All parts and accessories are still available from Cowells. Massive Cast Iron Construction. Precision Angular Contact Bearings. An extremely accurate and robust Vertical Milling Machine of massive cast iron construction to absorb the vibration and stress of milling. Capable of machining tough material with accuracy, the Mill may also be used for co-ordinate drilling. The machine has a 4000 rpm electronic variable speed control and positive non-slip toothed pulleys and belt drive. Each machine is individually hand fitted by an experienced engineer to exacting tolerances. Of a simple but efficient design, the Cowell’s vertical miller has been in production for many years and proved to be an accurate and reliable – if rather expensive machine. However, as this type of machine is rare, demand for second-hand examples always exceeds supply and consequently, if kept in pristine condition, do represent an excellent investment.
