CNC Retrofitting Kit for Milling Machine
Product Code : LSK-CTM-10773
CNC Retrofitting Kit for Milling Machine (SKU LSK-CTM-10773) is a 3/2-axis, Ethernet-based CNC control package used to convert a conventional milling machine into a CNC mill. It lets institutes upgrade existing manual mills and teach CNC control, programming and machine conversion in ITI, polytechnic, B.Tech and TVET workshops. Supply is handled by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, for institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Function by function, the retrofit package is itemised in the rows below. Put simply, it is a high-speed Ethernet-based controller for 3 or 2 axes running open-loop, closed-loop or double closed-loop, with a manual pulse generator, spindle speed control, relay outputs, a visual G-code display and G-code generation from imported DXF, BMP, JPG and HPGL files.

Applications and Experiments for the CNC Retrofitting Kit
The kit is used to bring a manual milling machine under CNC control, and then to teach G-code programming, CAM from drawings and images, and machine interfacing on the converted mill. It suits institutes that want CNC training on machines they already own, and mechatronics projects in diploma and B.Tech courses.
- ITI and TVET CNC operator courses: running programs on a converted workshop mill, compared with manual operation of the Universal Milling Machine.
- Diploma and B.Tech mechatronics projects: interfacing axes, spindle and relays to a controller, alongside control exercises on the PLC and HMI Training Kit.
- CAD/CAM practicals: turning DXF drawings or images into G-code with the built-in CAM import utility.
- Advanced programming: writing custom M-codes and script-based macros.
Standard Scope of Supply
The CNC Retrofitting Kit for Milling Machine is supplied as a controller package with the functions described above. Because every manual mill differs, the exact contents for your machine are confirmed on the quotation; send the make, model and size of the mill you plan to convert.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for a quotation for one retrofit kit or for kits to convert several workshop mills. Each quotation from Science Lab Supplies sets out packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and other vocational training equipment can be added.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru and Egypt. Describe the mill you intend to convert on the contact page, keep the kit in the enquiry cart beside other items, or read the lab tender page when a tender is involved.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a CNC retrofitting kit do?
It replaces manual control of a milling machine with a CNC controller, so the mill can run G-code programs on 3 or 2 axes with spindle speed control.
Can the kit create G-code from drawings?
Yes. A built-in CAM import utility or the wizards generate G-code, and DXF, BMP, JPG and HPGL files can be imported directly, so trainees can machine parts from drawings or images.
Will the kit fit our existing milling machine?
Send the make, model, table size and axis travel of your mill through the contact page, and the quotation will state what is needed for that machine.
Who supplies the CNC Retrofitting Kit for Milling Machine?
The retrofitting kit is offered by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India. Engineering colleges, polytechnics and ITIs can obtain a direct quotation, and tender contractors or distributors converting mills for an institute can request one as well.
