How much does the Huron Kmill 10 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Huron Kmill 10 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 Huron Kmill 10 is a three-axis portal machining centre for mould and die work, with travels of 1,000 x 700 x 600 mm (39.4 x 27.6 x 23.6 in) and a table that takes 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). It is the larger of the two Kmill models and trades axis speed for capacity.
That trade shows clearly in Huron's table. Feedrates are 30 m/min on X and Y and 18 m/min on Z. The stated positioning figure is 0.015 mm on X and Y and 0.007 mm on Z, with repeatability of 0.007 mm and 0.005 mm respectively. A tighter Z than X and Y is what cavity work needs, since depth errors show up directly on parting surfaces.
Power comes from an ISO 40 spindle that runs to 15,000 rpm with 23.6 kW and 110 Nm, and a characteristic speed of 2,680 rpm. The 30-pocket magazine takes tools up to 90 mm in diameter, 300 mm long and 7 kg. A 300 mm tool in a 600 mm Z stroke leaves usable clearance over a deep block.
The table is 1,250 x 700 mm. Huron describes the frame as ribbed cast iron that absorbs the vibration of tough cutting conditions, with floor anchoring to keep geometry stable. Machine weight is 9,200 kg (20,282 lb), and the installation is 5,300 mm wide by 2,680 mm deep with doors open and conveyor.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load on a 1,250 x 700 mm table
- Z-axis positioning of 0.007 mm and repeatability of 0.005 mm
- 23.6 kW and 110 Nm at the spindle, with 15,000 rpm for finishing
- Tools up to 300 mm long fit the 30-pocket magazine
- Only 2,680 mm deep with doors open and conveyor
Limitations
- Z feedrate is 18 m/min and X and Y are 30 m/min, well below the 40 m/min of the Kmill 8
- X and Y positioning is stated as 0.015 mm
- Tool weight is limited to 7 kg, which restricts large face mills
- The structure must be anchored to the floor

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Huron gives an admissible load of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on a table of 1,250 x 700 mm (49.2 x 27.6 in). The Kmill 8, by comparison, is rated for 500 kg on an 800 x 600 mm table.
02
Huron lists feedrates of 30 m/min for X and Y and 18 m/min for Z. The row is headed feedrates, not rapid traverse, so confirm with Huron which mode the figures describe before using them in cycle-time estimates.
03
Positioning uncertainty is 0.015 mm on X and Y and 0.007 mm on Z. Repeatability is 0.007 mm on X and Y and 0.005 mm on Z. The vertical axis is therefore the most accurate of the three.
04
The spindle has an ISO 40 taper. The magazine holds 30 tools with a maximum diameter of 90 mm, a maximum length of 300 mm and a maximum weight of 7 kg (15 lb).
