HX8610 Vertical Machining Center

You can have it all with our HX8610 Vertical Machining Center (VMC). It’s incredibly versatile and provides full CNC capabilities. Anyone of any skill level can use the PC-based machine. You can effortlessly house it in your classroom, garage or office. It can easily machine plastics, woods, metals, and many more. It leaves a small footprint. And, maybe most importantly, it’s affordable enough for anyone to own––whether you’re working directly in the industry, educating the next generation of machinists or even are just a hobbyist, looking for a way to spend your free time.

Our HX8610 VMC operates on standard 120v power, meaning you don’t need any phase converters or room modifications. The HX8610 VMC features two spindle options – the 9,000 RPM [R8-Taper] and 25,000 RPM High-Speed [HS] spindle, both paired with a 1-1/4 HP motor that enables you to efficiently tailor your machine for heavy-duty cutting and fine surface finishes.

If you purchase the HX8610 VMC, your machine will come equipped with 3-axis stepper motors, precision ACME lead screws with bronze nuts, USB-based motion control and vivid LED work lighting. Additionally, you will have the support from the Leading Edge team, guiding you as you learn to operate your machine and answering any questions along the way.
