Feeler VMX-1100

Q: How much does the Feeler VMX-1100 cost?

The price estimate for the Feeler VMX-1100 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/feeler-vmx-1100#price; the request is passed to Feeler or an authorised dealer.

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Feeler VMX-1100 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

Feeler's VMX-1100 opens the heavy end of the VMX series. Its table is rated for 1,500 kg (3,307 lb), close to double the 800 kg of the VMX-1020, and it is the first model in the range with 610 mm (24.0 in) of Y travel. X is 1,100 mm (43.3 in) and Z is 600 mm (23.6 in).

The table measures 1,200 x 600 mm (47.2 x 23.6 in). Because Y travel is a little more than the table depth, a cutter can run off both the front and back edges of a full-depth plate, which matters when facing mold bases or squaring large blocks. The deeper cross-section is what separates this machine from the metre-class model, not the small difference in X travel.

Mass costs speed. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 24 m/min (945 ipm) on Z, the lowest set in the VMX table and shared with the VMX-1300 and VMX-1650. The spindle is the same as on every VMX: 12,000 rpm, 7/24 No.40 taper, direct drive, with 24 tools in the magazine.

That last point is worth weighing. A 1,500 kg workpiece on a 40-taper, 12,000 rpm spindle is a combination for finishing and semi-finishing large parts, such as mold work, more than for heavy roughing with big cutters. Feeler's series text supports that reading: it speaks of mold machining and high-speed, high-precision performance, and the table offers no No.50 taper alternative for this model.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load, the highest rating in the VMX series
610 mm (24.0 in) of Y travel over a 600 mm deep table, so cutters can clear both edges
600 mm of Z travel for tall workpieces and deep cavities
12,000 rpm direct-drive spindle and 24-tool magazine, as on the rest of the range

Limitations

Rapids fall to 36 m/min on X and Y and 24 m/min (945 ipm) on Z
Only a No.40 taper is listed; there is no No.50 column for this model
X travel of 1,100 mm is shorter than the 1,200 mm table, so the table ends lie outside the cut
No spindle power or torque is published, which matters most on a machine meant for heavy parts

Best For

Mold bases and die blocks up to 1,500 kg Plates up to 600 mm deep that need full-width facing Finishing and semi-finishing of large steel parts with 40-taper tooling Shops moving up from a metre-class machine for depth rather than length

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How heavy a workpiece can the Feeler VMX-1100 take?

The maximum loading weight in Feeler's table is 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on a 1,200 x 600 mm (47.2 x 23.6 in) table. The VMX-1300 and VMX-1650 carry the same rating on longer tables.

02 What are the axis travels?

1,100 mm (43.3 in) in X, 610 mm (24.0 in) in Y and 600 mm (23.6 in) in Z. Rapid traverse is 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 24 m/min (945 ipm) on Z.

03 How does the VMX-1100 compare with the VMX-1300?

They share Y and Z travel, the 1,500 kg load rating, rapid rates, spindle and magazine. The VMX-1300 has 1,300 mm of X and a 1,420 x 600 mm table. Choose by part length. Feeler's text singles out the VMX-1300 and VMX-1650 for mold and large-part manufacturing.

04 Is the spindle suited to heavy roughing?

The published data cannot answer that. Feeler lists 12,000 rpm and a 7/24 taper No.40 and describes a direct-drive BBT40 spindle, but gives no power or torque. Direct-drive 40-taper spindles generally favour speed over low-end torque, so ask for the torque curve if roughing steel is the main job.
