3-axis vertical machining centre

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.

Ideal For

  • Job shops running mixed small-to-mid part families
  • Shops with a tight machine footprint
  • First-time CNC buyers who want room to grow into 4th-axis work
  • Toolroom and prototype departments

FAQ

KV-560 Questions

Answers to common questions about the KV-560.

Stocked units ship from Vaughan in 2-4 weeks; a build-to-order unit with options typically runs 10-12 weeks. Our applications engineers confirm your exact date at quote stage.

208-230V or 460V three-phase depending on your configuration, roughly 20 kVA, plus clean shop air at 90 psi for the tool changer and doors. Our install team confirms exact draw from your machine's nameplate before delivery.

Yes. Every KV-560 includes on-site operator and programming training at installation, and our Vaughan Tech Centre runs Kaizora Nexa 5 control classes throughout the year for new hires.

The KV-560 ships with a standard BT40 tool holder starter kit and a rigid tapping/probing software package. We quote a full tooling package matched to your first parts during the sales process.

KV-800

3-axis vertical machining centre

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-1100

3-axis vertical machining centre

KV-1100

The KV-1100 is the machine Tollaston quotes when a customer's part, or their fixture, has outgrown a standard 40-taper mill. A 1,300 x 600 mm table rated to 1,200 kg, 1,100 mm of X-travel and a 22 kW BT50 spindle turning 220 Nm of torque let it hog heavy steel and cast-iron sections that would stall a smaller machine. Despite the size, it holds the same ±0.006 mm positioning accuracy buyers expect from the KV line, and the 40-station magazine keeps complex, multi-operation parts running without a manual changeover. We install the KV-1100 most often for die/mold shops and heavy-industrial contract manufacturers who need one machine to do the roughing and the finishing.
