The Sherline 12-Inch Deluxe Tabletop Mill CNC-Ready (Metric) (EU) is a precision-engineered milling machine designed for both hobbyists and professionals who require high-quality results in their machining projects. This CNC-ready mill is ideal for creating small, precision parts and is capable of cutting materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Despite its compact desktop size, it offers the precision and accuracy of a full-size machine, making it suitable for light-industrial and home-shop use.
This mill is equipped with factory-installed stepper motor mounts, allowing for seamless integration with CNC systems. However, it is important to note that stepper motors, a computer, and CNC software are not included and must be installed separately. The machine includes handwheels for each axis, which can be mounted to the rear shaft of dual-shaft stepper motors for manual control when needed.
The mill features a powerful 90V DC motor with an electronic speed controller, providing a spindle speed range from 70 to 2800 RPM. It includes a 12-inch base and a 2.75-inch by 13.0-inch table with two T-slots, offering ample space for various machining tasks. Additional components such as pulleys, a drive belt, hexagonal keys, spindle bars, and a gib removal tool are included to facilitate setup and operation.
The machine is designed with oil reservoirs on the X/Y axes and the Z axis to ensure critical parts remain lubricated, enhancing performance and longevity. A brass leadscrew cover protects the rear of the Y-axis leadscrew from debris, further contributing to the machine's durability. The headstock can rotate 90 degrees left or right, providing additional versatility in machining operations.
Note: Ensure proper installation of stepper motors and CNC components before operation to avoid potential hazards.
