Sherline 18-Inch NexGen Benchtop Mill with DRO (Metric)
Features digital readout for table travel
Offers variable spindle speeds of 70-2800 RPM
Includes T-slots for secure hold-down
Ensures precise handwheel adjustments
Powered by robust 90V DC motor
The Sherline 18-Inch NexGen Benchtop Mill with DRO (Metric) is an advanced milling machine designed for precision machining tasks. It features a larger work area and increased rigidity, making it suitable for complex projects that demand high accuracy. The mill is equipped with a digital readout system that enhances precision by displaying the table travel for each of the three axes of movement. This system allows users to reset the readout to zero at any time, providing a clear and accurate measurement of spindle RPM whenever the motor is operational. The digital readout can be configured for either inch or metric measurements, catering to diverse machining needs.
This benchtop mill is ideal for producing small, precision parts from materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Despite its compact size, it offers the precision and accuracy of a full-size machine. The digital readout system simplifies the process of tracking distance and direction, reducing the likelihood of errors and enhancing the overall machining experience. The system also allows for the electronic elimination of backlash by setting its measured value into the readout box for each axis, ensuring precise handwheel movements.
The mill is powered by a robust 90V DC motor with an electronic speed controller, providing a variable spindle speed range from 70 to 2800 RPM. The machine's construction includes an 18-inch mill base with Y-axis leadscrew protection, an extended mill table with T-slots, and an extra-rigid column base. The digital readout box comes with an LCD display, RPM sensor, and all necessary mounting hardware, ensuring easy setup without the need for additional drilling. Special handwheels with electronic encoders are included, allowing for precise adjustments and zero resets with the push of a button.
Note: Ensure proper handling and operation to avoid injury or damage to the machine.
