The DMG MORI CTX Beta 500 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision universal turning machine designed for complex and efficient machining. It features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 16.1 inches and turning length of 21.7 inches, supporting a 15.7-inch chuck and up to 26-inch bar diameter. The main spindle operates at up to 6,000 RPM with 46.9 HP, while the sub spindle also runs at 6,000 RPM with 26.8 HP, enabling simultaneous machining. The machine is equipped with a turret-type primary tool carrier supporting up to 12 turning and 12 rotary tools, with rotary tool power of 15.2 HP at 4,000 RPM. It offers three axes (X, Y, Z) with travels of 11.8", 21.7" (Z), and rapid traverses up to 1,181 IPM for all axes, delivering high speed and dynamic motion. The machine incorporates liquid-cooled spindles for thermal stability and high precision (<10 µm tolerance), an integrated C-axis with 0.001° resolution, and a high-precision turret designed for long-term accuracy and rigidity. Its modular construction supports full turning, rotary, and milling capabilities with driven tools. The system supports complete machining, including counter-spindle operation for reverse and simultaneous machining. Its robust design and advanced cooling provide stable operation for complex components with tolerances below the micrometer range.
