XYZ Machines

At Jet Machinery, XYZ machines are among the core offerings in both the lathe and milling categories. These machines are typically pre-owned or refurbished, and are offered with full inspection and reconditioning as part of Jet Machinery’s service. 

Product Range & Examples

Here are some examples of XYZ machines featured on the Jet Machinery site:

• XYZ 2000 3 Axis CNC Turret Milling Machine A flagship milling machine offering with a ProtoTRAK SLX 3-axis control, R8 spindle taper, and spindle speeds from 500 up to 4,200 rev/min. JetMachinery Its table measures 1,270 × 254 mm; the travel distances are X = 745 mm, Y = 370 mm, Z (knee travel) = 406 mm, and quill travel = 127 mm.
• XYZ TC250 Vulcan Turning Centre Manufactured in 2002, this lathe has a 3-jaw power chuck of Ø250 mm, a maximum swing over bed of Ø500 mm, and a maximum turning length of 650 mm. JetMachinery The axes travel are X = 220 mm and Z = 650 mm, with a spindle speed up to 3,500 rpm (driven by a 22.5 kW motor), and a spindle bore of Ø87 mm.

These examples show that Jet Machinery carries both milling and turning machines under the XYZ brand, often with CNC or semi-CNC controls.

Condition, Reconditioning & Service

Jet Machinery positions itself as a specialist in used and reconditioned machine tools - they emphasise that every machine is “run then checked over” by their team of engineers, with reconditioning or overhauls done where necessary. 

For XYZ machines, as with their other inventory, the same philosophy applies: the machines are inspected, tested, cleaned up, and any necessary repairs or adjustments carried out before listing for sale. They also note that specifications are given in good faith but not guaranteed, advising potential buyers to verify “any vital details.” 

Advantages & Appeal

Some of the attractive features of XYZ machines (as demonstrated in Jet Machinery’s listings):

• Well-established brand / model line: The Proturn, EMILL, and turret milling lines suggest a mature product family with known performance. 
• CNC / semi-CNC capabilities: Many XYZ machines use controls like ProtoTRAK, which are user-friendly for small batch and prototype work.
• Range of machine types: Users can find both lathes and milling machines under the XYZ banner in Jet Machinery’s inventory.
• Value in the used / reconditioned market: Because Jet Machinery specialises in used machine tools, XYZ machines offered here are positioned as cost-effective solutions compared to brand new machines. 

Considerations Before Purchase

When considering an XYZ machine via Jet Machinery, prospective buyers should pay attention to:
1. Specification accuracy – Confirm axis travels, spindle details, motor power, control system version, etc.
2. Condition & wear – Review the reconditioning work done, inspect critical components like ways, spindles, bearings, etc.
3. Support & spare parts – Although Jet Machinery reconditions the machines, ensure you can source spare parts or service support for the XYZ model you choose.
4. Installation & setup – These machines are large, heavy, and require skilled setup, alignment, and possibly electrical or foundation work.
5. Control & programming – If the machine uses a control like ProtoTRAK, ensure your staff have (or can acquire) the necessary skills.
