JET Mill/Drill with Newall DP500 DRO and X-Axis Table Powerfeed
Product Overview
The JET JMD-18PFN Mill/Drill with Newall DP500 DRO and X-Axis Table Powerfeed is a versatile bench-top machine designed for workshops that need both drilling and light milling capabilities in one compact unit. This configuration combines a 2 HP belt-drive motor, R-8 spindle taper, Newall DP500 digital readout, power downfeed, and an X-axis table powerfeed for more consistent machining operations.
The Newall DP500 DRO helps the operator monitor table position digitally, while the X-axis powerfeed automatically moves the worktable during milling. Together, these features improve positioning control and reduce the amount of manual table movement required during longer machining passes. The JMD-18PFN has a 1-1/4-inch drilling capacity, 3-inch face-mill capacity, and 3/4-inch end-mill capacity.
Key Features
- 2 HP belt-drive motor provides power for drilling and milling operations.
- Newall DP500 digital readout provides clear digital positioning information.
- X-axis table powerfeed automates longitudinal table movement for smoother, more consistent milling.
- Power downfeed with manual fine feed provides controlled spindle movement during drilling and machining.
- R-8 spindle taper accommodates a wide range of commonly available tooling.
- 12 spindle speeds cover a broad range from 150 to 3,000 RPM.
- 1-1/4-inch drilling capacity supports substantial drilling operations.
- 3-inch face-mill capacity handles larger milling cutters.
- 3/4-inch end-mill capacity is suitable for common slotting and milling work.
- One-piece cast-iron column adds rigidity and helps reduce vibration.
- 360° head swivel provides additional setup flexibility.
- Large 9-1/2 x 31-3/4-inch worktable provides useful workspace for larger workpieces.
- 400 lb worktable capacity supports substantial workpieces when properly secured.
- 5-inch spindle travel provides useful drilling and machining depth.
- Built-in work lamp improves visibility around the cutting area.
- Positive quick-stop and internal depth gauge help with repeatable drilling operations.

The specifications above correspond to JET stock number 350136. Current product listings identify the machine as the JMD-18PFN with Newall DP500 DRO and X-axis powerfeed.
Newall DP500 Digital Readout
The integrated Newall DP500 DRO gives the operator a digital indication of machine position, making it easier to monitor movements and establish repeatable machining locations. This is particularly useful when making multiple passes or positioning a workpiece according to measured dimensions.
The DRO works alongside the machine's table positioning system to make setup and machining more straightforward than relying solely on graduated handwheels.
X-Axis Table Powerfeed
The X-axis powerfeed automatically moves the table along its 20-1/2-inch longitudinal travel. Instead of manually turning the table handwheel throughout a milling pass, the operator can use powered table movement for a more consistent feed.
Benefits include:
- More consistent feed rates
- Smoother milling passes
- Reduced operator fatigue
- Better control during longer cuts
- Improved repeatability for repetitive work
The machine also incorporates power downfeed with manual fine feed, giving the operator additional control over spindle movement.
Milling and Drilling Capability
The JMD-18PFN is designed as a combination machine, allowing a single unit to perform both drilling and milling operations.
Its 1-1/4-inch drilling capacity makes it suitable for substantial hole-making work, while the 3-inch face-mill capacity and 3/4-inch end-mill capacity provide flexibility for material removal, surface machining, slots, shoulders, and other common milling operations.
The R-8 spindle taper is a widely used tooling interface, giving users access to a broad selection of compatible collets, arbors, and milling accessories.
12-Speed Belt Drive
The machine provides 12 spindle speeds ranging from 150 to 3,000 RPM. This broad speed range allows the operator to select a suitable spindle speed according to the material, cutter diameter, cutting operation, and desired finish.
The belt cover incorporates a quick-slide latch, making access for spindle-speed adjustments more convenient.
Rigid Cast-Iron Construction
A one-piece cast-iron column provides a solid foundation for the machine. The rigid structure helps limit vibration during drilling and milling, contributing to more consistent machining performance.
The large worktable measures 9-1/2 x 31-3/4 inches and has a rated capacity of 400 lb, providing useful space for workholding fixtures and larger workpieces.
Convenient Workshop Features
JET includes several features intended to make day-to-day operation easier:
- 360° head swivel for flexible machine setup
- Built-in work lamp for improved cutting-area visibility
- Internal depth gauge for easier depth reference
- Positive quick-stop knob for controlled drilling operations
- Drill chuck, arbor, drawbar, and chuck guard included with the package
- Adjustable carbide facemill included according to the listed package contents
Typical Applications
The JET JMD-18PFN is well suited for:
- General machine shops
- Maintenance departments
- Metal fabrication
- Equipment repair
- Prototyping
- Toolmaking
- Small-batch production
- Custom metalworking
- Industrial workshops
- Educational and training environments
Installation and Electrical Information
The machine uses a 2 HP, 115/230V, single-phase motor and is prewired for 115V. Its listed overall dimensions are 47 x 40 x 51 inches, with a net weight of approximately 700 lb.
Because of its substantial weight, the machine should be installed on a properly prepared, stable support surface capable of handling both the machine and workpiece loads.
Why Choose the JET JMD-18PFN?
The JET Mill/Drill with Newall DP500 DRO and X-Axis Table Powerfeed brings several productivity-oriented features together in one machine. The Newall DP500 DRO improves positional awareness, the X-axis powerfeed provides automated longitudinal table movement, and the power downfeed gives greater control during drilling operations.
With a 2 HP motor, 12 spindle speeds, R-8 spindle taper, 1-1/4-inch drilling capacity, 3-inch face-mill capacity, 400 lb table capacity, and 20-1/2-inch longitudinal travel, the JMD-18PFN is a capable choice for shops that need versatile milling and drilling performance without moving to a much larger industrial milling machine.
