The Axminster Professional AP460WL is a floor-standing cast iron lathe built for spindle and bowl work. Its 187 kg mass keeps vibration down on large or unbalanced blanks, and the 1.5 kW inverter-driven motor holds torque at low speeds. The swivelling, sliding headstock and swing-away tailstock give outboard and end-of-bed access that many fixed-head lathes in this class lack. It suits turners stepping up to bigger bowls and platters who want a stable, versatile machine rather than a light benchtop unit.

The Axminster Professional AP460WL is a medium-sized, floor-standing woodturning lathe for spindle work and bowl turning. It has a heavy cast iron construction with 187 kg of mass, which adds stability and reduces vibration, including with large or unbalanced timber.
It has 610 mm between centres and a 460 mm swing over the bed. The supplied 410 mm bed extension and 220 mm tool rest extension increase its capacity for larger work such as platters and bowls. The headstock swivels through 180° with multiple locking positions for bowl turning. It also slides along the bed for outboard turning at the end. The tailstock swings away for hollowing or outboard work, and 24-position indexing supports decorative and segmented turning.
A 1.5 kW motor delivers consistent torque across the speed range, including at low speeds. Electronic inverter-controlled variable speed and dual belt ratios cover 0-1,350 rpm and 0-3,500 rpm. The magnetic control unit can be placed anywhere on the lathe bed or headstock. It has on/off buttons, a speed control dial and a forward/reverse switch.
