How much does the Hartford MCW-10650 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford MCW-10650 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
A fixed table of 10,000 x 5,000 mm (393.7 x 196.9 in), 10,000 mm (393.7 in) of X travel and 6,500 mm (255.9 in) of Y: the Hartford MCW-10650 is the ten-metre model of the wide MCW cross section.
Machines of this size are rarely bought for top-face milling alone, and Hartford's description of the MCW gives a lot of space to heads. It can operate with an auto universal head, a 90 degree head and an extension head. A full automatic head changer is provided with a protective cover and an independent head magazine, a hydraulic cylinder makes the changeover fast, and each magazine has its own moving door that opens only during a head change to keep debris off the heads. Additional head magazines are available.
Angular positioning is in steps: Hartford gives A/C axis indexing of 1 degree for its automatic angular head options. That is indexing, suited to machining on inclined and side planes, and it should not be read as continuous five-axis contouring.
The machine otherwise follows the series table. Z travel is 1,000 mm with 1,200 and 1,400 mm options, W travel 1,800 mm or 2,100 mm, table load 3,000 kg/m², and the #50 spindle runs up to 8,000 rpm as a gear head or 10,000 rpm as a hybrid.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
An auto universal head, a 90 degree head and an extension head, according to Hartford. The automatic head changer has a protective cover and an independent head magazine, and additional head magazines are available.
02
Hartford describes automatic angular head options with A/C axis indexing of 1 degree. That gives positioned machining at set angles. Hartford's page for the MCW does not describe simultaneous five-axis contouring.
03
Table 10,000 x 5,000 mm (393.7 x 196.9 in), X travel 10,000 mm, Y travel 6,500 mm (255.9 in), Z travel 1,000 mm (1,200 or 1,400 mm optional), W travel 1,800 mm (2,100 mm optional).
04
The MCW-10550 has a 10,000 x 4,000 mm (393.7 x 157.5 in) table and 5,500 mm (216.5 in) of Y travel. The MCW-10650 is a metre wider in both table and Y travel, with everything else unchanged.
