What This Machine Does
The HQ800 is a combination machine covering turning, milling, drilling and threading in one footprint, aimed at the workshop that repairs and makes parts but cannot dedicate a bay to each operation. Swing over the bed is 420mm with 800mm between centres, and longitudinal travel is 700mm with 200mm of cross travel, so it takes larger work than a bench-sized combination machine. The spindle has an MT4 taper and a 28mm bore, running over seven speed steps from 160 to 1360rpm. Threads are cut in metric from 0.2 to 6mm and in inch from 4 to 120 T.P.I., so both systems are available without changing the machine. Longitudinal automatic feed is adjustable from 0.05 to 0.35mm. It will process metal, wood and other materials, and is used in job shops, car shops, technical schools, factories and homes for machine part repair and making, and for training.
Why Buyers Choose This Machine
- Turning milling drilling and threading on one machine in a small floor area
- 420mm swing over bed and 800mm between centres handle larger work than bench combination machines
- Seven spindle speed steps from 160 to 1360rpm cover a wide range of diameters and materials
- Metric threads 0.2 to 6mm and inch threads 4 to 120 T.P.I. so both systems are on the machine
- Longitudinal automatic feed adjustable from 0.05 to 0.35mm for roughing and finishing
- 700mm longitudinal and 200mm cross travel for long and wide work
- Processes metal wood and other materials so the same machine serves varied jobs
Where HQ800 Multi Purpose Type Drilling Milling Machin Earns Its Place
Problems It Solves
- Separate lathe mill and drill take three times the floor space and budget
- Moving work between machines loses the setup and adds alignment error
- Bench combination machines are too small for 800mm shaft work
- Parts needing both metric and inch threads cannot be finished on a single-system machine
- Waiting on an outside supplier for a simple turned or milled part stops a repair
- Fixed feed rates leave the operator with no choice between cut rate and finish
Who It Is For
- Job shops taking in mixed repair and fabrication work
- Car repair shops that make their own parts
- Technical schools and training centres
- Factory maintenance departments
- Distributors supplying combination machine tools in export markets
Application Scenarios
- Repairing and making machine parts in a job shop
- Turning shafts up to 800mm between centres then milling features on them
- Drilling and threading components without moving them to another machine
- Practical training in technical schools covering several machining operations
- Car shop repair work where a replacement part must be made on site
- Occasional woodworking or non-metal work on the same machine

How It Is Built and What Can Be Changed
Operations Performed
- Turning
- Milling
- Drilling
- Thread cutting
Quality Control
- Spindle run-out measured at the MT4 nose before the machine is released
- All seven spindle speed steps verified across the 160 to 1360rpm range
- Longitudinal and cross travel checked over the full 700mm and 200mm movement
- Metric and inch thread pitches test cut and checked against the charts
- Machine run in and a test part turned milled and drilled before packing
Customisation Options
- Tooling package quoted for the turning milling and drilling work you actually do
- Chuck and vice specified for your typical workpiece sizes
- Supply voltage and frequency set for your market
- Metric or inch thread chart supplied according to your workshop practice
- Manual prepared in your working language
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| BVB25 3in1 multipurpose milling drilling machine | The BVB25 is the bench-sized 3in1 with a 250mm swing; the HQ800 gives 420mm swing and 800mm between centres for larger work |
|---|---|
| Universal desktop lathe machine BL1224 | The BL1224 is a dedicated lathe with a gap bed; the HQ800 gives up turning refinement for the ability to mill drill and thread on the same machine |
| Buying separate lathe mill and drill | Three machines take three footprints and force the part to be reset between them; the HQ800 does the operations in one setup |
Running the Machine
Step 1
Install the machine on a solid base and check it is level before cutting
Step 2
Mount work within the 420mm swing and 800mm between centres
Step 3
Select one of the seven speed steps between 160 and 1360rpm for the material and diameter
Step 4
Set the longitudinal automatic feed between 0.05 and 0.35mm for the pass you want
Step 5
Turn and face using the 200mm cross travel
Step 6
Select the metric or inch thread pitch from the chart when threading
Step 7
Use the milling and drilling head with the 70mm barrel travel for holes and features
