Who uses the PKFM 100 and for what
The Bernardo PKFM 100 chamfering machine is a pneumatic tool for deburring and chamfering metal edges: it removes burrs from cutting, punching, and drilling, creating a precise 45° chamfer that eliminates dangerous sharp edges and prepares surfaces for welding or treatment. At 1.4 kg and with pneumatic power, it is extremely lightweight — it is used by holding it in hand like a small workshop tool. It requires connection to a compressor with 6–8 bar pressure. In Krollit customers' workshops, it is used by metal fabricators, blacksmiths, and workshop operators for systematic deburring after cutting.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Bernardo chamfering machines KFM 100K, KFM 140, KFM 175, KFM 200M and KFM 500M?
KFM 100K: fixed 45°, 4 mm chamfer, 100 mm guide, 720W, 3.5 kg. KFM 140: fixed 45°, 3 mm chamfer, 140 mm guide, 720W, 3.8 kg. KFM 175: fixed 45°, 5 mm chamfer, 175 mm guide, 1400W, 5.2 kg. KFM 200M: variable 15°–45°, 10 mm chamfer, 200 mm guide, 550W (230V or 400V), 11 kg. KFM 500M: variable 15°–45°, 5 mm chamfer, 500 mm guide, 550W (400V), 33 kg. The choice depends on the chamfer width, guide length, and required angle.
Are TCT inserts interchangeable between models?
No. Each model uses inserts of specific geometry. Original Bernardo replacement inserts available with 3–5 business days shipping. Specify the exact model when ordering.
Does it work on aluminum and stainless steel?
Yes. Bernardo chamfering machines work on steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals. For stainless steel, reduce the feed rate. For aluminum, use a specific lubricant to prevent aluminum buildup on the inserts.
How is the chamfer width adjusted?
Adjustment is done via a micrometer ring with 0.1 mm graduation — rotate until the desired width is reached and lock. The 0.1 mm precision ensures repeatability on identical series of parts.
Which compressor should it be used with?
A compressor with a minimum flow rate of 100–150 l/min at 6–8 bar is sufficient for intermittent use. For continuous use, prefer a compressor with at least a 50-liter tank.
