Difference between sherline lathes

what is the difference between RB-She-200 lathe and RB-She-367 lathe?

Hello @FK67 and welcome to the RobotShop forum,

The difference is that the Sherline 4530C Metric Lathe 3.5x8 inch Package w/ “Zero” Adjustable Handwheels (EU) (RB-She-367) includes a Noise Suppression Filter and the Sherline 4530C Metric Lathe 3.5"x8" Package w/ “Zero” Adjustable Handwheels (EU) (RB-She-200) doesn’t.

The noise suppression filter goes in-line between the speed control and the wall plug. This makes Sherline machines compliant with CE regulations regarding electronic noise. All machines shipped to countries requiring CE compliance must be equipped with these filters.

Countries Requiring CE Compliance

CE requirements for electric motors dictate that a noise suppression filter is installed to meet their standards. This filter meets those specifications, allowing Sherline machines to be imported into countries in the European Union (EU), as well as others requiring CE certification. All machines shipped to those countries will be supplied with these filters already installed. This adds an additional cost to the lathe or mill, but it does allow us to apply the CE label to our product. If ordering the filter along with a machine, the filter will be pre-wired to the electronic speed control at the Sherline factory.

thank you very much, very clear explanation

Soory, I have another question:

if I buy a sherline lathe from the robotshop site and I have it shipped to Italy, do I have to pay customs duties? Which site in europe should I buy from in order not to pay them?
