How much does the WFL M35 MILLTURN cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a mill-turn / multi-tasking machine in this class — not a quote from WFL Millturn Technologies. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
On the WFL M35 MILLTURN the milling spindle carries the same 33 kW (44.2 hp) rating as the smaller of the two turning drives. For a machine with a Ø520 mm (20.5 in) turning diameter and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) between centres, that is a strong hint about the intended work: parts where milling, drilling and boring take as much of the cycle as turning does.
That spindle sits on a B-axis with a swivel range of -110° to +110° and is offered in a 9,000 rpm and a 12,000 rpm version. Torque is 284 Nm (209.5 ft-lb) or 213 Nm (157.1 ft-lb) at 40% duty cycle, dropping to 233 Nm or 175 Nm at 100%, and power drops from 33 kW to 27 kW in step. For face milling and larger drills in steel the 284 Nm version is the one to ask for.
Linear travel is 600 mm (23.6 in) in X and 250 mm (9.8 in) in Y. Set against a 520 mm swing, 250 mm of Y reaches a little under half the diameter, so a wide flat or a far-off-centre bore on a large part means rotating the workpiece between cuts. Tool storage is 40, 80 or 120 stations.
For turning there is a 33 kW drive with 630 Nm (464.7 ft-lb) or a 54 kW (72.4 hp) drive with 1,600 Nm (1,180.1 ft-lb), both at 40% duty cycle, and listed top speeds of 3,300 and 4,000 rpm. The M35-G is entered in the centre-distance row at 1,800 or 1,680 mm. When a part outgrows the swing, the M50 is the step up: Ø670 mm (26.4 in) with 800 mm (31.5 in) of X and 400 mm (15.7 in) of Y.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Milling spindle rated 33 kW (44.2 hp) at 40% duty cycle and 27 kW at 100%, equal in headline power to the smaller turning drive
- Up to 284 Nm (209.5 ft-lb) of milling torque at 40% duty cycle, or a 12,000 rpm version for small tools
- B-axis swivel range of -110° to +110°
- Tool storage of 40, 80 or 120 stations
- Turning drive choice of 630 Nm (464.7 ft-lb) or 1,600 Nm (1,180.1 ft-lb) at 40% duty cycle
Limitations
- Y travel is 250 mm (9.8 in) against a 520 mm swing, so wide milled features on large parts need the workpiece rotated between cuts
- Milling torque falls to 233 Nm or 175 Nm at 100% duty cycle, depending on the spindle version
- The fastest milling spindle listed is 12,000 rpm
- Turning diameter stops at Ø520 mm (20.5 in); the M50 takes Ø670 mm (26.4 in)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A B-axis milling spindle rated 33 kW (44.2 hp) at 40% duty cycle and 27 kW at 100%. It comes in a 9,000 rpm and a 12,000 rpm version. Torque is listed as 284 Nm and 213 Nm at 40% duty cycle, and 233 Nm and 175 Nm at 100%. The table does not tie each torque to a speed, but at equal power the higher torque goes with the lower speed.
02
The B-axis swivels from -110° to +110°. X travel is 600 mm (23.6 in) and Y travel is 250 mm (9.8 in). No Z travel is listed as such; the working length follows from the nominal centre distance of 2,000 mm (78.7 in).
03
It appears in one row of the table, the nominal centre distance, where it is listed at 1,800 or 1,680 mm against 2,000 mm for the M35. The other rows give no separate M35-G values, so spindle, travel and magazine details for that variant should be confirmed before ordering.
04
The tool magazine is listed with 40, 80 or 120 stations. The table gives no maximum tool length, diameter or weight, so check those limits against long boring bars and large cutters before settling on a magazine size.
05
When the part is too big or the milling too far off centre. The M50 turns Ø670 mm (26.4 in) and has 800 mm (31.5 in) of X and 400 mm (15.7 in) of Y, against Ø520 mm (20.5 in), 600 mm (23.6 in) and 250 mm (9.8 in) on the M35. Turning torque on the M50 is listed at 2,000 or 3,600 Nm, above the 1,600 Nm maximum of the M35.
