Bernardo Mill-Drill FM 45 HSV – Versatility and Power for Precision Machining
The Bernardo FM 45 HSV mill-drill is a robust and versatile machine, suitable for drilling, milling, and threading. Thanks to its two-speed motor (75–3200 rpm) and quick gear selector, it offers a wide range of applications with simple and fast changes.
The swivelling head from -60° to +60°, the 800 x 240 mm cross table with travels of 555 x 225 mm, and automatic spindle feeds allow for angular machining, chamfers, and deep drilling. The cast-iron structure minimises vibrations, while dovetail guides on the X and Y axes ensure stability and precision.
The FM 45 HSV is also equipped with a threading device, digital spindle travel indicator, adjustable protection with microswitch, LED light, and professional accessories, making it a complete machine for workshops and mechanical laboratories.

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 taper, suitable for workshops with limited space and small-to-medium sized machining. 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 taper, more powerful motors, longer travels — for medium-sized workpieces in continuous production. The FM series has a 360° swivelling head that the KF does not have.
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 combination of HSV + Vario 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 the designation "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. Please check the specific model description.
Are spare parts available?
Original spare parts available with 3–5 working day shipping. Customer support available in Italian.
How much space is needed in the workshop for the BF/FM series?
BF and FM milling machines are stationary workshop machines — not portable. Consider space for the X and Y axis travels plus at least 60 cm clear space on each side for safe working. Contact Krollit for the complete dimensions of the specific model.
