More Length in the Φ560 Class

The BML-560M is the medium-bed step of the Φ560 box way class: the same 8-inch chuck, Φ62 mm bore, and 4,500 rpm spindle as the 560S, with machining length extended from 320 to 570 mm. Shaft-and-flange parts, spindles, and fittings that outgrow the short bed but not the 8-inch grip land here.

The guideways are hand-scraped along the full bed, so the geometric stability covers the entire travel, and the 30-degree bed inclination keeps chips moving on longer cuts. A 6-inch chuck option raises spindle speed to 6,000 rpm for smaller-diameter work.

BML-560M or Its Siblings?

Shorter, denser parts? The BML-560S keeps the same class in a tighter footprint. Need Y-axis, sub-spindle, or more capacity headroom? The BML-600 family carries a Φ600 swing, a 10-inch chuck path, and the full configuration ladder (see: Box Way vs Linear Way).

Q: What is the maximum machining length of the BML-560M?

A: 570 mm with the standard 8-inch chuck, within a Φ560 mm swing and Φ320 mm maximum machining diameter.

Q: When should I choose the BML-560M over the BML-560S?

A: When parts exceed the 560S's 320 mm envelope. The 560M extends machining length to 570 mm with the same chuck class and spindle.

Q: BML-560M or BML-600S: which 8-inch box way machine fits better?

A: They cover a similar envelope (570 versus 560 mm). The 560M is the compact-swing choice; the 600S carries a larger Φ600 swing and Φ420 machining diameter, and belongs to the family where Y-axis and sub-spindle configurations are available if your parts evolve.
