Consequently it is highly unlikely you could fit a vertical head without reconfiguring the machine and drive. But I’ll give it a go once I got home from work.įirst of all the manufacturers plate starts with HM and in the simple Archdale terminology this stands for Horizontal Milling. Unfortunately these books are not available. Instinct led me to search for ‘Archdale machine tools’ I’d like to do my homework before I get it so can get right to it. I still don’t know what exactly this machine is. Maybe my first project on this machine will be cutting some 45 bevel gears. Its got some vertical “drill attachment” on it at the moment but I doubt it’s rigidity and the repeatability. But I’ve seen universal head for these type of machines. You should be able to rip some metal off with that! I reckon finding a vertical head for it will be like looking for hens teeth though but with the twin over arm plenty of scope to make something up. Lathes website don’t really help either.Īlso if we can ID it, can anyone suggest what kind of vertical head is out there if any? Now it might be some help, but tbh I can’t really find anything online. Maybe yous could help me as to what exactly this machine is. I don’t have the machine at my shop with me just yet so can’t ID it. The owner is a lady and can’t be of any help. Just recently bought an Archdale Horizontal Mill, but don’t know anything about it.
