Machining center fits where your knee mill used to be
VM1
 
The VM1 is the fastest growing vertical machining center in North America because it is the perfect combination of size and functionality. It has the smallest footprint but is loaded with remarkably big capacity, productivity and user flexibility.

The 26x14x18” work envelope in a 70.9x62.5" working footprint makes the VM1 very attractive for most applications.

The VM1 also comes equipped with Hurco’s control system, bringing the flexibility and power of all Hurco machines to this compact version.

All of this for a base price that rivals anything on the market.
