The table offers a fully ground surface and it slides on adjustable wedged jib strips, while the headstock has a digital readout of spindle extension. In addition, the down-feed features a fine feed system for milling, plus a direct feed for drilling.
The main difference between the two models is in the power unit. The X2.7 uses a variable speed brush-type motor with reverse, which offers an appropriate amount of power for this size of machine. In contrast, the SX2.7 has a brushless motor controlled by a touch pad. This has much more torque, especially at the lower spindle speed. It is also quieter and, because of the more advanced control system, offers a tapping function.
