jet-bench-grinder

Jet Bench Grinder

Mounted wheels made of fine and coarse abrasive compounds for grinding and abrating.
burrking-belt-grinder

Burrking Belt Grinder

Abrasive belt used for grinding, deburring, linishing, and finishing any metal material.
clausing-cold-saw

Clausing Cold Saw

Chop saw for rough cutting through various kinds of metals, which are mounted in a stationary vice.

Jet Vertical Mill

Used to reductively machine metal in a highly precise manner. The Jet JVM-836-3 utilizes a 3-axis digital XYZ table to accurately machine metal parts.
metal-shears

Shears

Blade mounted on a table for feeding sheet metal into in order to cut with precision.
acer-metal-lathe

Metal Lathe

Used for producing and boring into round or cylindrical pieces of metal. A rotating chuck is used to gradually cut away material to produce a cylindrical shape.
sheet-metal-roller
