European-made CNC milling machine with 6 spindle speeds from 180 thru 2500rpm. Double roller bearings mount each of the recirculating ball screws on all three axes, driven by powerful stepper motors. Approximate machine travels are X 290mm, Y 100mm, Z 200mm.

The mechanical design is almost identical to our manual model 24320, carrying the same 400W condenser AC motor, cast iron dovetail X and Y ways with 5-screw gib adjustment, rotatable head and 6-way belt speed adjustment.

The sturdy vertical column has dovetail ways, 5-screw gib adjustment, sliding calibrated rule and telescopic leadscrew covers. Our new milling head can be rotated left or right up to 90 degrees, to a protractor scale. It includes a drilling quill, usable both vertical and when the head is rotated. An available fine feeder option allows accurate quill motion, beyond those of the hand lever. The quill may be clamped when not manually engaged.

The spindle nose is fitted with a Euro collet nut and we include collets 6mm 8mm 10mm 12mm. The vertical motion quill lever has a travel indicator thimble which may be zeroed at any point.

Our compound XY table of plane-milled steel has 3 full-length tee-slots 12 x 6 x 5mm and there is a second sliding, calibrated rule on the table's long axis. Model 24342 includes high-reliability AUSTRALIAN SUPPORTED 4-AXIS CONTROLLER.

Optional 4th axis UT 400/CNC is available.

By appointment, you may inspect the FF 500/CNC in our Tuggerah Business Park showroom.
