About Milltronics
Milltronics was founded in 1973 in Richfield, Minnesota by Gary Welch, an electrical engineer from Control Data Corporation, originally operating as Industrial Information Controls (IIC) and developing microprocessor-based controls for machine tools. The company evolved into a full machine tool builder under the Milltronics Manufacturing name, relocating over the years through Eden Prairie and Waconia, Minnesota before settling at its current home in Indianapolis, Indiana as part of the Hurco Companies Machine Tool Group.
The VM Series of vertical machining centers is the cornerstone of the Milltronics product line, encompassing a wide range of travels and configurations to suit both toolroom and production work. The VM17 is a compact, versatile vertical machining center with 30-inch X-axis travel, a CAT-40 spindle, and automatic tool changers in the 16-to-20-station range, running Milltronics Centurion or 9000-series controls. The VM30 is a large-travel machine offering 60-inch X-axis travel, 30-inch Y-axis travel, a 24-HP spindle, and a 24-station tool changer, built on oversized castings with massive ribbing for maximum rigidity and dampening. Beyond the VM Series, Milltronics also produces bridge mills, bed mills, knee mills, turning centers, combination lathes, and slant-bed CNC lathes, all featuring the company's proprietary Inspire and Inspire+ controls that support both conversational programming and standard G and M code.
Milltronics machines serve a broad cross-section of precision manufacturing industries, including aerospace, automotive, tool and die, mold making, and general job shop production. Their combination of toolroom flexibility and production-grade rigidity makes them a practical choice for contract manufacturers, defense suppliers, and medical component shops that need machines capable of running a wide variety of part geometries and materials.
Buyers seeking used Milltronics vertical machining centers and CNC mills on the secondary market are drawn to the brand's reputation for heavy, well-built castings that hold tolerance over long service lives. The proprietary Centurion, 8200, and 9000-series controls have a large installed base, making trained operators and support resources easy to find. Milltronics backs its machines with a full life-cycle parts program, stocking thousands of components and offering rapid delivery through its global supply network, which means even older VM17 and VM30 machines remain practical to maintain and support.
