This WMW BFT 80 2 is a used boring mill — sometimes referred to as a horizontal boring machine — currently located in Belgium. Boring mills of this type are precision metalworking machines designed to bore, drill, mill, and finish large or complex workpieces with high accuracy, making them a staple in heavy engineering, toolmaking, and general machining workshops. WMW, the German abbreviation for Werkzeugmaschinenwerk, was a major East German machine tool manufacturing group responsible for a wide range of precision metalworking equipment that was widely exported and is still found in industrial workshops across Europe.
This machine is equipped with a universal milling head, broadening its capability beyond straight boring to include angular and milling operations. The spindle has a diameter of 80 mm and accepts ISO 50 tooling, a widely used taper standard that ensures compatibility with a broad range of cutting tools and boring bars. Maximum spindle speed is rated at 1,250 rpm, and the principal drive motor delivers 8.5 kW of power.
The work envelope is generous. The table measures 1,100 × 1,000 mm and provides 1,000 mm of longitudinal travel on the X-axis. Cross travel between the table and column on the Y-axis also extends to 1,000 mm, while the vertical height travel of the head on the Z-axis reaches 1,600 mm. The spindle itself offers a maximum quill travel of 700 mm, allowing deep boring operations without repositioning the workpiece. Together these travels describe a substantial machining envelope suited to large, heavy components.
