Jet 690174 Vertical Milling Machine X-axis Powerfeed

Product Description

The JET 690174 is a vertical milling machine sold as the JVM-836-3 model, factory-configured with an X-axis powerfeed unit installed. Vertical knee mills of this class are used for precision face milling, end milling, drilling, and boring operations on ferrous and non-ferrous stock. The integrated X-axis powerfeed automates table travel along the longitudinal axis, reducing operator fatigue during long cuts and improving feed consistency. At 1620 pounds, this is a full-size floor machine intended for professional shop environments. Installation and commissioning are performed by qualified millwrights or machine tool technicians.

The JVM-836-3 configuration is suited for job shops, tool-and-die operations, maintenance departments, and vocational training facilities that require a versatile vertical knee mill with powered table feed capability. The machine is designed for three-phase electrical service, consistent with its model designation suffix. It is appropriate for production and prototype work on a variety of metal and rigid non-metal materials.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct OEM unit for use as the JET JVM-836-3 vertical knee milling machine platform. Consult the machine documentation for compatible tooling, collets, and accessory specifications.

Installation Notes

Machine installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or rigging crew given the 1620-pound shipping weight — proper lifting equipment and floor anchoring are required. Electrical connection to three-phase service must be made by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. Verify spindle rotation direction before first operation. Power down and lock out the main disconnect before servicing the powerfeed unit or any drive components.
