Sherline Deluxe 8-Direction Mill Package 2000A
Deluxe 8-Direction Mill Package
The deluxe 8-direction milling machine offers the most versatility of any Sherline mill. In addition to X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis travels, there are five additional directions to do drilling or milling on your part from virtually any angle. The headstock can pivot up to 90° in either direction. The column bed can rotate side-to-side up to 90° in either direction for angled drilling. A special knuckle allows the column to pivot front to rear.
The “ram” design of the column base also allows the entire ram to be pivoted up to 90° side-to-side. Loosening the column cap allows the ram to be moved in and out with over 5.5″ of travel. With this many directions of movement, the machining possibilities are virtually limitless within the size capabilities of the machine. The 14″ long base also increases Y-axis travel by an additional 2″ compared to the Model 5400 mill. This is the mill for those who want to take their miniature machining abilities to the extremes.
Standard equipment for the mill includes:
- A powerful 90V DC motor with electronic speed controller
- 14″ base
- 2-1/2″ (63mm) adjustable “zero” handwheel on the Z-axis and 2″ (51mm) adjustable “zero” handwheels on the X- and Y-axes
