Turret Milling Machines

Three machines. The head swivels 90° and tilts 45°, the saddle ways are TF-lined, and table and slideway surfaces are hardened to HRC45-55.

Turret milling machines

Knee-type turret mills for toolroom and jobbing work, with tables from 230 × 1067 mm to 330 × 1500 mm. The head swivels 90° and tilts 45°, and the saddle ways are TF-lined with table and slideway surfaces hardened to HRC45-55.

Choosing A Lathe

Bed Type Follows The Part

Sixty models is a lot to read through. Send the part instead: the largest diameter, the length, the material and the tolerance, and we will name the two or three that fit and say why.

  1. Flat bed for weight

    A wide flat bed carries heavy, long work and damps the cut. It is the right choice for shafts, rolls and anything needing a steady rest, and it is easier to load with a crane.

  2. Slant bed for chips and speed

    Chips fall into the conveyor instead of piling on the ways, and the turret sits closer to the spindle centreline. Best for repeat production of medium parts.

  3. Vertical for diameter

    Once the part is heavier than it is long, gravity works with you rather than against you. Flanges, rings, wheels and gearbox cases belong on a table, not between centres.

  4. Y-axis when it saves a setup

    A power turret and a C-axis pay for themselves the moment the part would otherwise move to a machining centre for a keyway, a flat or a cross hole.

Every model page carries the specification we hold on file. Foundation drawings and ISO 230-2 acceptance figures come with the quotation.

Buying FAQs

Turret Milling Machines Questions, Answered

What is a knee-type turret mill still best at?

Toolroom and jobbing work: squaring blocks, slotting keyways, second operations, fixture making. The knee puts feel in the operator's hands, setup takes minutes, and no programme is written. Tables run from 230 × 1067 mm upward across the three machines.

Would a small VMC not replace a turret mill?

For batch work, yes. For the daily churn of one-off jobs a toolroom sees, the turret mill wins on setup time and cost per cut — no programming queue, no proving out. Most shops that own both use the VMC for parts and the turret mill for everything around the parts.

What spindle and feed options do these turret mills carry?

Variable spindle speeds sized for the head, power feeds where catalogued, and the machine page for each model states table size, travels and taper. Tell us what tooling you already rack and the quotation matches the taper rather than obliging you to rebuy holders.

Are these mills accurate enough for tool and fixture work?

That is the job they are built for: the castings are aged like every structure here, ways are finished properly, and geometry is inspected before shipment. A turret mill that cannot square a fixture true would poison every machine downstream of it — so this one has to be right.
