APPLICATIONS
SPR’s precision linear mills are versale, ecient, and designed with the end user in mind. The mills are
designed with ball screws and rails in all three axis, X-Y-Z, to replace older dove tail models. Mulple
spindle posions allow for a greater range of milling adjustments whether it is horizontal, vercal and/or
angular. This allows the machine to produce CNC quality work in eld/shop condions depending on the
job scope.
When you receive the Linear Mill:
The Linear Mill is generally shipped in one crate. Inspect the machine for shipping damage. Verify
that all of the parts listed below, or on the Bill of Materials, are present. If any parts are missing, or
if you have quesons regarding the Linear Mill, please contact a Superior Plant Rentals or SPR York
locaon nearest you immediately.
