A miller of the same type, but having only the two vertical spindles, made by the Niles Tool Works Company, is shown in Fig. 5. This machine is well adapted to profiling, the spindles having a 6-inch vertical adjustment, with power cross feed, and each saddle carries a weight of the machine is approximately 15 tons. The table has the Sellers drive and has a feed range of from 3/16 inch to 10 inches per minute. All four heads can be driven at once; the horizontal heads can be driven independently of the vertical, and vice versa, and the former or copying attachment. The table is 20 inches wide and is driven by a spiral pinion and rack, insuring the steady movement which is so essential to successful milling. |
