BURKHARDT+WEBER MCR 1400 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Burkhardt+Weber MCR 1400 is a robust horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty manufacturing applications. It features a large 62.99" x 62.99" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 26,400 lbs, enabling machining of large and heavy components. The horizontal spindle utilizes an HSK-A 100 taper, delivering a top speed of 5,500 RPM with an optional upgrade to 10,000 RPM and rated at 49.3 horsepower (30-minute rating), suitable for high-torque, precision cutting. Tool handling is highly efficient with an automatic tool changer (ATC) capable of holding 120 tools, expandable up to 570 tools, and an 18-second chip-to-chip tool change cycle. Pallet changers are optional, supporting 2 pallets standard or up to 8 pallets for increased automation and throughput. The machine offers three-axis linear travel capabilities with X-axis travel up to 125.98" (optionally 137.8"), Y-axis up to 70.87" (optionally 86.61"), and Z-axis up to 70.87" (optionally 82.68"), all with rapid traverse rates of 1,179 inches per minute, enabling fast, flexible machining operations. Additionally, a fully rotary B-axis capable of 360 degrees enhances part geometry versatility. This configuration supports complex, large-scale machining tasks with rigidity, precision, and high productivity, making the MCR 1400 ideal for heavy industrial use in sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and large-scale metal fabrication.
