How much does the Vision Wide BM-4030 / 4037 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Vision Wide BM-4030 / 4037 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 cross rail moves on the Vision Wide BM-4030 / 4037. Where the maker's other bridge machines have a beam fixed at one height, the BM carries its beam on a W axis, so the whole rail can be raised for a tall part or lowered to keep the ram short over a low one.
Vision Wide gives the result in two figures: the maximum height for workpiece and machining is 2,450mm and 2,400mm. Those are far beyond what a fixed-rail machine with about a metre of Z can offer. W travel is 1,000 mm as standard, with 1,200 mm and 1,500 mm as options, and Z travel is 1,000 mm with 1,200 mm and 1,400 mm as options.
The pair shares 4,100 mm (161.4 in) of X travel and a 4,000×2,450 mm (157.5×96.5 in) table for 16,000 kg (35,273 lb). Y travel is 3,000 mm on the BM-4030 and 3,700 mm on the second model of the pair; the maker describes the AH attachment as an automatic 5-face function with 700mm longer Y-travel, which is what the second model number denotes.
Spindle power is 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp), and a 4,000 rpm 2-step gear type spindle is standard. Rapids are 10 / 10 / 12 / 2 m/min for X, Y, Z and W.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Movable cross rail on a W axis with 1,000 mm of standard travel
- Maximum workpiece height of 2,450mm, per the maker
- 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp) spindle motor as standard
- Automatic 5-face function with the AH attachment on the longer-Y version of the pair
Limitations
- W-axis rapid of 2 m/min, so rail moves are slow
- Cutting feed of 1-7,000 mm/min on X, Y and Z
- Shortest table of the BM series at 4,000×2,450 mm (157.5×96.5 in)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It is the vertical travel of the movable cross rail. The table lists 1,000 mm as standard with 1,200 mm and 1,500 mm as options. Vision Wide says the rail is positioned by a dual synchronized servo motor driving system.
02
Vision Wide states that the maximum height for workpiece and machining is 2,450mm and 2,400mm for the BM series. Confirm which cross rail and Z travel options those figures assume.
03
Y travel: 3,000/ 3,700 mm (118.1/ 145.7 in). The maker describes the AH attachment as an automatic 5-face function with 700mm longer Y-travel, which matches the longer figure.
04
The table is 4,000×2,450 mm (157.5×96.5 in) and carries 16,000 kg (35,273 lb). X travel is 4,100 mm (161.4 in).
