How much does the Hurco HBMx80i cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc boring machine in this class — not a quote from Hurco. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Hurco HBMx80i is a boring mill sized between the HBMx55i and the HBMx120i: 2,000 x 1,780 x 1,650 mm (78.74 x 70.08 x 64.96 in) of X, Y and Z travel, a 500 mm (19.7 in) W axis and a 1,440 x 1,600 mm (56.69 x 62.99 in) table that rotates 360° on B and carries 6,300 kg (13,889 lb). It uses the family's CAT 50 spindle: 2,500 rpm, 30 kW (40.2 hp), 1,500 Nm (1,106.3 ft-lb).
Against the HBMx55i, every structural figure grows while the spindle stays the same. The HBMx55i has 1,400 x 1,390 x 1,100 mm (55.12 x 54.72 x 43.31 in) of travel, a 1,120 x 1,250 mm (44.09 x 49.21 in) table and a 4,000 kg (8,819 lb) rating. On the HBMx80i the Y and Z travels of 1,780 mm and 1,650 mm are the bigger change: a tall part, or a part set up on an angle plate or riser, can be reached top to bottom and from front to back. The 400 mm (15.7 in) maximum tool length, against 300 mm (11.8 in) on the HBMx55i, follows the same logic of reaching deeper into large castings.
The HBMx120i shares this machine's Y and Z travels, table and 6,300 kg (13,889 lb) rating, and stretches X to 3,000 mm (118.11 in). If the parts fit within 2,000 mm (78.74 in) of X, the HBMx80i covers the same work on a lighter machine than the HBMx120i, 23,500 kg against 25,500 kg.
With 1,500 Nm (1,106.3 ft-lb) at low speed, the spindle is set up for large boring bars, face mills and drills in steel and cast iron, not for small tools. The 60-tool magazine takes tools up to 400 mm (15.7 in) long and 25 kg (55.1 lb), with a 15 sec tool-to-tool time that matters little on long boring cycles. Control is Hurco's WinMax, offering conversational and NC programming.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,780 mm (70.08 in) of Y and 1,650 mm (64.96 in) of Z for tall, deep workpieces
- 1,440 x 1,600 mm (56.69 x 62.99 in) table indexing 360° on B, rated for 6,300 kg (13,889 lb)
- CAT 50 spindle with 1,500 Nm (1,106.3 ft-lb) and 30 kW (40.2 hp)
- Tools up to 400 mm (15.7 in) long, against 300 mm (11.8 in) on the HBMx55i
- 500 mm (19.7 in) W axis for added reach along the spindle line
Limitations
- Top speed of 2,500 rpm rules out small-tool and high-speed work
- Tool-to-tool time of 15 sec is slow for jobs with many short operations
- Machine weight of 23,500 kg needs a foundation and rigging plan
- X travel of 2,000 mm (78.74 in) is shorter than the 3,000 mm (118.11 in) of the HBMx120i for long parts
