About this asset

Designed for workshop spatial planning, this industrial metalwork lathe Revit family features a green cast base and machined top slide assembly. The model features a robust open-frame cast machine base finished in industrial olive green paint, supporting an elevated bed rail structure. Along the horizontal bed, simplified geometric components represent the headstock spindle, central tool carriage slide, and opposing tailstock assembly rendered in light grey machined steel tones. Clean profile extrusions define the machine envelope, capturing the essential footprint and operational massing of conventional bench-mounted metal-turning machinery. Sharp profile edges and clear component segmentation give it distinct mechanical character while keeping geometric overhead minimal.

The download is a 276 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this specialty equipment component directly into project environments to establish machine shop layouts and clearance envelopes. The family inserts cleanly onto finished workbenches or equipment pads, allowing MEP and architectural coordinators to assign electrical connection tags or spatial clash zones. Model categories and graphics can be managed via Visibility/Graphic Overrides to balance 2D drafting clarity in floor plan views with 3D coordination models.

This asset is well suited for technical education workshops, vocational training schools, maker spaces, and light industrial manufacturing facilities. Facility planners and design technicians specify machinery models like this for vocational school layouts, maintenance room fit-outs, and engineering fab lab models. It pairs naturally with heavy-duty metal workbenches, tool storage cabinets, drill presses, and industrial ventilation drops across design development and construction documentation phases.
