tool is stationary, while on a mill, the tool turns and the work is stationary. Because of the
tremendous number of operations that can be performed on a vertical mill, it is commonly
regarded as the most important tool in the modern machine shop...the workhorse of the
industry.
At first glance, a vertical mill looks similar to a drill press, but there are some important
differences; such as, a spindle that can take side loads as well as end loads and an accurate
method of moving the work in relation to the spindle on all three axes. Sherline milling machines
can perform all of the tasks and operations that a large commercial machine can perform.
Operations such as fly cutting, precision drilling, and boring are all routine tasks for the Sherline
mill. Because the tool turns rather than the work, much larger parts can be worked on in a mill,
and these parts need not be round. The work is securely held, thus extremely accurate hole
patterns can be drilled or bored. The longer X-axis throw also increases the machine’s
versatility over that of the lathe with the vertical milling column attachment. It is an extremely
rigid, accurate tool that accomplishes tough machining jobs with ease.
The 5000-series mills are Sherline's most economical mills and would be a good starting
point for any miniature machine shop. They feature a solid 10" (254mm) aluminum base,
precision machined dovetailed slides with adjustable gibs, permanently lubricated spindle
bearings, adjustable preload anti-backlash feed screws on the X- and Y-axes, two 1-5/8"
(41mm) laser engraved aluminum handwheels, one 2-1/2" (63mm) laser engraved handwheel
with thrust bearings, and many other features found only on the best commercial machines.
OTHER OPTIONS: The 5000/5100 mill can be ordered with P/N 8100 digital readout already
installed. Standard handwheels are not included because they are replaced by the DRO
handwheels. The mill can also be ordered in "CNC ready" configuration ready for the
application of stepper motors and CNC controls. In this configuration the standard handwheels
are supplied so that they can be used on the rear shaft of a dual shaft stepper motor for
optional manual control.
5400/5410 Deluxe Vertical Milling Machine
The deluxe 5400-series mill is our most popular mill. It comes equipped with all of Sherline’s
standard features upgraded to include a laser engraved 12" (305mm) solid aluminum base for
2" or additional Y-axis travel, laser engraved scales on the table and base, 2-1/2" (63mm)
adjustable “zero” handwheel on the Z-axis and 2" (51mm) adjustable “zero” handwheels on the
X- and Y-axes, a mill headstock spacer (P/N 1297) to provide more throat distance and a 1/4"
drill chuck and drawbolt (P/N 3072).
All Sherline mills feature precision machined dovetailed slides with adjustable gibs, permanently
lubricated spindle bearings, adjustable preload anti-backlash feed screws and a high-torque 90
VDC motor with electronic speed control. Speed is continuously variable from 70 to 2800 RPM
without gear or belt changes. A second pulley position is also available to provide extra torque
at low RPM if needed.
An additional $80 worth of accessories plus 2" more Y-axis travel and the convenience of laser
engraved reference scales make the additional $100.00 over the cost of a basic Model
5000/5100 a very good buy.

was designed to take Sherline tools into the next century. Patterned after the movements
of the industry standard for full-size mills, the Bridgeport® mill, the column has been
redesigned to offer four additional directions of movement compared to other Sherline
mills. A modified rotary column attachment allows the Z-axis column to tilt from side to side
up to 90°. A laser engraved angle scale makes setting the tilt angle easy. As on the rotary
column, a clamping ring design locks the column securely at the desired angle. On the
back side of this special rotary column attachment is a knuckle that allows the top of the Z-
axis column to be tilted either toward or away from the operator. Laser engraved scales
indicate movement up to 90° in either direction on this axis.
In addition to the side-to-side rotary tilt movement, the new column base offers a center
pivot lock that allows the ram to be moved both in and out as well as swung from side to
side. In/out travel is 5.50" and side-to-side motion is indicated by laser engraved scales
showing up to 90° of movement either way. These four movements are in addition to the
standard mill’s X-, Y-, Z-axis travel and headstock rotation movement, giving a total of
eight directions of motion or tilt. This much versatility puts the Sherline model 2000 mill in
a class by itself in this size range. It is a fully functional shop mill that fits on a tabletop and
stores on a closet shelf. When used with accessories like the tilting angle table and rotary
table, the machining possibilities of the mill are limited only by part size and the extent of
your imagination.
The 2000-series mill base has been extended an additional 2" over the Model 5400/5410,
extending the Y-axis travel to 7.0" (178mm). This was done to accommodate the pivoting
mechanisms and to take advantage of the increased arm movements. Like the deluxe
Model 5400/5410 mills, all handwheels are resettable to zero at any time.
The 8-direction mill includes the same laser engraved scales on the base and table as the
5400-series deluxe mill package. Also included is a 1/4" Jacobs drill chuck and key. (The
headstock spacer block is not included on the 2000-series mill, as the ram travel makes it
unnecessary.)
All Sherline mills feature precision machined dovetailed slides with adjustable gibs,
permanently lubricated spindle bearings, adjustable preload anti-backlash feed screws
and a high-torque 90 VDC motor with electronic speed control. Speed is continuously
variable from 70 to 2800 RPM without gear or belt changes. A second pulley position is
also available to provide extra torque at low RPM if needed.
OTHER OPTIONS: The 2000/2010 mill can be ordered with P/N 8100 digital readout
already installed. Standard handwheels are not included because they are replaced by
the DRO handwheels. The mill can also be ordered in "CNC ready" configuration ready
for the application of stepper motors and CNC controls. In this configuration the standard
handwheels are supplied so that they can be used on the rear shaft of a dual shaft
stepper motor for optional manual control.
