The MC3032 is a semi-automatic wood turning copy lathe (model MC3032 by Hiwinstar) designed for efficient production of table legs, chair legs and decorative wooden pieces. It combines a user-friendly DSP control system with robust construction for hobbyists, schools, workshops and small-scale furniture manufacturers.
Semi-automatic means the machine automates the copying/profile-following operation (using a pattern or template) while an operator still loads/unloads workpieces and may make adjustments. This speeds repetitive turning jobs while retaining operator control over setup and finishing.
Key specs: power 2.2–4 kW, voltage 380/220 V, max swing diameter 360 mm, max/turned length 1500 mm, spindle speed 2800 r/min, weight 680 kg, overall dimensions 3100 × 950 × 1250 mm, and an Easy Operate DSP control system.
Maximum swing diameter (over the bed) is 360 mm and the maximum turned/working length is 1500 mm.
The machine operates with a motor in the 2.2–4 kW range and is built for 380/220 V supply. Confirm whether your site provides 3-phase or single-phase 220 V and consult an electrician or the supplier to match the correct motor option and wiring.
It uses an Easy Operate DSP control system designed for straightforward programming and operation. The DSP interface simplifies setting copy parameters and spindle control for both beginners and experienced users.
The MC3032 is suitable for a wide range of turning woods used in furniture production — hardwoods and softwoods — and is ideal for table legs, chair legs, balusters and other decorative turned components. Material choice should match tooling and cutting parameters.
The lathe accepts standard wood turning tools and common fixtures such as chucks, live centers and pattern-follower attachments. Specific chuck sizes and accessory models should be confirmed with the supplier to ensure compatibility.
Yes — the product description states the machine includes a machinery test report for quality assurance.
The MC3032 weighs about 680 kg and measures 3100 × 950 × 1250 mm. Due to its weight and size, you will likely need a forklift or lifting equipment for unloading and professional installation to level the machine and connect power and ground.
Regular maintenance includes keeping the bed and moving parts clean, lubricating slideways and bearings per the supplier's schedule, checking belts and drive components, inspecting electrical connections, and replacing worn cutting tools. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance manual for intervals and procedures.
Expect basic safety features such as emergency stop, guarded moving parts and stable mounting. Operators should wear eye protection, dust masks or respirators, hearing protection and avoid loose clothing. Follow supplier safety instructions and local regulations.
It is well suited for hobbyists, woodworking schools, small workshops and furniture manufacturers who need efficient, repeatable production of turned components like table and chair legs.
Yes. As a copy lathe with semi-automatic operation and DSP control, it is designed to produce consistent, repeatable profiles from a template, making it suitable for small to medium production runs of identical parts.
