ACRA MT-34 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The ACRA MT-34 is a compact CNC lathe engineered for precision turning operations on smaller workpieces. This 2-axis machine features a maximum spindle speed of 5,000 RPM with 7.40 HP output, accommodating workpieces up to 7.1 inches in turning diameter and 8 inches in length. The 14.2-inch swing over bed and 5-inch chuck diameter enable machining of medium-sized components, while the 1.34-inch maximum bar diameter capacity supports automatic feeding of bar stock material. Equipped with a slide-type primary tool carrier, the MT-34 positions a single cutting tool for simultaneous operations, optimizing efficiency in repetitive production runs. The machine delivers substantial rapid traverse rates of 472 inches per minute across all axes, minimizing non-cutting cycle time. X-axis travel extends 11.8 inches, providing adequate lateral workpiece positioning, while the 7.87-inch Z-axis travel (longitudinal) allows sufficient part length access. This configuration makes the MT-34 particularly effective for producing components requiring multiple diameter steps, threading, and facing operations in a single setup. The CNC control system integrated into the MT-34 streamlines program execution and repeatability. Its 2-axis design simplifies operation while maintaining the precision necessary for quality production. The machine's robust spindle power and rapid traverse capabilities balance productivity with accuracy, positioning it as a reliable solution for job shops and manufacturing facilities focused on smaller turned parts production. Though no longer in current production, the MT-34 remains valued in used equipment markets for its durability and straightforward programming interface.
