How much does the Feeler VMX-760 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Feeler VMX-760 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
Take the VMX-580, lengthen the table and the X axis, and you have the Feeler VMX-760. X travel is 760 mm (29.9 in) over an 890 x 420 mm (35.0 x 16.5 in) table, while Y stays at 420 mm (16.5 in) and Z at 510 mm (20.1 in). Nothing else in Feeler's table moves: the spindle is the same 12,000 rpm No.40 unit, the magazine still holds 20 tools, and the table is still rated for 300 kg (661 lb).
That makes this a long, narrow machine. The table is more than twice as long as it is deep, which suits two or three vises in a row, long bar-shaped parts, or a rotary unit at one end with a tailstock at the other. It does not suit deep plates. A part that needs more than 420 mm of Y belongs on the VMX-820, which has 520 mm of Y and an 800 kg table.
Rapid traverse is 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) in X and Y and 32 m/min (1,260 ipm) in Z. The longer X axis keeps the same rapid rate as the shorter machine, so the extra travel does not slow moves between stations.
Keep the load rating in view when planning multi-vise setups. 300 kg spread over three vises and their parts is reachable, and the longer table makes it tempting to add more. Feeler describes the VMX-760 as compact yet rigid and aimed at high-speed machining of small parts, on a Meehanite cast iron structure with a direct-drive spindle.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 760 mm (29.9 in) of X travel and an 890 mm long table at the same 48 m/min X rapid as the shorter VMX-580
- Table length suits several vises in a row or a rotary unit with tailstock
- 12,000 rpm direct-drive spindle with a 7/24 No.40 taper
- Y travel of 420 mm covers the full 420 mm table depth
- Meehanite cast iron construction with an A-frame reinforced column base, as Feeler describes the series
Limitations
- Y travel is only 420 mm (16.5 in); deeper parts need the VMX-820 with 520 mm
- Table load stays at 300 kg (661 lb) although the table is longer than the VMX-580's
- 20-tool magazine, four fewer than the 24 of the VMX-820
- No spindle power, torque or machine weight in the maker's series table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
890 x 420 mm (35.0 x 16.5 in), with a maximum loading weight of 300 kg (661 lb). X travel is 760 mm, so the spindle does not reach the last part of the table length at each end, which is normally where the clamps sit.
02
It depends on depth and weight. The VMX-820 has 820 mm of X, 520 mm of Y, 560 mm of Z, an 800 kg table and 24 tools, but its X and Y rapids are 40 m/min. The VMX-760 is faster at 48 m/min and is enough when the parts stay inside 420 mm of Y and 300 kg.
03
Feeler lists rapid traverse of 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) for X and for Y, and 32 m/min (1,260 ipm) for Z. Cutting feed rates and acceleration are not published in the series table.
04
The table gives 12,000 rpm and a 7/24 taper No.40. The series text calls it a high-speed direct-drive spindle and refers to a 12,000 rpm BBT40 spindle, so dual-contact BBT holders are the intended tooling. Motor power is not stated.
