Overview
The GF Machining Mikron MILL E 800 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from the Efficiency series, targeting job shops, mold makers, and contract manufacturers who need productive, versatile milling without the cost of the MILL P precision series.
The MILL E 800 offers X/Y/Z travels of 850 x 600 x 600 mm (33.5 x 23.6 x 23.6 in) on a T-slot table measuring 1,050 x 600 mm (41.3 x 23.6 in) with a 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) load capacity. The generous 600 mm Z travel provides clearance for tall workpieces and deep-cavity mold blocks.
Spindle options span 12,000, 16,000, and 20,000 RPM, all with HSK-A63 taper. The 30-pocket magazine (expandable to 60) and 40 m/min rapid traverse support productive job sequencing. Pricing ranges from $180,000 to $300,000.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 850 x 600 x 600 mm travels with 1,000 kg table capacity covers a broad range of machining work
- 600 mm Z travel provides clearance for tall workpieces many competitors cannot reach
- Three spindle speed options (12K, 16K, 20K RPM) for any material mix
- HSK-A63 taper maintains compatibility with standard shop tooling
- GF build quality and thermal stability at a mid-range price point
- 40 m/min rapid traverse and 60-pocket magazine support multi-job sequencing
Limitations
- 15 m/min cutting feed rate limits aggressive roughing throughput
- 3-axis machine requires refixturing for multi-face work
- Lacks ITC thermal compensation of the MILL P series
- Competes with established Japanese and Korean VMCs at lower prices
