JET JTM-2 Mill with 3-Axis Newall DP700 DRO (Quill) is a precision vertical milling machine engineered by JET for demanding metalworking applications where accuracy, rigidity, and repeatable performance are essential. Equipped with a 3-axis Newall DP700 digital readout on the quill, this step-pulley R-8 mill delivers the positional precision and mechanical durability professional machinists and toolmakers require for milling, drilling, and boring operations.

Key Features

• Certified Meehanite castings provide exceptional rigidity and vibration damping for superior surface finishes and long-term dimensional stability
• Heavy duty splined motor drive transfers power smoothly and reliably to the spindle under demanding cutting conditions
• Internal coolant tank built into the base for use with coolant system (coolant pump not included)
• Large diameter quill is chromed for a smooth, wear-resistant surface that extends service life and maintains precision over time
• One-shot lubrication system simplifies routine maintenance and ensures all critical surfaces stay properly lubricated
• Precision bored and honed milling head delivers tight tolerances and consistent spindle alignment
• Precision hardened and ground ways ensure accurate, smooth movement across all axes
• Spindle head is internally cooled to prevent seizing and maintain performance during extended machining cycles
• Three-stage power downfeed with automatic stop offers controlled feed rates of .0015, .003, and .006 IPR for consistent, repeatable drilling and boring operations
• Tolerance test sheet included, confirming each machine meets JET's precision standards before leaving the factory
• 3-axis Newall DP700 DRO (quill) provides real-time positional data for fast, accurate setups and reduced measurement error
• 8 spindle speeds ranging from 80 to 2,720 RPM accommodate a wide variety of materials and cutting tools
• R-8 spindle taper with collet capacity from 1/8 to 7/8 inch for broad tooling compatibility
• Backed by the industry-leading JET Two Year Warranty

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of DRO is included with this mill, and what axes does it cover?

This mill comes equipped with a 3-axis Newall DP700 Digital Readout configured for the quill, providing precise positional feedback on three axes to speed up setups and reduce measurement errors during machining operations.

What are the available quill downfeed rates and how does the automatic stop work?

The three-stage power downfeed system offers three selectable feed rates - .0015, .003, and .006 IPR - and includes an automatic stop feature that halts the downfeed at a predetermined depth, enabling consistent, repeatable drilling and boring without constant manual intervention.

What spindle taper does the JTM-2 use, and what is the collet capacity range?

The JTM-2 uses an R-8 spindle taper, which is one of the most common standards in vertical milling, and accepts collets ranging from 1/8 inch to 7/8 inch, providing broad compatibility with standard milling and drilling tooling.

Is a coolant pump included with the built-in coolant tank?

The mill features an internal coolant tank built into the base designed for use with a coolant system; however, the coolant pump is not included and would need to be sourced separately to complete the coolant system setup.
