Jet 690161 Vertical Mill Acu-rite 200S Dro X Y Powerfeed

Product Description

The JET 690161 is a vertical knee mill configured with the ACU-RITE 200S digital readout system and both X-axis and Y-axis powerfeeds installed. This machine is built for precision metalworking in tool rooms, job shops, and production environments where accurate milling, drilling, and boring operations are required. The ACU-RITE 200S DRO provides real-time positional feedback on all active axes, reducing setup time and improving repeatability. The factory-installed X and Y powerfeeds allow the operator to drive table movement at controlled feed rates without manual cranking, reducing fatigue on long cuts and improving surface finish consistency. Installation and commissioning are typically performed by a qualified millwright or machine tool technician.

The JET 690161 is suited for residential machine shops, vocational training facilities, and commercial job shops requiring a full-featured vertical knee mill. The integrated ACU-RITE 200S DRO and dual-axis powerfeed package make this configuration ready for immediate production use without requiring separate accessory installation. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous material milling operations where repeatable positioning and powered table travel are priorities.

Key Features

• ACU-RITE 200S digital readout system factory-installed for real-time axis position display
• X-axis powerfeed installed for automated longitudinal table travel
• Y-axis powerfeed installed for automated cross table travel
• Vertical knee mill configuration suitable for milling, drilling, and boring operations
• Heavy-duty construction rated at 2200 pounds for rigidity and vibration damping during cuts

Compatibility

Designed as a self-contained vertical knee milling machine. Accessory compatibility for tooling, collets, and vises should be verified against the JET JTM-1 spindle taper and table T-slot specifications documented in the machine manual.

Installation Notes

Installation of this machine should be performed by a qualified millwright or industrial equipment technician. At 2200 pounds, rigging and placement require appropriate lifting equipment and a level, reinforced floor capable of supporting the load. Electrical connection must be made by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for the machine nameplate voltage and amperage. Verify all powerfeed and DRO wiring connections are intact after rigging before applying power.
