Hudy Comm Lathes have become synonymous with the most advanced, high-tech comm lathes world-wide. What makes Hudy Comm Lathes superior is the philosophy used in their design, development, and test and production phases. To design our lathes, our engineers use the most advanced 3D CAD system to ensure the best possible performance. Then, computer controlled CNC machines produce the parts to highly accurate specs from high-tech alloys. Next, those parts are assembled by our specifically trained technicians, who then tune these lathes to final factory specifications. As a result, the customer receives, right out of the box, the most advanced, precise, and efficient comm lathe.

Surface of the supports is treated to ensure smooth movement of the tool block.
It is possible to easily and precisely adjust the movement of the cutting tool operating wheel. Tighten or loosen the adjustment screw in the left side of the tool head, which adjusts the pressure on the plastic insert-pad, resulting in fine control of the tightness of tool head movement.
