OMEC 650-M
THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS THE
MANUFACTURING OF DRAWERS
AND FURNITURE PARTS

The milling machine is very easy to use. Adjusting
screws can all be accessed from the front side of
the head.

The OMEC 650-M is the biggest model of manual
milling machines manufactured by the OMEC
company.
It is a full manual machine composed of a milling
head that uses a pin to copy a template with four
different joint pitches: 25-40-50-80mm.

The milling cycle is obtained by gripping the two
levers on the sides of the head and copying the
contour of the previously adjusted template. This
machine can process single male workpieces,
single female workpieces as well as combined
male-female workpieces.
The spindle is fitted with an eccentric milling cutter
with only one cutting side. Therefore, after the
sharpening procedure, the outer diameter can be
adjusted by simply rotating the milling cutter
towards the + symbol. This adjustment allows
operators to sharpen the tool several times before
replacing it.
With this operation it is also possible to adjust the
joint's coupling depending on height.
The spindle’s motor can be provided in the threephase or single-phase version, so that it can be
used non only for industrial purposes.
The high number of revolutions of the tool's motor
guarantees a perfect machining of solid wood.
The joint pitch, i.e. the male size, can be changed
manually by loosening the two fastening screws of
the template and rotating until the desired size
reading appears on the lower side.
Workpieces are locked manually by means of
pneumatic cylinders controlled by lever-operated
valves that are fitted onto the machine base.

Compared to the smaller manual model (OMEC
450-M), this model has a lager worktop that allows
operators to machine two male-female workpieces
on the left side and another two on the right side,
thus reducing significantly the machining time.
The use of a pneumatic locking system, which
offers workpieces a greater stability, is another
way to increase the manual feeding speed of the
milling head.
