Frequently Asked Questions

What spindle taper does the JET JTM-2 use, and what collet sizes are compatible?

The JTM-2 uses an R-8 spindle taper, which is one of the most widely used standards in the industry, ensuring broad tooling compatibility. The collet capacity ranges from 1/8 inch to 7/8 inch, accommodating a wide variety of end mills, drill chucks, and other tooling.

Does the JET JTM-2 include a coolant pump?

The JTM-2 features an internal coolant tank built into the base, which is designed for use with a coolant system. However, the coolant pump is not included and would need to be sourced separately.

What are the available quill downfeed rates on the JTM-2?

The JTM-2 offers three-stage power downfeed with quill down feed rates of .0015, .003, and .006 inches per revolution (IPR). The system also includes an automatic stop feature for repeatable depth control.

How many spindle speeds does the JET JTM-2 offer, and what is the speed range?

The JTM-2 provides 8 spindle speeds with a range spanning from 80 RPM to 2,720 RPM. This broad range allows operators to select the appropriate cutting speed for a wide variety of materials and tooling diameters.
