Customer Reviews for VEVOR 300 x 140 mm Travel Compound Milling and Drilling Slide Table X Y Axis

The overall quality is good, after you clean it up and adjust the gibs. Unfortunately, I needed something a lil more accurate and with more travel for the lower rails.

Nice little table, small and 10 m/m slots. Had a little problem finding correct clamping kit. Heavy and nicely made.

Solid little XY table for benchtop drill presses that can be made amazing with a bit of TLC. Just understand that it will need dissasembly and a little cleanup of paint in the ways and gib adjusment to get things nice and tight.

I received mine and took it apart and cleaned all the shipping coatings. Applied some ways oil to all sliding surfaces and spindle oil to the threaded hand wheel screws, adjusted the gibs to tighten up play/backlash. Set on my drill press and made a quick test run on some Delrin block. I was very pleased and now can use my drill press for some basic milling on light materials which is exactly why I purchased it. Mission accomplished and I'd recommend it.BTW it is very heavy so you'll most likely need to brace your drill press table - depending on its sturdiness.

Decent value for the money. Biggest complaint is the the bottom adjustment wheel sits below the bottom of the plate. If you plan to mount to a large table like a commercial sized drill press you cannot center it under the bit.You need to take apart and stone the ways they were very rough. Acme threads were bent and you cannot adjust the backlash out of it. But for a drill press its nice for the price point.Casting is very rough but after adjusting the ways it's actually pretty smooth.For a home gamer it does well

Those complaining about lack of accuracy due to backlash (to the other reviewer complaining about hysteresis, this term is generally applied to magnetic fields while backlash is the correct term for mechanical systems), will need to spend at least double or more to get near zero backlash. For the purpose of routers or drill presses, you cannot beat this XY table for the price. I will probably buy another one to mount on my lathe. This is a beast of a table that is reasonably well made and achieves nearly industry level toughness, while not promising .001 accuracy that would be unreasonable in this price range.

used it to make drill press stand for mag drill & it came out great

Ellis L.For the price this is a great milling table. I use it on my drill press and find it handy for a lot of applications. When the table came it was missing a hand crank handle. Made do by making my own. It is cast iron so i recommend that you keep is oiled or use a rust preventer. The calibrations on the turning knobs are not accurate but I use calipers to get the accuracy that I need. Mounting bolts and hold down clamps do not come with it. For my first milling table it is great.

A great product, after disassemble , clean up and adjustment, it worked smoothly, the only trouble I though was when the package arrived and the "y" shaft was protruding from the wood case, fortunately no damage was apparent.Will order again from this seller.

For all the reviewers complaining about how it functions on arrival, remember, the hard work has been done for you, and is delivered for ~$150. How on earth you're expecting an additional 4-6 hours of "finishing" labor to be included at that price it is beyond me. Think of it more as a 98% finished $500 cross-slide at a crazy discount so long as you are willing to put in the sweat equity. After you disassemble and clean all the factory goop out of it, clean all of the parts, carefully de-burr the slides and hone them nice and smooth, grind the gibs a bit so they ride at the proper height in the dovetails and de-burr if necessary (mine were nearly perfect), then repack the thrust bearings and reassemble the acme rods careful to align so they don't bind or seem "bent" (the reports of bent acme rods are likely due to being offset slightly (loose manufacturing tolerances I'm sure, one of mine was dead center, the other was offset by .052" which made it appear bent during dry assembly since the thrust race was seating at a slight angle, so when reassembling I added a thin washer that seated nicely against the acme thread/rod axle shoulder thrust bearing race seat), and finally added a large lock-washer behind the hand wheels to eliminate a chance of rubbing against the slide body. I didn't put any spring tension on the thrust bearings, just lightweight torque barely past hand-tight, but I may in future. And the complaints on the paint job are warranted for sure, it's sloppy as can be....but it's not bad to the point of any negativity, just clean up any of the splashover and get on with it, just mill something already and don't worry about the paint job so much, you're going to be coating the entire slide with a thin film of oil through normal usage, maintenance, and whatnot, it should remain fairly well protected from airborne humidity...Edit after I figured out the scale, the numbers are very wrong like others mentioned, and the graduations are all screwy, clearly it wa
