Frequently Asked Questions

What type of digital readout is included with this mill?

This mill comes equipped with a 3-axis Newall DP700 DRO configured for the quill, providing real-time digital position readouts that make precise setups faster and more repeatable compared to relying on manual graduated dials alone.

What spindle taper does the JVM-836-1 use, and what collet sizes are compatible?

The JVM-836-1 uses an R-8 spindle taper, which is one of the most common and widely supported tapers in manual vertical milling. It accepts collets ranging from 1/8 to 7/8 inch.

What are the available spindle speeds on this mill?

The mill offers 5 spindle speeds ranging from 240 to 1,550 RPM via a step pulley drive system, allowing the operator to select the appropriate speed for various materials and cutting tool diameters.

How does the X-axis powerfeed affect the table's longitudinal travel range?

The table offers 22-1/4 inches of longitudinal travel under manual operation. When the X-axis powerfeed is engaged, the effective powered longitudinal travel is 18 inches, which is still ample for most workpieces while providing consistent, automated feed rates for improved surface finish.
