The details:

Smart direct drive:

No belts or pulleys, just choose the material, grab the tool and get to work. The lathe spindle is the rotor of the intelligent direct drive digital motor: it has more than enough power (maximum power of 1.5 HP) and high torque at low speeds, with a wide, easily adjustable speed range.
