MURATA (MURATEC) MT12 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The MURATA MT12 is a high-performance horizontal machining center featuring twin opposing main spindles, each capable of turning a maximum diameter of 8.270" and a turning length of 7.000", with a maximum swing of 9.800" and a maximum bar diameter of 1.770". Both spindles operate at speeds up to 4,500 RPM and are powered by 15 HP motors, enabling simultaneous dual-spindle machining for enhanced productivity. The machine is equipped with two motorized turrets, each holding up to 15 tools for turning and rotary operations, featuring rotary tools rated at 3.8 HP and up to 4,000 RPM. This configuration supports two simultaneous cutting tools for complex part machining. The MT12 operates on four axes with travel capacities of 7.870" in X, 25.600" in Z, and a rapid traverse rate of 945 inches per minute on X, Y, and Z axes. It is designed for complex, high-precision manufacturing of parts such as pumps, valves, and surgical components, leveraging its high tool capacity, live tooling, and synchronized twin spindles to reduce cycle times. The machine utilizes a CNC Fanuc control system and supports both bar work and chuck work, making it highly versatile in automated production environments. Its robust design and high-speed capabilities contribute to efficient, low-cost manufacturing solutions in demanding industries.
