Who uses the BFM 180 and for what
The Bernardo BFM 180 is a universal bench/workshop milling machine for metalworking: peripheral and face milling, drilling, boring, tapping, and surface milling on steel, aluminum, and cast iron. With a 1220 × 360 mm table, ISO 40 taper, and 600 mm longitudinal travel, it covers the mid-to-high industrial range. The −45°/+45° tilting head allows for bevel milling and angled operations without rotating the workpiece. In Krollit customer workshops, it is used by mechanical workshops, equipment manufacturers, and machining centers for precision parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ISO 40 and ISO 50 taper?
ISO 40 is the standard for medium-sized professional milling machines (BFM 180, WFM 750/800/850, MFM 230). ISO 50 is the heavy industrial standard for large-format milling machines (BFM 200, BFM 2100 Servo): larger taper diameter, larger tools, greater rigidity in heavy milling. The BFM 180 uses ISO 40.
Does the BFM 180 have automatic feed?
The BFM 180 has manual feed on all three axes. For automatic motorized feeds, consider the Servo versions of the WFM range.
What cutting fluid is used?
For steel: water+soluble oil emulsion at 5–8%. For aluminum: neat cutting oil or kerosene. For cast iron: dry cutting (cast iron produces lubricating graphite). Always check compatibility with the specific material.
Are spare parts and assistance available?
Original Bernardo spare parts available with 3–5 working days shipping. Italian customer support available.
How much space is needed in the workshop?
Footprint N/A mm. For workpiece handling, clear space is needed on all sides of the table equal to the longitudinal travel (600 mm) in front and behind.
