HURCO COMPANIES TMX8MYI HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Hurco Companies TMX8MYi is a true slant-bed CNC turning center featuring advanced multi-axis capabilities for complex mill-turn operations. This horizontal machine is equipped with a single main spindle capable of 4,500 RPM with 37.3 horsepower and a maximum swing of 20 inches, accommodating workpieces up to 10.9 inches in turning diameter and 20.7 inches in length. The 8-inch chuck accepts bar stock up to 2.6 inches in diameter. The machine utilizes all-digital drives and motors with absolute encoders on all linear axes, ensuring precision and repeatability. The 4-axis configuration includes X, Y, and Z linear axes with rapid traverse rates of 945 inches per minute, plus a rotary C-axis for off-center machining operations. The Y-axis travel of 4.4 inches enables pocket machining with straight walls and flat bottoms. The primary BMT65 turret accommodates up to 12 turning tools, while the secondary DIN1809 tool carrier supports 12 additional rotary tools at 4,000 RPM with 8.5 horsepower. The machine features simultaneous secondary mill/drill functionality both on-center and off-center, with full C-axis and Y-axis integration for enhanced machining flexibility. Tool indexing is rapid, with 0.3-second adjacent and 0.8-second furthest positioning times. This configuration makes the TMX8MYi ideal for producing complex turned and milled components in a single setup, reducing secondary operations and improving productivity.
