Hurco Companies BX40UI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a 13.7" x 13.7" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 551 lbs, designed for precision and durability. It includes a 5-axis configuration (standard or optional) with X, Y, and Z travels of 37.4", 21.6", and 19.7" respectively, all capable of rapid traverse rates up to 1,417 ipm and feed rates up to 1,535 ipm, offering high-speed, efficient machining. The spindle is vertically oriented with an HSK 63A taper, delivering up to 18,000 RPM and a 47 HP (30-minute rating) motor, suitable for moderate to heavy cutting applications. The tool carrier supports 30 HSK 63A tooling positions, enabling extensive tool variety but lacks a pallet changer. Optional support for rotary and index tables enhances versatility in complex machining operations. The machine’s design prioritizes stability and precision, with the HSK 63A taper known for reliable torque transmission and high repeatability, suitable for both heavy and precise milling tasks. This configuration supports multi-axis machining with high accuracy and productivity for aerospace, automotive, mold, and general industrial applications, balancing speed, power, and tool capacity in a compact footprint.
