BURKHARDT+WEBER MCX 1200 TT HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The BURKHARDT+WEBER MCX 1200 TT is a precision horizontal machining center engineered for high-performance production work. This 5-axis system features a rotary CNC tilt table that enables simultaneous 5-axis machining with a wide A-axis swivel range of 165 degrees and endless B-axis rotation, allowing access to all necessary 3-D positions for complex contour finishing operations. The machine delivers substantial work envelope dimensions with X-axis travel of 110.24 inches, Y-axis travel of 70.866 inches, and Z-axis travel of 70.866 inches, accommodating large workpieces up to 7,000 kg. Powered by a 49.6 hp spindle motor operating at maximum 5,500 RPM, the machine utilizes HSK 100 spindle taper compatibility for rapid tool changes via an automated 120-position tool changer, ensuring minimal downtime during production runs. The system features 1,600 x 1,400 mm pallet dimensions with 4-pallet capacity and continuous table rotation for efficient parallel part handling and integration into manufacturing cells. Equipped with a Siemens 840D CNC control system, the MCX 1200 TT delivers exceptional thermal stability and positioning accuracy characteristic of Burkhardt+Weber's precision engineering. The horizontal spindle arrangement includes optional chip disposal and ergonomic work area access. Rapid traverse rates reach 45 meters per minute, maximizing productivity in high-volume machining applications requiring superior rigidity and dynamic axis motion performance.
