Jet Equipment JT9-894315 Vertical Milling Machine

Product Description

The JET EQUIPMENT JT9-894315 is a vertical knee milling machine configured with a 2-axis ACU-RITE 203 digital readout (DRO), XYZ-axis JET powerfeeds, and a USA-powered draw bar. This machine is built for precision metal removal in job shop and industrial environments. The spindle assembly is hand-scraped to a minimum of 16 points per inch on the ways, a process that tightens geometric tolerances and improves long-term accuracy. Weighing 2,200 pounds, this is a full-size floor machine intended for installation by qualified millwrights or machine tool technicians.

The JT9-894315 is suited for tool rooms, production shops, and maintenance departments requiring a fully equipped vertical mill out of the crate. The included ACU-RITE 203 DRO provides 2-axis position readout for repeatable part programming. XYZ-axis powerfeeds reduce operator fatigue on long table feeds. The powered draw bar speeds tool changes and reduces the risk of drawbar thread damage compared to manual slug-it methods. This configuration targets shops that need a ready-to-run machine without sourcing and mounting accessories separately.

Key Features

• Hand-scraped ways to a minimum of 16 points per inch for tight spindle and table tolerances
• 2-axis ACU-RITE 203 digital readout included for precise position measurement
• XYZ-axis JET powerfeeds standard on all three table axes
• USA-powered draw bar for faster, consistent tool changes
• Spindle safety guard included as standard equipment
• CSA/CUS certified for operator safety compliance

Compatibility

Designed as a complete OEM-configured vertical knee mill package. Specific compatible tooling, collet systems, or replacement components should be verified against JET EVS-949 series documentation.

Installation Notes

At 2,200 pounds, this machine requires a forklift or overhead crane for positioning and must be set on a level, structurally adequate concrete floor. Electrical connection should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for the machine voltage and phase configuration. Verify the power draw bar and powerfeed electrical circuits are fully de-energized before performing any spindle or table service. Consult the JET installation manual for leveling, lubrication, and break-in procedures before first use.
