Our most popular VMC mill series, the KVR Compact VMC mills series combine years of experience and best practice manufacturing to deliver CNC vertical machining centers with high accuracy, quality and rigidity.

  • Fanuc CNC Control. All machines are equipped with Fanuc controls, motors, and drives, with rapids of 1417 IPM. The ball screws are all pre-tensioned and cooled to give X, Y, and Z-axis positioning accuracies of .0002 inch and repeatability of .0001 inch.
  • AICC high speed machining. Allows you to machine complex shapes more accurately at higher speeds.
  • Roller Linear Ways (On all 3-axes).Roller type linear guides are used for greater load capacity and longer life on the bearing surfaces.
  • High-speed Spindle Standard.10,000 RPM Spindle with Chiller Higher RPMs and faster feed rates offer versatile solutions to our customers, which helps them complete their projects faster and become more profitable. The spindle chiller will extend the life of the spindle and ensures accuracy, increases the machine’s capacity and reduces maintenance costs.
  • 15 HP Peak Servo Spindle Motor.Our 15 HP, Fanuc Direct Drive Spindle and Motor Mount is chilled and is standard at 10K RPM with 12K and 15K options. Six guide blocks are used on the Z-axis to increase stability. The control is 4/5-axis capable. A 24-station side mount tool changer is standard on most machines. This gives fast 1.5-second tool changes to reduce production times.
  • 4-Axis Ready. With the ability to operate on different types of material, this allows spindle access to a workpiece from various angles. Ask us about our rotary table options to add another axis into your 4-axis vertical machining center.
  • Six Linear Blocks on Z-Axis. There are 6-linear blocks that give more support while eliminating vibration and provides more stability when taking deep cuts.
  • Chip Flush and Oil Skimmer. Chip evacuation from the frame of the machine by water jets into a chip tray keeps the area free of debris. Having oil-free coolant can also extend its usefulness and effectiveness, reducing the expense on maintenance and coolant replacement. Removing floating surface oils while aerating and refreshing coolant will extend tool life as well.
  • Chip Auger. Automated chip removal increases your productivity with solutions that safely remove the waste and debris from your operations.
