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 work. 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, greater travel — for medium-sized parts in continuous production. The FM series has a 360° swiveling 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 inclination 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 "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 business days shipping. Customer service in Italian available.

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