A type of vertical milling machine that has a stationary spindle and the table is moved both perpendicular and parallel to the spindle axis to accomplish cutting.

UNSPSC 23242509 Turret milling machine is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement covers milling and resurfacing services for roadway construction, machine shop equipment procurement including CNC lathes and machining centers, and fabrication equipment. The actual work being solicited under this code spans from infrastructure resurfacing contracts to equipment purchases for educational and institutional machine shops, diverging from the narrow code name. Issuing bodies include county highway departments, state university systems, and special-purpose procurement cooperatives. Broward County's Highway Construction and Engineering Division has posted multiple roadway milling and resurfacing solicitations; the Texas A&M University System has issued multiple ITBs for CNC and machine shop equipment; and Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle, posted a law enforcement equipment RFP on behalf of participating Washington counties and other jurisdictions nationwide.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. Broward County posted two roadway projects—Royal Palm Boulevard from East of University Drive to Riverside Drive (IFB TRN2132636C1, bids due September 14, 2026, estimated contract value $2.492 million with a 30 percent self-performance requirement and DBE participation encouraged) and Pine Island Road Capacity Expansion from SW 36th Street to Nova Drive (IFB TRN2131938C1, bids due June 2, 2026, with a mandatory 30 percent County Business Enterprise participation goal and liquidated damages provisions).
