FAQ
KV-1100 Questions
Answers to common questions about the KV-1100.
A standard reinforced shop floor rated for the machine's 9,200 kg weight is sufficient for most sites; our install team reviews your floor plan and access route during the site survey before delivery.
Yes — the BT50 spindle is set up for heavy metal removal, and the same ±0.006 mm positioning accuracy carries through to finish passes, so many customers do both on this one machine.
Typically 12-16 weeks build-to-order given the larger casting and BT50 spindle package; we'll confirm your exact ship date once the quote is finalized.
Yes, Tollaston's Vaughan parts warehouse carries common BT50 holders and can special-order less common tooling with next-day availability from our suppliers.

KV-800
The KV-800 is the machine most Tollaston customers land on once they outgrow a job-shop mill and need a platform that can run unattended for a full shift. An 800 mm X-travel, a 700 kg table load rating and a 15 kW BT40 spindle (HSK-A63 optional) give it the muscle for steel and stainless production work, while a 30-station changer keeps complex parts moving without operator intervention. We run every KV-800 through a documented time study on your actual part in our Vaughan Tech Centre before it ships, so the cycle time you're quoted is the cycle time you get on your shop floor, not a catalogue number. It is our flagship recommendation for shops scaling from prototype into repeatable production.

KV-560
The KV-560 is Kaizora's entry point into production-grade vertical machining, built for job shops and toolrooms that need to move between parts quickly without giving up rigidity. A BT40 direct-drive spindle, box-way construction on all three axes, and a 24-station arm-type changer keep cycle times tight on aluminum, steel and stainless alike. Tollaston's applications engineers set up the majority of first-time CNC buyers on this platform because the Kaizora Nexa 5 control's conversational programming shortens the learning curve without limiting what an experienced programmer can do with it later. It is the machine we recommend when the floor space and the budget are both tight but the part mix is not.
