Hurco vs Hurco · Mill-Turn Machines
Summary
The Hurco TMX10MYi and Hurco TMX10MYSi are the same 10-inch class Y-axis mill-turn machine with one key difference: the TMX10MYSi adds a sub-spindle. Both offer 304.8 mm (12 in) of X travel, 55 mm (2.17 in) of Y, 670 mm (26.38 in) of Z, a 315 mm (12.4 in) turning diameter, 627 mm (24.68 in) turning length, 78 mm (3.07 in) bar, a 3,500 rpm spindle with 28 kW (37.6 hp) and 267.4 Nm (197 ft-lb), 12 tools and 24 m/min rapids.
The TMX10MYi lists X, Z, Y, W and C axes and 854 mm (33.6 in) between centers against 825 mm (32.5 in). The TMX10MYSi lists X, Z, Y, Z2, C1 and C2 axes for machining the back of the part, and weighs 7,700 kg (16,976 lb) against 7,250 kg (15,984 lb).

Advantages
Hurco TMX10MYi
- 854 mm (33.6 in) between centers against 825 mm (32.5 in)
- Lighter machine at 7,250 kg (15,984 lb) against 7,700 kg (16,976 lb)
Hurco TMX10MYSi
- Sub-spindle with Z2, C1 and C2 axes for both-end machining in one cycle
- Finishes parts complete from bar without manual flipping or a second setup
Verdict
The deciding question is whether parts need work on both ends. The Hurco TMX10MYSi suits bar-fed production of connectors, fittings, valves, implants and aerospace parts that must be machined front and back, unattended. The Hurco TMX10MYi suits fittings, flanges and valve bodies machined from one side, plus longer work that uses its slightly greater 854 mm between centers.
