross slide ways, tapered Hardinge spindle, wide bed plate with teflon lined carriage, pre-drilled DRO mounting points, ball bearing carriage rack gear and more. This machine is 230V 3 Phase but it is dual voltage so it can be changed to 460V if desired.

When received, the left cross slide wear strip was delaminating from the cast iron lathe carriage (common problem) and causing unacceptable binding in the cross slide. The carriage was removed and disassembled and both wear strips were peeled off. The surfaces were prepared using factory procedures and the strips were epoxied back into place. Both the hardened wear strips and dovetail surfaces were then ground in situ. The cross slide & gib were then hand scraped and fitted to the machine. As I was doing this work I elected to have many of the carriage surfaces reground for aesthetic purposes in addition to fully cleaning the machine. The Teflon sheet on the bottom of the carriage was in good condition and so it was left untouched. The Bijur oil pump has been completely rebuilt with new o-rings, filters, and gaskets and all oil metering units, o-rings, and copper tubes have been replaced with new. New neoprene way wipers have been installed and the apron hand wheel bushings have been replaced. Both variable speed drive belts have been replaced and the V.S. countershaft bearings have been replaced as well. Lastly, the dual dial compound has been disassembled, cleaned, & lubricated. I’m sure there are other things I’m missing but that is the general overview of what I have done to this machine.

After all this work the machine is now in excellent mechanical condition and is ready to be used right away. The spindle is whisper quiet and runs great at all speeds and the power feeds work great in all speeds and directions. The machine is very clean and tight and it now looks great too. Lathe comes with pictured tooling. This has a factory installed Acu-Rite DRO as well as a factory work light. Other accessories are available such as taper attachment, follow rest, steady rest, chucks, tool post, etc.
