How much does the EMAG VG 110 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc grinding machine in this class — not a quote from EMAG. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The EMAG VG 110 is a vertical grinding machine for small bores: its table lists a maximum internal machining diameter of 60 mm (2.4 in), workpiece diameters of 2 - 60 mm (0.08 - 2.4 in) and a maximum grinding length of 60 mm (2.5 in). Travels are 460 mm (18 in) in X and 225 mm (9 in) in Z, and the chuck is 100 / 190 mm (4 / 7.5 in).
The vertical layout suits short chucked parts such as gears and bushes, where the bore is the precision feature. With the part held in a chuck below and the grinding spindle working along a vertical Z, chips and coolant fall away from the bore instead of collecting in it. The Z axis is driven by a linear drive unit rather than a ball screw, which favours the rapid short strokes of oscillating internal grinding.
The long X stroke stands out next to the small part size. At 460 mm (18 in) it is many times the 60 mm (2.4 in) maximum diameter, which suggests X does more than feed the wheel into the bore. Ask EMAG how loading and any second spindle are arranged on the configuration you are offered, since the table does not say.
A high-resolution measuring system sits 100 mm from the machining area, close enough to keep thermal and mechanical error between measurement and cut small, and the machine has an integrated cooling system. The table gives no spindle speed, power or control data.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Bores from 2 - 60 mm (0.08 - 2.4 in) in diameter, for small precision parts
- Z axis driven by a linear drive unit

- Integrated cooling system
- Chuck size of 100 / 190 mm (4 / 7.5 in)
Limitations
- Grinding length stops at 60 mm (2.5 in), so long bores are out

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Internal diameters up to 60 mm (2.4 in), on workpieces from 2 - 60 mm (0.08 - 2.4 in) in diameter, with a maximum grinding length of 60 mm (2.5 in). It is a machine for small, short bores rather than deep ones.
02
EMAG lists a vertical machine orientation. With the part in a chuck and the spindle above, chips and coolant drain down out of the bore, and gravity seats the part in the chuck, which helps on small parts with short clamping lengths.
03
EMAG lists 100 / 190 mm (4 / 7.5 in) as the chuck size. The page does not say whether these are two options or two positions, so confirm which applies to the machine offered.
04
A high-resolution measuring system is mounted 100 mm from the machining area. The short distance limits the error that can build up between measuring and grinding. The table does not describe the gauge type, so ask whether it measures in process or after grinding.
