Bernardo Drill-Milling Machine FM 40 HSV – Compact, versatile, and precise
The Bernardo FM 40 HSV drill-milling machine is a solid and versatile machine, designed for applications such as drilling, milling, and threading. The 2-stage motor with 12 speeds (75–3200 rpm) guarantees power and flexibility, while the quick selector allows for fast speed changes.
The gear head is tiltable from -90° to +90°, rotatable 360°, and height-adjustable, offering extensive machining possibilities. The 730 x 210 mm cross table, with travels of 520 x 175 mm, and the three automatic spindle feeds make the machine suitable for precision machining.
Thanks to oil-hardened gears, high-precision tapered bearings, and a cast iron structure, the FM 40 HSV combines stability and reliability. Standard features include: LED light, digital spindle stroke indicator, adjustable protection, and professional accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the KF series and the BF/FM series in the Bernardo range?
The KF series (KF 16, KF 20, KF 25, KF 28) is the compact range: smaller tables, MT2/MT3 tapers, suitable for workshops with limited space and small to medium-sized workpieces. The BF series (BF 25, BF 30, BF 35, BF 40, BF 45) and FM series (FM 40, FM 45, FM 50, FM 55) are the professional versions: larger tables, MT3/MT4 tapers, more powerful motors, longer travels — for medium-sized workpieces in continuous production. The FM series has a 360° tilting head that the KF does not.
What do the suffixes "Vario" and "HSV" mean?
Vario: continuously adjustable spindle speed without changing belts. HSV: spindle head with tilt from -90° to +90° (Head Swivel Variable). BDC: integrated 3-axis digital position display (Digital Readout). The HSV + Vario combination is the most flexible configuration for workshops working on different materials and geometries.
Is the 3-axis DRO included as standard or is it an option?
It depends on the model. Models with "BDC", "DT 40", "ES-12V" or "with 3-axis display" in the name include the digital display as standard. Models without this designation do not include it — it is available as an optional accessory. Check the specific model description.
Are spare parts available?
Original spare parts available with 3–5 working days shipping. Customer service available in Italian.
How much space is needed in the workshop for the BF/FM series?
BF and FM milling machines are fixed workshop machines — not portable. Consider space for X and Y axis travels plus at least 60 cm clear on each side for safe operation. Contact Krollit for complete dimensions of the specific model.
