Baileigh VM-949 9" × 49" EVS Vertical Milling Machine
Are you running a small to medium industrial machine shop that needs a heavy-duty vertical knee mill with Yaskawa inverter-driven variable speed and a Mitutoyo DRO on either single-phase or 3-phase power?
What if that mill gave you 60 to 4,200 RPM, powered X/Y/Z axes, an air drawbar, and a Mitutoyo X/Y-axis DRO in your choice of 220V single-phase or 220V 3-phase power to match your shop?
Meet the Baileigh VM-949, a 9-inch by 49-inch EVS vertical milling machine available in 220V single-phase and 220V 3-phase configurations, built for industrial machine shops and fabrication environments that need precise, flexible milling performance.
With the VM-949, you get a 3 HP Yaskawa inverter-driven motor, an NT40 spindle with air drawbar, robust castings for vibration-free milling, and a full set of standard features that support demanding daily machining work.
When the VM-949 is set up for your job, you get accurate, repeatable milling results on large stock with a machine that matches your shop power and performs at an industrial level.
Baileigh VM-949 for Industrial EVS Vertical Knee Milling Work
Yaskawa Inverter-Driven Variable Speed from 60 to 4,200 RPM
The Yaskawa inverter drive adjusts spindle speed infinitely from 60 to 4,200 RPM, delivering flexible cutting speed control across a wide range of materials and tooling. This inverter-driven system provides consistent torque and smooth speed transitions that protect tooling and improve surface finish quality on demanding milling work.
Mitutoyo DRO and Powered X/Y/Z Axes Support Precise Machining
The Mitutoyo X/Y-axis DRO provides accurate positioning down to tenths of thousandths, reducing setup errors on close-tolerance work. Powered X, Y, and Z axes deliver smooth, controlled feed rates across all three axes, improving productivity and reducing operator fatigue on longer milling and drilling operations.
9" × 49" Table and NT40 Spindle Handle a Wide Range of Setups
The 9-inch by 49-inch precision-ground table supports workpieces up to 750 lbs. and handles a wide range of workpiece sizes and fixture setups. The NT40 spindle taper with air drawbar provides broad tooling compatibility and fast tool changes, keeping the machine productive through jobs that require multiple tooling configurations.
Two Power Configurations Match Your Shop Requirements
The VM-949 is available in 220V single-phase for shops without 3-phase service and 220V 3-phase for industrial environments with 3-phase power. Both configurations share the same 3 HP Yaskawa inverter drive, Mitutoyo DRO, NT40 spindle, powered axes, and integrated coolant system with catch tray.
