Colchester Triumph 2000 lathe, 1971. The first production Triumph 2000 lathe was built in February 1968. The lathe was a revolution in styling and specification, with distinctive 'square' styling, ergonomically-designed controls and a bright exterior finish.The Triumph 2000 acquired a reputation as a robust, well-made lathe with a combination of capacity, speed and ease of use. This made it ideal as a general-purpose industrial lathe and, because of its modest price, it was also affordable by small machine shops and ambitious experienced amateurs.
