Juaristi TH3-MGX8

Q: How much does the Juaristi TH3-MGX8 cost?

The price estimate for the Juaristi TH3-MGX8 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/juaristi-th3-mgx8#price; the request is passed to Juaristi or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Juaristi TH3-MGX8 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 Juaristi TH3-MGX8 is the smaller of the two TH-series 5-axis universal machining centers: a table-type machine with a central head, a rotary table rated at 8,000 kg (17,637 lb) and X travel offered at 2,000, 3,000 or 4,000 mm. Y and Z each come in three steps, 1,500, 2,000 or 2,500 mm.

Juaristi lists two head arrangements in the table. One is a 45º automatic bi-rotative head that indexes in 1º steps or in 0.001º steps; the other is a continuous-rotation 5-axis head with a range of +105/ -120º. Head power is given as 37 / 46 kW and spindle speed as 6,000-9,000-18,000 min-1, three figures without a note on which head or drive each belongs to. Ask for that pairing in writing, because a job that needs 18,000 min-1 and a job that needs full power at low speed may point to different heads.

What sets the TH3-MGX8 apart from a plain travelling-column mill is pace. Rapid traverse is 40 m/min on X, Y and Z, and the maker quotes 3 m/s2 acceleration. The table turns at 5-8 min-1, which is positioning and contouring speed. Juaristi describes the series as built for milling, boring and turning with automatic head changes, yet the table lists no turning speed, so turning capacity has to be specified separately.

Tooling is BT-50 or HSK-A100. Tool magazines are a chain type with up to 160 positions, or matrix and robot types with up to 400. The enclosure is closed, with a chip conveyor, and automatic pallet change with an FMS system is offered.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Rapid traverse of 40 m/min on X, Y and Z with 3 m/s2 acceleration, quick for a machine with up to 4,000 mm of X travel
Two head arrangements in the table: a 45º bi-rotative head indexing to 0.001º and a continuous 5-axis head with +105/ -120º of rotation
Spindle speeds listed up to 18,000 min-1, with head power of 37 / 46 kW
Rotary table rated at 8,000 kg (17,637 lb), in sizes from 1,250×1,250 mm to 1,600×2,000 mm
Tool magazines of up to 160 positions (chain) or up to 400 (matrix or robot), with BT-50 or HSK-A100 tooling

Limitations

The table does not say which head or drive delivers each of the 6,000-9,000-18,000 min-1 speeds or the 37 / 46 kW power figures
Table load stops at 8,000 kg; heavier parts need the TH5-MGX12, which is rated at 12,000 kg
No spindle torque, tool size limits, accuracy or machine weight are published in the table
Table rotation of 5-8 min-1 is a positioning speed; turning capacity is not quantified on the page

Best For

5-sided and 5-axis machining of prismatic parts up to 8,000 kg Mould and die work that needs up to 18,000 min-1 Pallet-changed production cells with an FMS system Housings and frames within 4,000 mm of X travel

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What travels does the TH3-MGX8 offer?

X is offered at 2,000, 3,000 or 4,000 mm (78.7-118.1-157.5 in). Y and Z are each available at 1,500, 2,000 or 2,500 mm. The table does not tie particular Y and Z steps to particular X lengths, so the combination is part of the quotation.

02 How much can the TH3-MGX8 table carry?

The load capacity is 8,000 kg (17,637 lb). Rotary table dimensions run from 1,250×1,250 mm to 1,600×2,000 mm, and the table rotates at 5-8 min-1. The TH5-MGX12 raises the load to 12,000 kg if the part is heavier.

03 Which heads are available on the TH3-MGX8?

The specification table lists a 45º automatic bi-rotative head with 1º or 0.001º indexing and a continuous-rotation 5-axis head covering +105/ -120º. Juaristi also states that the series is compatible with a boring bar and a fixed horizontal spindle, and that heads for turning, milling and boring can be changed automatically.

04 What tooling and tool magazine does the TH3-MGX8 use?

Juaristi lists BT-50 or HSK-A100 tool cones. The automatic tool changer is a chain type with up to 160 positions, or a matrix or robot type with up to 400. Which magazine is fitted is a configuration choice, so confirm it along with the maximum tool size, which the page does not give.
