Review on Newly-Designed Taper Turning Attachment With Live Revolving Center (MT2) By Assorts - Boost Your Lathe Machine Performance by Donny Collins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A Mixed Experience with Assorts' Taper Turning Attachment and Live Revolving Center for Lathe Machines

As someone who has been using a lathe machine for a while, I was excited to try out Assorts' newly-designed taper turning attachment with live revolving center. The product arrived promptly and seemed to be made of sturdy materials, so I had high hopes. Installation was relatively easy, although I did have to make some minor adjustments to ensure everything was properly aligned. Once I started using the attachment, I noticed an improvement in the precision of my taper turning. The live revolving center allowed for smoother, more consistent turns as well. However, I did encounter some issues with the product. For one, it seems to vibrate quite a bit when in use, which can be distracting and make it harder to achieve an accurate cut. I also found that the attachment tended to loosen over time, requiring frequent readjustment. Overall, I think this product has its benefits, but it's not without its flaws. If you're a seasoned lathe machine user looking to boost your performance, it's worth giving a try. But be prepared to make some adjustments and put up with some minor annoyances along the way.

Pros
  • Enhanced Flexibility: This attachment provides greater flexibility in terms of the shapes and sizes of workpieces that can be turned on your lathe machine. Whether you're working with large, heavy-duty pieces or smaller, more intricate components, the taper turning attachment can help you achieve your desired results
Cons
  • High Cost
