Baileigh VM-949E-VS 9" × 49" Variable Speed Vertical Milling Machine
Are you running a machine shop or fabrication environment that needs infinitely variable spindle speed and a longer table for larger workpiece setups on 220V single-phase power?
What if that mill gave you 60 to 4,200 RPM, an R8 spindle with power drawbar, X-axis power feed with rapid traverse, and a DRO on Meehanite castings with a 9-inch by 49-inch table?
Meet the Baileigh VM-949E-VS, a 9-inch by 49-inch variable speed vertical milling machine built for machine shops and fabrication environments that need flexible spindle control and a longer table for demanding daily milling work.
With the VM-949E-VS, you get a 3 HP continuous-duty motor on 220V single-phase power, rigid Meehanite castings, dovetail ways with adjustable gibs, Taiwan lead screws, and a full set of standard features that support extended daily machining.
When the VM-949E-VS is set up for your job, you get accurate, repeatable milling results on a wider range of workpiece sizes with a machine built for dependable industrial shop use.

Baileigh VM-949E-VS for Variable Speed Vertical Milling on Larger Stock
Infinitely Variable Speed from 60 to 4,200 RPM
The VM-949E-VS adjusts spindle speed infinitely from 60 to 4,200 RPM, letting operators dial in the exact cutting rate for the material and tooling at hand. This wide variable range covers slow heavy cuts on steel through high-speed passes on aluminum and non-ferrous materials without stepping through fixed pulley positions.
9" × 49" Table and Meehanite Castings Handle Larger Setups
The 9-inch by 49-inch precision table supports workpieces up to 750 lbs. and accommodates longer stock and larger fixtures than shorter table mills. Rigid Meehanite castings keep the machine stable under load, and dovetail ways with adjustable gibs and Taiwan lead screws maintain accuracy and repeatability through extended daily use.
X-Axis Power Feed and R8 Spindle Improve Workflow
The X-axis power feed with rapid traverse reduces operator effort on facing and profile work where consistent feed rate directly affects surface finish quality. The R8 spindle with power drawbar accepts common tooling and simplifies tool changes, keeping the machine productive through jobs that require multiple tooling configurations.
DRO, Coolant System, and One-Shot Lubricator Support Daily Use
The X/Y-axis DRO provides accurate positioning feedback and reduces setup errors on close-tolerance work. The integrated coolant system with splash guard and plumbed return line manages heat and chip control during cutting, while the one-shot lubricator simplifies way lubrication to keep slide movement smooth and accurate through long production days.
