How much does the Huron MX 16 MT cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Huron MX 16 MT 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
The Huron MX 16 MT is a mill-turn centre for parts up to 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), with a 1,650 mm table that turns at 250 rpm inside a 2,300 x 2,300 x 1,250 mm (90.6 x 90.6 x 49.2 in) working volume.
Those travels are far larger than the table. A 2,300 mm stroke in X and Y over a 1,650 mm table means the universal head can stand well clear of the rim, turn an outside diameter with the spindle horizontal, and still swing in over the centre for boring and facing. On smaller mill-turn machines the travels barely exceed the table and such access has to be planned around.
At 250 rpm the table matches the MX 12 MT for speed while carrying 5,000 kg against 3,000 kg. The spindle is common to the big MX machines: HSK 100-A, 43 kW, 415 Nm, 10,000 rpm. Tool weight goes up to 30 kg.
One limit is diameter. Huron's table gives 120 mm as the maximum tool diameter for the MX 16, where the MX 12 MT lists 250 mm. Buyers planning large face mills or special turning heads should raise this with Huron. Tool length is 650 mm and the magazine has 60 housings. Positioning is 0.007 mm on the linear axes. Rapids are 40 m/min.
