Proxxon - precision and fine power tools plus bench machines

Fine-mechanics tools and compact machine tools for demanding small-scale work.

Proxxon is a German manufacturer of precision and fine power tools as well as compact bench machines. The range spans small precision lathes of the PD series and milling machines of the FF series, the MICROMOT programme, and fine-mechanics tooling for model making, mould making, electronics and the workshop.

The machines are built for high repeatability and fine machining, and can be extended with accessories such as drilling and milling attachments, dividing heads and CNC control units. Individual devices thus combine into a modular system for precise metal and wood machining in a small footprint.

Choosing the right Proxxon machine

Turning or milling?

For rotationally symmetric parts - shafts, pins, bushings - a precision lathe of the PD series is the foundation. For slots, pockets, contours and hole patterns, choose a milling machine of the FF series. Many users combine both, since drilling and milling attachments extend a lathe with basic milling work.

What to look for

  • Centre distance and work envelope: determine the maximum workpiece length and size.
  • Motor: brushless drives run more smoothly and need less maintenance.
  • CNC readiness: CNC-ready models can be automated with control units such as the CU 4.
  • Accessories: dividing heads, thread-cutting and milling attachments widen the range of use.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Proxxon

What kind of brand is Proxxon?

Proxxon is a German brand of precision and fine power tools plus compact bench machines such as lathes, milling machines and fine-mechanics devices. The products are manufactured in Germany (Made in Germany).

What are Proxxon machines used for?

Proxxon machines are designed for fine, precise work and are used in model making, mould making, electronics, fine mechanics, workshops and training. They suit metal, plastic and wood machining in a small footprint.

What do the codes PD, FF and MF mean at Proxxon?

PD denotes the precision lathes, FF the milling machines and MF the MICRO millers. The letters identify the series and the number identifies the model, for example PD 400 or FF 500.

Are Proxxon machines CNC-capable?

Several Proxxon models are available as CNC-ready and can be automated with control units such as the CU 4 for multiple axes. The same machine can therefore be operated manually or under computer control.

Can Proxxon lathes be extended?

Yes. PD-series lathes can be expanded with accessories such as drilling and milling attachments, dividing heads and thread-cutting units, widening the range of use beyond turning alone.
