Precision Rebuilding. Restore Performance.
The Classic CM machine has built its strong and long-lasting reputation under the “AMC-SCHOU” name over the past decades. From the CM 1,200 to the CM 4,000, thousands of CM machines have been delivered, with most of them still working in workshops across more than 100 countries.
Alongside the continuous production of the Classic CM machines, the CM 4,000 was introduced for customers who require boring and milling capabilities for engine blocks as large as V20 diesel blocks, with complete control in the operator’s hands.
Various angle heads have been developed for line boring applications, providing benefits in both precision and efficiency.

Features
CONTROL PANEL
The machine is operated by means of an easy-to-use control panel which is mounted on a swivel arm, allowing the operator to stand in the best possible working position.The controls are located conveniently in sections for spindle rotation, boring slide movement and table movement.
DEPTH CONTROL
Accurate depth control when counter-boring is essential. Depth control with AMC-SCHOU machines is easy to use, fast and accurate.
TOOL GRINDER
The special AMC-SCHOU Tool Grinder Model TG 1 with its 150 mm/6 inch grinding and diamond lapping wheels secures that correct angles are ground on carbide tipped boring tools. Can also be used to grind boring tools for Line Boring Machines
MILLING HEAD
All CM machines are supplied with a 300 mm/11.8 inch milling head as standard. (400 mm/15.7 inch on CM 2500V) 2 easily replacable CBN cut-ters, and infinitely variable rpm are also standard
TOOLING
With a direct reading micrometer clamped on the spindle by special holders, fast and accurate tool setting is achieved.Tooling for changing boring heads,T-bolts and spanners are also standard.
QUICK ACTING CLAMPS
These clamps are indispensable when reboring in-line blocks.
BORING SPINDLE NO 1-4
AMC-SCHOU supplies a full range of spindles.
TABLE MOVEMENT
The guideways are protected by tele-scopic guards. Automatic central lubrication ensures optimal table movement, and prolongs the life of the machine.The boring slide guideways on all machines are also lubri-cated automatically by this system. Stop dogs on the bed control movement of the table to the next cylinder for faster floor to floor time.
BORING HEADS
Extra boring heads are supplied with some spindles.The 140 mm/5.5 inch boring head can be used with spindle no.3 and no.4.The larger 190 mm/7.48 inch boring head can be used with spindle no. 4 and no.7. Extra boring heads 260 mm/10.25 inch and 300 mm/11.8 inch are available for spin-dle no. 7
BORING SPINDLE NO 5
The smallest spindle from AMC-SCHOU with a range from 32-50 mm/1.25-2 inch.
