How much does the Feeler VMP-65 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Feeler VMP-65 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
Top of the VMP series, the Feeler VMP-65 has 1,650 mm (65.0 in) of X travel and 800 mm (31.5 in) of both Y and Z. Its table measures 1,700 x 800 mm (66.9 x 31.5 in).
Odd as it may seem for the largest model, the VMP-65 is a 40-taper machine only. The header in Feeler's table reads VMP-65 (#40), the spindle row gives 10,000 rpm, and the magazine holds 22 tools. The No.50 alternative that the VMP-45 and VMP-50 offer is not listed here. So this is a big-envelope machine for moderate cutting loads, not a heavy roughing mill.
The table rating confirms it. 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) is the same figure as on the two models below, spread over a much larger surface. Large aluminium plates, vacuum fixtures, welded fabrications that need light machining, and big fixture plates loaded with many small parts all sit well inside that limit. A solid steel block sized to the table would not.
The 800 mm of Z is the feature to plan around. It allows tall weldments and deep boxes to pass under the spindle, and leaves working height above a large rotary or trunnion table. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 24 m/min (945 ipm) on Z. Feeler describes the series as cast iron with an A-frame column and enlarged base, on hardened linear guides.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,650 x 800 x 800 mm travels, the largest envelope in the VMP series
- 800 mm (31.5 in) of Z for tall weldments, boxes and trunnion setups
- Y travel equals the 800 mm table depth
- 10,000 rpm No.40 spindle keeps small-tool work possible on large parts
Limitations
- No.40 taper only; the No.50 choice of the VMP-50 is not offered in the table
- Table load is 1,500 kg (3,307 lb), no more than on the VMP-45
- 22 tools for a machine of this size
- Z rapid of 24 m/min (945 ipm) across an 800 mm stroke

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,650 mm (65.0 in) in X, 800 mm (31.5 in) in Y and 800 mm (31.5 in) in Z. The table is 1,700 x 800 mm (66.9 x 31.5 in) with a maximum loading weight of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb).
02
Feeler's table does not list one. The column is headed VMP-65 (#40) and gives a 7/24 taper No.40 at 10,000 rpm, while the VMP-45 and VMP-50 columns are headed #40/50. Ask the maker if a No.50 spindle is needed on this frame.
03
The VMX-1650 has the same travels, table and 1,500 kg rating, with a spindle listed at 12,000 rpm and a magazine of 24 tools. The VMP-65 is listed at 10,000 rpm and 22 tools. Rapid rates are 36/36/24 m/min on both.
04
The series description says the VMP machines are equipped with hardened linear guides and use low-friction Turcite B wear pads to enhance cutting rigidity and surface finish. There is no guideway row in the spec table for individual models.
