Used Turret Mills

What is a Turret Mill

  A Turret Mill, also known as a Vertical Mill, is a versatile type of milling machine that features a stationary spindle and a movable table. The spindle holds the cutting tools, while the table can move in multiple directions to perform various milling operations on workpieces. Turret mills are commonly used in engineering, sheet metal and manufacturing industries to mill planes, slopes, grooves, and other features on medium to small-sized parts Their compact design, flexibility, and ability to perform both vertical and horizontal milling make them a valuable tool in precision machining applications. 

Main Components of a Turret Mill

The main components of a Turret Mill are a robust stationary spindle and a precisely controlled movable table. The high-grade spindle securely holds and rotates cutting tools for efficient milling. The table's X, Y, and Z-axis motion enables complex 3D machining of intricate parts. A rotating milling head, coupled with an articulating rocker arm, provides superior tool positioning flexibility. This precise movement control and rigid construction allow turret mills to deliver exceptional surface finishes and tight tolerances across various industrial applications.
