Habegger/Neotor (Swiss)
Habegger are probably better known for
their range of automatic machines, however, they also produced
a range of machines that directly competed with Schaublin plain
lathes. The JH102 lathes were practically identical to the Schaublin
102 employing W20 and W25 spindles and beds of identical design
and dimensions. Like the earlier Schaublin 102s the JH102 also
employed a 2 degree socket in the tailstock, however later machines
had 1 and 2 MT tailstocks. All accessories from the Schaublin
102 lathe will fit the Habegger machine including tailstocks.
Later, Habegger also offered the JH102 with a 5C collet spindle.
The Habegger JH70 principally differed from the Schaublin 70
in that it employed a scaled down JH102 trapezoidal type bed
otherwise it was practically identical.
The JH102 was offered as either a bench
or cabinet mounted machine while the JH70 was only available
as a bench mounted lathe. Habegger produced a very similar range
of accessories to Schaublin.
