Let's See Your Mill

[Kennyv]

I have a 2 fold Q those who perhaps have the new PM 25MV ( Variable speed new head belt design) and alos those who have a PM 932M. Mill

Yes I know comparing Clementine’s to Oranges is like comparing BHP to china HP to Taiw HP to New USA to Good ole USA HP . NOT THE SAME IN ANY WAY
Soooo. taken in consideration I would like to ask about HP regarding low end toque and machine capabilities not rpm feed and speed. Keeping that in mind .

Note: On my New PM25 MV I have only drilled but a few holes perhaps tapped ect.... and took off .030-040 from parts still not sue of machines capabilities and if in fact it can handle the new 1" index able mill cutters. I recently purchased. Using RNMG SNMG TNMG style inserts

Those who own owned PM 25MV ( Variable speed new head belt design) what type of depth and metal removal increments are we talking about that my current machine is capable of? lets say mild steel and 6062 Alum?

And same question would apply for the 932M Mill with the China made 1.5 HP motor?


Id really like to hear some feedback to help me make big decision if im gona stay where im at else sacrifice BIG time to upgrade .Already way over budget and still not done with machine Purchasing. Buying a New 10x22 and tooling next month .

Thanks again
