The price estimate for the Feeler FMH-500 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/feeler-fmh-500#price; the request is passed to Feeler or an authorised dealer.
Three columns appear in Feeler's table: #40 with a 7/24 Taper No.40 at 8,000 rpm, and #50 (DDS) and #50 (BELT), both with a 7/24 Taper No.50 at 6,000 rpm.
Feeler prints 1°: 500 kg / 0.001°: 600 kg. The pallet is 500 x 500 mm (19.7 x 19.7 in). The load therefore depends on which rotary table is fitted, the 1° indexing table or the 0.001° table.
X is 762 mm (30.0 in) with the No.40 spindle and 730 mm (28.7 in) with the No.50 spindle. Y and Z are 710 mm (28.0 in) on all versions.
The FMH-500 Premium is faster: rapids of 48 m/min, 800 mm of Z travel and spindle speeds of 10,000 rpm for No.40 and 8,000 rpm for No.50. The standard FMH-500 lists 30 m/min, 710 mm of Z and 8,000 or 6,000 rpm.
