Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from Hurco. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Hurco HTX 300i is a compact horizontal machining center built around 300 × 300 mm pallets, a 2-pallet automatic changer and 560 mm of travel on each of X, Y and Z. Its listed spindle is a 12,000 rpm BIG-PLUS CAT 40 unit with a 15 kW motor. The model does not appear in Hurco's current lineup, and the listed figures could not be checked against a manufacturer table, so confirm each one on the actual machine.
The pallet changer is what defines a machine like this. One pallet is loaded while the other is cutting, so spindle time is not lost to fixturing, and the small 300 × 300 mm pallet keeps the machine suited to small prismatic parts run in batches. A B-axis rotary table listed as 360° full CNC with 0.001° resolution lets several faces be machined in one clamping.
The 12,000 rpm CAT 40 spindle points to aluminium and general steel work with small and medium tools rather than heavy roughing. The 40-tool arm-type magazine holds enough tools for a family of parts to stay loaded, and rapids are listed at 40 m/min on all three axes. Plan for about 7,500 kg of machine on a floor space of roughly 3,200 × 3,500 mm. The control is Hurco WinMax, with conversational programming as well as NC.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 2-pallet automatic changer on 300 × 300 mm pallets, so loading happens during the cut
- Full CNC B axis listed at 0.001° resolution for multi-face work in one clamping
- 12,000 rpm BIG-PLUS CAT 40 spindle with a 15 kW motor
- 40-tool arm-type magazine and 40 m/min rapids on X, Y and Z
Limitations
- The figures could not be checked against a current manufacturer table and should be confirmed on the machine
- 300 × 300 mm pallets limit part and fixture size
- A 15 kW CAT 40 spindle is not built for heavy roughing in steel

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed travel is 560 mm on each of X, Y and Z, with 300 × 300 mm pallets on a 2-pallet automatic changer. The B axis is listed as a 360° full CNC rotary table with 0.001° resolution.
02
The listed spindle runs to 12,000 rpm with a 15 kW motor and a BIG-PLUS CAT 40 taper. The arm-type tool changer holds 40 tools. These figures are not confirmed by a current manufacturer page, so check the spindle plate on the machine.
03
The listed weight is approximately 7,500 kg and the floor space approximately 3,200 × 3,500 mm. Treat both as planning figures and measure the actual machine and its pallet changer clearance before arranging rigging.
04
It is not in Hurco's current lineup. Anyone considering one should verify the travels, spindle and pallet changer on the machine itself, since the listed figures have not been checked against a manufacturer table.
