Bernardo Milling and Drilling Machine FM 50 HSV

Bernardo Drilling-Milling Machine FM 50 HSV – Versatility and Precision with Automatic Feeds

The Bernardo FM 50 HSV drilling-milling machine is a professional machine designed for drilling, milling, and tapping. Thanks to the 2-speed motor with 12 ranges (75–3200 rpm) and hardened and ground gears in an oil bath, it offers smooth and powerful operation even under heavy loads.

The machine is equipped with automatic spindle feed with three selectable feeds and an integrated tapping device. The tiltable head ±60° and the 800 x 240 mm cross table with 555 x 225 mm travels offer great operational flexibility. The 90 W lifting motor allows for easy height adjustment of the head, while the digital spindle travel display improves machining precision.

With its robust cast iron structure, adjustable protection with microswitch, LED light, and adjustable dovetail guides, the FM 50 HSV proves to be a complete and reliable 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 connections, 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 connections, more powerful motors, longer travels — for medium-sized workpieces in continuous production. The FM series has a 360° tilting head which 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. Please check the specific model description.

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 the X and Y axis travels plus at least 60 cm free on each side for safe working. Contact Krollit for the full dimensions of the specific model.
