Choosing the Right Baileigh Metal Lathe for Your Shop

Choosing between Baileigh metal lathes comes down to swing capacity, distance between centers, and motor power. Use the tiers below to match a lathe to your shop's work.

Benchtop & Combo Baileigh Metal Lathes

These lathes fit tight spaces without giving up real turning capability. They run on standard 110V power, making them easy to set up in a home shop, school, or maintenance bay.

Baileigh PL-714VS-V2

  • Swing over bed: 7"
  • Distance between centers: 13.8"
  • Motor: 0.75 HP

The PL-714VS-V2 is the right choice for shops with limited space that still need precise variable speed turning.

Baileigh PL-1022VS-V2

  • Swing over bed: 9.75"
  • Distance between centers: 19.6"
  • Motor: 1 HP

The PL-1022VS-V2 gives you more swing and length for larger parts while staying compact enough for a benchtop setup.

Baileigh MLD-1022

  • Swing over bed: 9.75"
  • Distance between centers: 21.62"
  • Motor: 1 HP (dual motor)

The MLD-1022 combines milling, turning, and drilling in one machine for shops that need to do more with less floor space.


Mid-Size Precision Baileigh Metal Lathes

These geared head lathes step up in swing and power for shops turning larger parts on a regular basis. Each one holds tight tolerances through longer production runs.

Baileigh PL-1236E

  • Swing over bed: 12"
  • Distance between centers: 36"
  • Motor: 2 HP

The PL-1236E works well for shops moving up from a benchtop lathe into steady production turning.

Baileigh PL-1340

  • Swing over bed: 13"
  • Distance between centers: 40"
  • Motor: 2 HP

The PL-1340 adds swing and a wider speed range for shops handling a broader mix of part sizes.

Baileigh PL-1640

  • Swing over bed: 16"
  • Distance between centers: 40"
  • Motor: 7.5 HP

The PL-1640 brings three-phase power and a larger spindle bore for heavier stock and demanding cuts.


Full-Size Precision Baileigh Metal Lathes

These lathes are built for shops running long shifts on large parts. Bigger swing, longer bed, and stronger motors keep production moving without sacrificing accuracy.

Baileigh PL-1860

  • Swing over bed: 18"
  • Distance between centers: 60"
  • Motor: 7.5 HP

The PL-1860 handles long workpieces with the swing and bed length production shops depend on.

Baileigh PL-1860E

  • Swing over bed: 18"
  • Distance between centers: 60"
  • Motor: 7.5 HP

The PL-1860E adds a wider thread range and finer feed control for shops doing detailed production work.

Baileigh PL-2080

  • Swing over bed: 20"
  • Distance between centers: 80"
  • Motor: 15 HP

The PL-2080 is built for the largest parts and heaviest cuts a shop will run.


Baileigh Metal Lathes FAQs

What sizes do Baileigh metal lathes come in?

Baileigh metal lathes range from the compact PL-714VS-V2 with a 7" swing up to the PL-2080 with a 20" swing and 80" between centers. Models are available in benchtop, standard, and geared head engine configurations.

What is the difference between the Baileigh benchtop lathes and the precision geared head lathes?

Benchtop models like the PL-714VS-V2 and PL-1022VS-V2 run on 110V and suit small-part work in tight spaces. Precision geared head lathes like the PL-1340 through PL-2080 are full-size machines built for heavier stock, longer between-centers capacity, and production-level accuracy.

Do any Baileigh metal lathes include a digital readout?

Yes. The PL-714VS-V2 includes a DRO for spindle speed monitoring. For DRO availability on other models, check the individual product pages or contact us for details.

What is the Baileigh MLD-1022 and who is it for?

The MLD-1022 is a mill, lathe, and drill combo machine on a compact 110V footprint. It suits shops that need three machining functions in limited space and don't have room for separate dedicated machines.
