Juaristi MX vs Juaristi TS3
Juaristi vs Juaristi · CNC Boring Machines
Summary
The Juaristi MX and the Juaristi TS3 are both Juaristi boring and milling machines, but they serve different jobs. The MX is a large configurable machine with 4,000 - 10,000+ mm (157.5 - 393.7+ in) of X travel, 2,500 mm of Y and 2,000 mm of Z. The TS3 is a medium-size horizontal boring mill with 2,000 x 1,600 x 1,250 mm of travel.
The MX has 45 - 60 kW (60 - 80 hp) at the spindle against 30 kW (40 hp) continuous, and weighs 50,000 - 80,000 kg depending on configuration against 25,000 kg approx. The TS3 spins faster, 3,500 rpm against 2,500 rpm. Both list 0.008 mm positioning accuracy and 0.005 mm repeatability, and both offer Heidenhain TNC 640 or Siemens 840D SL controls.

Advantages
Juaristi MX
- 4,000 - 10,000+ mm (157.5 - 393.7+ in) configurable X travel against 2,000 mm (78.7 in)
- 2,500 mm (98.4 in) Y and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) Z travel against 1,600 mm and 1,250 mm
- 45 - 60 kW (60 - 80 hp) spindle against 30 kW (40 hp) continuous
Juaristi TS3
- 3,500 rpm spindle against 2,500 rpm
- 25,000 kg (55,116 lb) approx. machine against 50,000 - 80,000 kg
- Sized for medium mold bases, gearbox housings and machine castings
Verdict
These machines do different jobs. The Juaristi MX is for very large work, such as turbine casings, marine engine blocks, wind nacelle frames and mining truck frames, where X travel from 4,000 mm upward and 45 - 60 kW are required. The Juaristi TS3 suits mold bases, gearbox housings, pump bodies and machine castings that fit 2,000 x 1,600 x 1,250 mm of travel, with a faster 3,500 rpm spindle and the same listed accuracy.
