CNC Micro Mill
Product Code : JA-CTM-9071
The CNC Micro Mill (SKU JA-CTM-9071) is a desktop CNC milling machine that produces anything from simple to complex geometric forms in wood, plastic, aluminium or steel. It combines ground steel slideways with adjustable brass gibs, a hard anodised aluminium table and stepper-driven lead screws, and it reads standard G-code. Engineering colleges, polytechnics and design studios use it to teach CNC milling on a bench. It is supplied by JaincoLab as a complete system with drive electronics and control software.
Specifications
The mill gives 300 mm X, 146 mm Y and 153 mm Z travel, 0.003 mm stepping resolution and 0.01 mm mechanical repeatability, with a 1/4 HP spindle running from 1100 to 11000 rpm.

Applications of the desktop CNC micro mill
The micro mill is sized for a classroom bench, so each group of students can run real G-code programs and cut parts without a full-size machine shop.
- CNC milling practicals in mechanical and production engineering courses
- G-code programming and toolpath verification exercises
- Machining small parts in wood, plastic, aluminium and steel
- Prototype and project work in design and innovation labs
- Demonstrating stepper-motor drives and CNC control electronics
Scope of supply and ordering
The listing covers the micro mill with 1/4 HP spindle motor, pulley set and drive belt, one collet (3, 4 or 6 mm) with collet closer, electronic chopper driver unit, input/output port, stepping motors, control software interface, printer cable and power cable.
