Famup is Italian...I used to sell Famup leadscrew tappers (new). Mill just seems to be of the usual Bridgeport concept....nothing in common with the Deckel style other than they both are mills.

you are correct . looks just like any old bpt . to you.

Less like a Bridgeport than I realized but still nothing like a Deckel, which are gear drive, integral power feeds, always has horizontal spindle, Y axis is ram and tables are completely removable for different styles. Basic design of the Famup reminds me more of an Aciera jig borer....except the Aciera would be way better quality. Famup is kinda middle of the road Italian stuff.

I'm curious: by Aciera jig borer, do you mean Aciera Type 22 or 23 coordinate drilling/boring machines? Aciera Type 22 and 23 Mill/Drill/Co-ordinate Boring Machines

I didn't think Aciera made a jig borer in the sense of Hauser, SIP, or Moore.

Aciera 23 STA....of course the Famup is different but it reminds me of the Aciera way more than any Deckel mill.

Agreed. Famup is a very strange name, by the way. Does not conjure images of stout, productive machine tools.

Better name than Duff milling machines... for real....a Bridgeport style make in the 50's in California I think. Looks pretty nice actually
