2013 Milltronics VKM3 CNC Vertical Mill

The 2013 Milltronics VKM3 is a precision-focused CNC vertical mill designed for toolrooms and small-scale production environments. Outfitted with a 50 inch by 12 inch table and 30 inch X-axis travel, this machine provides ample capacity for general-purpose milling. Its 5 horsepower spindle delivers speeds from 60 to 4500 RPM through a CT30 taper, supported by 18 inch of Z-axis travel and 15 inch of Y, offering fine control in vertical applications. The integrated Centurion 7 CNC control delivers intuitive operation and conversational programming ideal for prototype or one-off work.

Compared to compact knee mills or basic manual mills retrofitted with DROs, the VKM3 stands apart with its full CNC integration, rigid construction, and broader travel envelope. While not equipped with automatic tool changers or high-end servo drives, it represents a significant leap from entry-level toolroom mills and manual bridgeports, offering much more programming flexibility and repeatability.
