We have a Microcut 857 Turret Milling Machine for sale.

Stock # 4220
Buffalo Machinery has been building machine tools from Taichung, Taiwan since 1979 — a city recognised globally as the centre of the machine tool industry. Their Microcut brand, in continuous production since 1983, is built on a straightforward principle: quality construction, backed by genuine dealer and end-user support. Buffalo carries both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification, and was one of the first manufacturers worldwide to achieve the updated 2015 versions of both standards — a mark of a company that takes quality management seriously, not just as a credential.
This particular 857 has spent its working life in a TAFE workshop — used by students under supervision rather than pushed hard in a production environment. That history tends to mean lower wear and more careful handling than you’d expect from a commercial shop machine.

3 Phase Power — Please Note
This machine does not include a plug. When 3 phase machinery is decommissioned from industrial use, it is typically disconnected directly from a switchboard by an electrician — meaning no plug is fitted, and in some cases the cable may also be absent.
As a machinery dealer, we are not electricians and are unable to supply or fit plugs. Buyers will need to arrange connection through a licensed electrician. This is no different to purchasing new 3-phase machinery, which also requires a licensed electrician for installation.
On occasion, a machine will arrive with a plug already fitted — in that case, it stays. For the same reason we don’t fit plugs, we don’t remove them either.
Condition
This is an ex-TAFE training machine, presenting in good general order. The head is currently noisy and requires servicing — this will be carried out prior to sale, so the machine is supplied in proper working condition.
We recommend customers pay us a visit to inspect machinery, where we are happy to test run machinery in our warehouse, that way it gives you peace of mind that the machine will do your job before purchase.
This milling machine is in our warehouse so please feel free to call us on 03-9720-3922 for more information & price or pop in to inspect the machine at your convenience.
We are always interested in purchasing metalworking machinery & surplus equipment. Should you be looking at Downsizing, Relocating, Closing Down or having machinery surplus to requirements, we would appreciate the opportunity to assist in any way we can.
We would like to extend a note to all prospective customers. We are happy to provide details of freight companies that transport machines anywhere in Australia or worldwide. However, we want to remind customers that the machines are not insured during transport by either the transport companies or Newmac Equipment. We strongly advise that customers speak with their usual insurance company to take out transport insurance.
