How much does the Emco Hyperturn 45 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Emco Hyperturn 45 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
Two spindles and two turrets cutting at once: the Emco Hyperturn 45 is a production turn-mill centre for bar listed as 45 (51) mm. Each spindle is rated 7,000 rpm, 15 kW (20.1 hp) and 100 Nm (73.8 lb-ft), and each of the two 12-station VDI 25 turrets can drive every one of its tools.
The second turret is the reason to choose this machine over a single-turret twin-spindle lathe. While the upper turret works on the main spindle, the lower one can be busy at the counter spindle, or both can cut the same part for balanced turning. Cycle time falls because operations overlap instead of queuing. The price of that is programming effort, since two channels have to be synchronised.
Each turret drives its tools at up to 6,000 rpm with 4 kW (5.4 hp) and 16 Nm (11.8 lb-ft). A Y axis with 70 mm (2.8 in) of travel is part of the machine. Z travel is 510 mm (20.1 in), the X row reads 160 (150) mm, and the maximum turning diameter is 300 mm (11.8 in). Rapids are listed as 30/15/45 m/min for X, Y and Z, quick enough that tool-to-tool moves are a small part of the cycle.
Emco offers its bar loader, swing loader or gantry loader. Controls are Siemens or Fanuc; the Fanuc 31iB is named with a 15-inch colour monitor, and EMCONNECT is tied to the Sinumerik ONE. The product page states no weight or dimensions for this model.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Two spindles of equal rating: 7,000 rpm, 15 kW (20.1 hp), 100 Nm (73.8 lb-ft) each
- Two 12-station VDI 25 turrets, with driven tools on both
- Rapids of 30/15/45 m/min in X/Y/Z
- Y axis with 70 mm (2.8 in) of travel
- Bar loader, swing loader or gantry loader from Emco
Limitations
- Driven tools are rated 4 kW (5.4 hp) and 16 Nm (11.8 lb-ft), light for heavy milling
- Bar passage is 45 (51) mm; the Hyperturn 50 and larger models take bigger stock
- The product table lists no machine weight or footprint
- Two-turret programs need synchronising, which adds setup time on short runs

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Two, each with 12 VDI 25 stations, and Emco lists driven tools on both turrets. Each turret drive is rated 6,000 rpm, 4 kW (5.4 hp) and 16 Nm (11.8 lb-ft).
02
Main and counter spindle are listed identically: 7,000 rpm, 15 kW (20.1 hp) and 100 Nm (73.8 lb-ft). Equal spindles let the work be divided freely between first and second operation.
03
Bar of 45 (51) mm, turning diameters up to 300 mm (11.8 in) and a Z travel of 510 mm (20.1 in). Swing over the bed is 430 mm (16.9 in), and the Y axis travels 70 mm (2.8 in).
04
The spindles are the same class, 15 kW (20.1 hp) each on both machines. The Maxxturn 45 G2 has one turret, so its spindles are served in turn. The Hyperturn 45 has two turrets and can cut on both spindles at once.
