AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Up for auction is a remarkable piece of European engineering: a vintage Emco Unimat multipurpose lathe. This machine is in near-mint/pristine condition, considering it is over 60 years old. It has been meticulously cleaned, lubricated, and serviced, making it fully functional and ready for use or collection.
This is the "SL" or "DB" model, renowned among watchmakers, model engineers, and tool collectors for its modularity and high-quality Austrian craftsmanship.
Technical Highlights:
Reversible Motor: Unique feature allowing the chuck to rotate both clockwise and counter-clockwise, providing versatility for various machining and threading tasks.
Full Service: The machine has been completely disassembled, cleaned of old grease, and freshly lubricated. All movements are smooth and precise.
Originality: Retains its authentic hammered finish and original badges.
Comprehensive Accessories Included:
This set is exceptionally complete, which is rare for a machine of this age:
Tailstock with a drill chuck and dedicated key.
Milling/Drilling Vice: Mini-vice for vertical or horizontal milling setups.
Threading Set: A full set of taps and dies (M-series) for precision threading.
Transport Box: The original storage/transportation box, ensuring the machine's safety and historical value.
3-Jaw Chuck: Mounted and ready for work.
Condition Report:
Mechanical: 10/10 (Everything works perfectly).
Cosmetic: 9/10 (Minor signs of age, but extraordinary for its vintage).
Completeness: High (Includes essential rare accessories).
Note to Collectors: Finding an Emco Unimat in this state of preservation with its original box and milling accessories is becoming increasingly difficult. This is a true "investment grade" tool.
