Built with attention to detail for dependable CNC milling operations for years to come

The 12" x 58" CNC Knee Mill features 3-axis table movement with built-in X-, Y-, and Z-axis servo motors. It is constructed with high-grade Meehanite-processed castings.

The saddle and knee ways are hand-scraped and Turcite-coated with wide dovetails for maximum support and accuracy throughout the full range of movement.

To ensure quality results, the mill is equipped with premium angular contact spindle bearings that are rated to P4 tolerances. The spindle taper is NT40 and has servo motor downfeed with a variable feed rate between 0-0.98 FPM and spindle travel of 3.5".

The machine uses a Delta VFD-B inverter with a 5HP induction motor to provide true variable spindle speed from 50-5000 RPM.

The headstock is mounted on a wide dovetail-way ram with 20" of travel and 320° rotating capability. The headstock itself can swivel 90° left/right or 45° forward/back so it can be positioned for nearly any setup needed.

To reduce the time spent doing daily lubrication, this milling machine is outfitted with an electronic lubrication system that automatically lubricates the most critical areas.

A quality Fagor 8055i control panel with excellent electrical components and attention to detail give dependable CNC milling operations.

The CNC Knee Mill includes a circulating coolant system with the pump and reservoir in the column base.
