The Sherline Manual 14-Inch 8-direction Benchtop Mill (Inch) (EU) is a highly versatile milling machine designed for precision machining tasks. It is particularly suitable for professionals who require flexibility and accuracy in their projects. This benchtop mill offers an unparalleled range of movement, allowing for complex machining operations. In addition to the standard X-, Y-, and Z-axes, the mill provides five additional directions for positioning the headstock spindle, enabling drilling or milling from virtually any angle. The headstock can pivot up to 90 degrees in either direction, and the column bed can rotate side-to-side up to 90 degrees for angled drilling. A special knuckle design allows the column to pivot front to rear, and the ram design of the column base permits the entire ram to pivot up to 90 degrees side-to-side. The column cap can be loosened to allow the ram to move in and out with over 5 inches of travel, offering limitless machining possibilities within the machine's size capabilities.

The 14-inch long base of this mill increases Y-axis travel by an additional 2 inches compared to other models, making it ideal for those who wish to push the boundaries of miniature machining. Despite its compact size, this benchtop mill is capable of producing high-quality precision parts from materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. It combines the convenience of a desktop-sized machine with the precision and accuracy of a full-sized machine.

The mill is equipped with a powerful 90V DC motor and an electronic speed controller, ensuring smooth and efficient operation. The handwheels on the X-, Y-, and Z-axes are resettable and zero adjustable, with laser-engraved aluminum collars for precision. The table features two T-slots, and the machine includes a drill chuck with a key, a Morse arbor with a drawbolt, and a column riser block. Laser-engraved scales on the base and table enhance accuracy, while oil reservoirs on the axes help maintain lubrication of critical parts. A brass leadscrew cover protects the Y-axis leadscrew from debris.

*Note: Ensure proper use of the toggle switch dust cover when working with brass or wood to protect the motor and speed control.
