How much does the Feeler FMH-630 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Feeler FMH-630 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Feeler FMH-630 is a 50-taper horizontal machining center on 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallets, with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of X travel and 850 mm (33.5 in) of both Y and Z. Each pallet carries 1,200 kg (2,646 lb).
This is the first FMH size offered only with the No.50 spindle, at 6,000 rpm. It is also quicker than the standard FMH-500: rapids are 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) on all axes. A 630 mm pallet with a metre of X is the usual choice for transmission cases, large valve bodies, hydraulic manifolds and machine tool castings, parts that are too heavy for the next pallet size down and need 50-taper boring bars and face mills.
Feeler gives more structural detail for this model than for any other in the series. It runs on high-load roller linear guides in all three axes, specified as 65 mm roller linear guides with enlarged screws, and the castings have CAE-optimized rib structures with a dual-layer reinforcement design. Guide lubrication is by a Japanese LUBE system, which the maker links to wear resistance and easy maintenance.
The tool range is 40-120. For a 50-taper horizontal doing boring work, also ask for the maximum tool length and weight, the pallet indexing increment and the spindle's torque and drive type. None of them is in the series table, and they determine whether a long line-boring bar or a heavy face mill can be used.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,000 mm (39.4 in) in X, 850 mm (33.5 in) in Y and 850 mm (33.5 in) in Z. Rapid traverse is 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) on each axis.
02
Pallets are 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) with a maximum loading weight of 1,200 kg (2,646 lb). Feeler describes the FMH series as having a rotary pallet changer with a low center of gravity.
03
Feeler says it is equipped with high-load three-axis roller linear guides with high rigidity and low friction, names 65 mm roller linear guides and enlarged screws, and pairs them with Japanese LUBE lubrication.
04
The FMH-800 has 800 x 800 mm pallets rated 2,000 kg and travels of 1,300 x 1,020 x 1,100 mm, with a tool range of 60-120. Spindle speed, taper and rapid rates are the same as on the FMH-630.
