The BM16 is a compact bench mounted morticer, introducing accuracy, ease of use and industrial features at an affordable price.
The table is finely ground cast iron and moves smoothly and effortlessly front to back and side to side on machined dovetail slides. To ensure unsurpassed accuracy, the slides are fully adjustable using the easily accessible gib strips. An important feature of the table is the heavy and solid clamp, the likes of which are usually only seen on more industrial machines, which holds workpieces extremely securely, ensuring no movement during operation. The clamp is also repositionable, allowing a wide range of timber sizes to be accommodated.
Movement of the chisel is similarly smooth and accurate, with a gas spring and dovetail slides, which feature adjustable gib strips, allowing cuts to be made with ease and precision.
To further increase accuracy and speed of use, the BM16 also features sideways movement stops as well as vertical movement stops. These stops allow the depth and width of mortices to be set in order to achieve consistent results again and again.
Adjustable sliding Strips: These are fitted to the column and the tables in both forward/reverse and lateral movement systems. Also features locking bolts when the table needs to be kept securely in one position.
Gas Springs: Gas springs provide smooth movement and help the headstock return to position.
Cast Iron Clamp: With 3 sets of holes in the table and slots on the clamp base, a wide range of positions can be set to accommodate different widths of workpiece.
Sliding Table: A rack and pinion system provides easy lateral movement and features machined dovetail slides for accuracy.
Easy Access: The chuck is easily accessible from the side of the headstock making changing the bits a quick and simple procedure.
Precision Adjustment: Front to back and side to side movement are controlled with two separate handwheels, precision engineered for optimum accuracy.
