Taig Tools MICRO MILL-CNC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Taig Tools MICRO MILL-CNC Vertical Machining Center features a compact 9.0" x 5.0" table designed to support workpieces up to 50 lbs, ideal for precision machining tasks in limited-space environments. It operates with a vertical spindle equipped with a 3/4" SAE 15-degree taper, driven by a 1.00 HP motor rated for 30-minute duty, reaching speeds up to 7,000 RPM. Tooling is manual with a single tool holder, enabling straightforward operation without automatic tool changes. The machine provides three-axis movement (X, Y, and Z): the X-axis has an 8.5" travel range, Y-axis 4.5", and an exceptionally long Z-axis travel of 180" (likely a typo or cumulative measure; most similar machines offer around 6" Z travel). Max feed rates and rapid traverse speeds are not specified. Precision components include ball bearings in all leadscrew bearing blocks and a spindle runout under 0.0002 inches, ensuring high accuracy. The mill's steel and aluminum construction, adjustable brass gibs, and precision ground steel ways contribute to its rigidity and precision. This CNC micro mill is suitable for fine metal, plastic, and wood part fabrication, supporting applications in electronics, model making, and prototype development. It offers a balance of power, accuracy, and compactness, making it a capable desktop CNC mill for small batch production or educational purposes. Its manual tool operation, rigidity, and modest spindle power allow for intricate and reliable machining on small workpieces up to 50 lbs.
