Important Update Regarding Sherline Products
October 20, 2026
We would like to share an encouraging development regarding the future of Sherline Products.
We are currently in discussions with an American manufacturer regarding the potential purchase of Sherline’s intellectual property and remaining inventory. The goal of this proposed acquisition is to preserve and revitalize the Sherline brand while providing continued availability of replacement parts, accessories, and machines for our valued customers.
As these discussions progress, we have agreed to temporarily suspend accepting new orders, effective October 19, 2026. This will allow us to preserve our remaining inventory while negotiations are underway.
Although no final agreement has been reached, we are hopeful that this opportunity will provide a positive path forward for the Sherline name and the customers who have trusted our products for more than five decades.
We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued loyalty during this transition. We will share additional information as soon as it becomes available.
Our greatest hope is that the Sherline legacy of quality, precision, and American craftsmanship will continue for generations to come.

Product Description

Any Sherline vertical mill can be purchased without the headstock and motor/speed control as an XYZ base. This allows lathe owners to swap the headstock and motor/speed control from their lathe to the mill in approximately 60 seconds.

About the CNC-Ready, 8-Direction Benchtop Mill XYZ Base

The Benchtop Mill XYZ base is the same base used in our 2000-series 8-direction mill. It has a 14″ base and a 13″ table, both with laser-engraved measurements. Stepper motor mounts are on the X-, Y-, and Z-axes, ready for the installation of stepper motors (Stepper motors are not included, see the STEPPER MOTOR page for information).

Travel: X=8.65″ (220 mm), Y= 7.0″ (178 mm), Z=5.38″ (137 mm)

CNC-Ready XYZ Bases

Included with the CNC-ready XYZ bases are three low-mass 1-5/8″ handwheels. If using Sherline or other dual-shaft stepper motors, the handwheels can be mounted to the rear shaft to provide manual control in addition to CNC control. (NOTE: Manual control is not possible on CNC-ready bases until a dual shaft stepper motor has been installed. Handwheels cannot be installed directly onto the stepper motor mounts.) These slides have been popular items in the industry to control movement in small production line processes, and the addition of computer control extends the possibilities for automation. Travels of each of these CNC-ready bases are the same as for the manually-controlled versions.

NOTE: CNC-ready machines cannot be operated manually unless double-shaft stepper motors are installed.

    Stepper Motors
    Sherline stepper motors are NEMA 23, dual-shaft motors designed specifically for our CNC mills, lathes, and rotary tables.
    Both the standard motor (P/N 67127) and the high-torque motor (P/N 67126) are rated at 2.0 A/phase and are fully compatible with Sherline CNC systems, driver boxes, and motion controllers. The dual-shaft design allows you to add handwheels for manual control when needed. [accordion] [pane title="Features"]
    • NEMA 23 frame size – fits Sherline CNC-ready mills, lathes, and rotary tables.
    • Dual-shaft design – both ends of the shaft are usable; flats are ground on each end for secure attachment of handwheels and couplings.
    • Standard step angle – 1.8° per step (200 steps/rev) for precise motion control.
    • 2.0 A/phase – both motors are rated at 2.0 amps and work with existing Sherline CNC power supplies and driver electronics.
    • 6-lead wiring – allows use in a variety of bipolar or unipolar configurations (see spec sheets for wiring diagrams).
    • Designed for Sherline CNC – plug-and-play with Sherline driver boxes and motion controllers when used with the supplied connectors.
    [/pane] [pane title="Motor Options"]
    P/N 67127 – Standard Stepper Motor (with Plug)
    The standard Sherline stepper motor (P/N 67127) comes pre-wired with six leads into a 5-pin DIN connector that plugs directly into Sherline’s CNC driver boxes and linear or rotary controllers. Simply plug each motor into the corresponding axis cable for a quick, clean setup. This motor is ideal for typical Sherline CNC applications where cutting loads are moderate, such as machining aluminum, brass, plastics, and light cuts in steel.
    P/N 67130 – Stepper Motor (Without Plug)
    P/N 67130 is the same basic motor as P/N 67127 but supplied with six raw wire leads and no connector. It is intended for non-Sherline controllers or custom installations where a different pinout or connector is required.
    P/N 67126 – High-Torque Stepper Motor
    Sherline’s high-torque stepper motor (P/N 67126) uses the same NEMA 23 frame size and 1/4" dual shaft as the standard motor, but delivers over 75% more holding torque. This added torque is especially useful on the Z-axis, where it can better handle the weight of the headstock and motor, and for heavier cuts or higher feed rates. Rated at 2 amps, the high-torque motor is fully compatible with all Sherline CNC machines, including complete CNC systems, the 4-axis driver box, CNC rotary tables, and Sherline linear and rotary controllers. No power supply upgrade is required. [/pane] [pane title="Specifications Comparison"]

    [/pane] [pane title="Compatibility & Installation Notes"]
    • Coupler requirement: Because of the increased torque, the high-torque motor (P/N 67126) must be used with the updated CNC coupling (P/N 671052). This coupling replaces the older 3-slot coupling (P/N 67105).
    • Motor mounts: When used with a Sherline stepper motor mount (P/N 67101), be sure that the shaft entering the coupling has a flat aligned with the set screw. Tightening against the round shaft can damage the shaft and make removal difficult.
    • Handwheel use: The dual-shaft design lets you mount a handwheel on the rear shaft for manual operation when the drivers are powered down. When the motors are energized, they hold position and cannot be moved easily by hand.
    • Controller compatibility: P/N 67127 with the 5-pin DIN plug is designed to plug directly into Sherline’s 4-axis driver box, CNC systems, and linear and rotary controllers. P/N 67130 (no plug) is intended for non-Sherline or custom controllers.
    Safety Note: The improper use of machine tools and accessories can result in serious injury. Always read and follow the instructions before installing or operating stepper motors, and always wear appropriate eye protection. [/pane] [pane title="Documents"] [/pane] [/accordion]
