Knee Mill Machine
Baileigh’s VM-1258 vertical milling machine is Baileigh’s premier knee mill and is very heavily built to take heavy cuts of material. This vertical mill has a very heavy Meehanite® casting base and head. The internally driven XYZ axis use ball screws to move the carriages on boxed ways that are coated with Turcite® B for longevity and less friction.
We have eliminated the J-Head adjustment to make this a rigid head machine. This alone improves the rigidity by almost 30%. Combine that with a Yasakawa® inverter drive that uses a heavy HTDT drive belt to turn the very rigid NST 40 spindle. The spindle is positively held in place using a air bar system for quick tool changes and a lock solid hold adding to the rigidity of this fine vertical milling machine.
The finish on this knee mill is impeccable and all the features are factory installed so everything has been done right the first time. The X & Z digital read out is a Mitutoya® DRO that is extremely accurate down to 1/10th of a thousandth of an inch. The DRO features inches or metric. The ways are protected from sharp chips with way skirts.
Baileigh Industrial’s vertical milling machines are built to some of the highest degrees of quality on the market today. This model is typically in stock at all times. Please call a service engineer for further details.
