Highlights

Backlash-free motion

Linear motors deliver backlash-free positioning with high dynamic response, minimizing vibration and mechanical play for ultrafine surface finishes and contour accuracy down to the micron level.

Thermal stability

A symmetrical bridge-type structure combined with a fully internal active cooling system prevents thermal drift in all directions, ensuring consistent accuracy throughout long micromachining cycles.

Ergonomic design

A pivoting control console, easy access to the tool changer, and excellent visibility of the working area support efficient daily operations, reducing setup time and keeping operators focused on value-added tasks.

Automation ready

Compatible with the Delphin pallet system and tool magazines up to 60 positions, the MILL P 500 VHP is designed for lights-out production, with full front access for the operator and automation integrated from the back.

Intelligent active cooling system

The MIKRON MILL P 500 VHP’s active internal cooling system (Ambient Robust technology) circulates temperature-controlled fluid, ensuring precise thermal management. This enables consistent accuracy and stability throughout long micromachining cycles.

The MIKRON MILL P 500 VHP features thermal insulation housing that isolates it from external temperature fluctuations, ensuring optimal thermal stability and consistent precision during operation.

Dynamic motion

Equipped with high-performance linear motors, the MILL P 500 VHP delivers backlash-free motion with a travel speed of 30 m/min and an acceleration of 5 m/s², combining the dynamics needed for short cycle times with the accuracy required for the most demanding micromachining applications.

High-quality Spindle

The MILL P 500 VHP is equipped with a high-speed STEP TEC spindle at 42,000 min⁻¹ with HSK-E40 interface, specifically engineered for ultraprecise micromachining. Advanced thermal design and premium components ensure stable, vibration-free operation at high speeds, delivering mirror surface finishes and repeatable accuracy across every cycle and every material.
