Drilling-milling machine OPTImill MH 20VL

The Optimum OPTImill MH 20VL is a 230 V drilling and milling machine with an electronically infinitely variable drive (100 to 3000 min⁻¹), a 700 × 180 mm cross table and 480 mm X-axis travel. Tapered roller bearings hold spindle concentricity to 0.015 mm or better, while play-free adjustable axes, a ±60° tiltable head and 24 V safety electronics let you mill and drill accurately and safely, without chatter, loose axes or rework on small precision jobs.
