Unimat ML Technics
Mechanical Engineering, TVET
Creating precise work pieces on professional machinery is possible with Unimat MetalLine.
Unimat MetalLine convinces with:
- high stability and precision of entire system
- tolerances < 0.1mm can be met
- metal handwheels with adjustable vernier
For education this means that the modular structure and therefore the configuration options are combined with the possibility of making ambitious models precisely. Work pieces from non-ferrous metals can be processed accurately, gear wheels milled and tapers turned.
Machine variations
Metal lathe
The machine features a height of 50 mm and a width of 90 mm (expandable), equipped with a multiple steel holder to work with metals like aluminum, copper, brass, and others. It also includes a 3-jaw chuck that can fix workpieces up to 56 mm in diameter (or 65 mm when externally clamped). The travel distances for the Z-axis is 145 mm, and for the X-axis, it's 32 mm. This combination of features allows for precise and versatile metalworking.
Horizontal mill
Using 3 slides allows for a wide range of milling tasks on different planes. Travel: X-axis 145 mm, Y- and Z-axis 32 mm (optionally expandable). Collets with a clamping range from 1 to 6 mm.
Vertical mill / drill press
The machining center allows for precise drilling at any angle, featuring movement along the X, Y, and Z axes. It includes three guided, pivotable slides for three-dimensional work.
In its Vertical Mill variant, the drill can be transformed into a vertical mill using the included HSS milling cutter. Standard tools up to 6mm can be clamped, enhancing its versatility for different tasks.
Center Drilling
With the precise collets, tool bits from 1 to 6 mm can be inserted into the head-spindle. The tailstock quill allows for a precise travel of 30 mm. The hand wheel with 0.05 mm scale guarantees perfect drilling results and exact depth-control.

Jig saw
The child-safe and powerful jigsaw allows for easy and quick sawing tasks. Its short stroke ensures that there's no risk of injury.
Fine work, similar to using a scroll saw, becomes quicker and more enjoyable.
The saw is suitable for plywood, solid wood up to 7mm, and balsa wood up to 20mm, working particularly well with 4mm poplar plywood.
Additionally, it eliminates the hassle of constantly having to remove and reinsert the jigsaw blade for cutting openings.
Wood lathe
Sanding machine
Safe sanding is ideal for giving your own workpieces the final touch or easily sharpening your own tools.
Hand drill
The drill allows for child-safe drilling in wood. The vibration of the drill bit ensures safety while still enabling the drilling of small holes.
Wood lathe variations
Faceplate Turning: The work piece is clamped on only one side using the faceplate.
Miniature Lathe: Tiny rods of wood or soft metal (up to 6 mm Ø) can be clamped with collets.
