Description
Two machines in one. The Proxxon PF 230 Mill/Drill Head converts your Proxxon Precision Lathe PD 250/E into a combined lathe/milling machining center — adding milling and drilling capability to your existing lathe without a separate machine footprint. The mounting bracket and bolts needed to attach the PF 230 to the PD 250/E are included, along with three collets. Six spindle speeds from 280 to 2,200 RPM cover a wide range of milling and drilling operations in steel, aluminum, brass, and plastic.
Note: The Proxxon Precision Lathe PD 250/E is not included — the PF 230 is an attachment for the PD 250/E, sold separately.
