Overview: The HiTorque Mini Mil has a 500W brushless spindle drive motor providing tremendous low-end torque and variable speeds from 100-2500 RPM continuously. The mill has a solid column and air spring head support. There are no gears to shift which reduces noise and improves performance. The table is 18.1″ x 4.7″ (460 mm x 120 mm) and 30% more travel than competitors. Also, resettable feed dials zero at any point, drill press handles and a Z-axis fine feed with 0.001″ resolution.
Features: 500 watt brushless motor, large X-Y table, R8 spindle, solid column, gas strut on Z-axis, Z-axis fine feed, e-stop safety switch, adjustable z-axis stop, adjustable gibs, R8 to 33JT drill chuck arbor with 1/2″ drill chuck, and three radial handles for drilling.
Included Items: Mini Mill Users Guide, two T-slot nuts, two end wrenches, four hex (Allen) wrenches, one spanner wrench, oil can (plastic), one 1/2″ drill chuck, and R8 arbor.
Tips: This mill has a solid column. While a tilting column seems to be a feature, they are easily knocked out of tram and less rigid. While it is harder to tram in the X-axis because you must use shims, it is not as easy to knock it out of tram. The solid column has thicker walls than the tilting column, and a stiffer joint where it joins the base, so the column is significantly more rigid than the tilting column. That is why all mills from LittleMachineShop.com are solid column.
