Stopping the lathe quickly saves time and is safer than the operator using their hand on the hand wheel or workpiece. With Nebula, you can brake quickly and safely: adjustable electronic braking is set in the menu – from a soft 1% to a substantial 19%.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThree Language Menu\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe software menu quickly switches between English, French and German\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003ePower Saving\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNebula has the potential to save up to 80% in power consumption when compared to regular AC\/DC powered lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNebula’s powerful computer-controlled motor also monitors motor conditions, providing the right power to maintain the speed set when varying loads (e.g. chisel cutting force) are applied to the workpiece. As the cutting force varies, the computer only draws enough power to meet the conditions and maintain speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHeavy-duty, precision build with a compact footprint\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNebula has a cast iron stand, with extra-wide, adjustable feet, and weighs in at over 530lbs (240kg).
