Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Matsuura. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Matsuura MX-330 is a compact 5-axis machining center with 435 mm (17.1 in) of X, 465 mm (18.3 in) of Y and 560 mm (22.1 in) of Z travel and a 15,000 rpm BT40 spindle as standard. Two workpiece sizes are listed: Ø 330 × H 320 mm (Ø 12.99 × H 12.59 in) and Ø 420 × H 320 mm (Ø 16.53 × H 12.59 in). The MX-330 PC10 page marks the larger size as applying with conditions, so treat Ø 330 mm as the everyday limit and confirm anything bigger.

Spindle options are a 15,000 rpm Power-Up BT40 and a 20,000 rpm BT40. The taper row lists CAT #40 or BT40 as standard, with HSK-A63 optional, so existing holders of either standard can be used. Rapid traverse is 40 m/min (1,574.80 ipm), and the control runs Matsuura's MiOS 4 operating system.

The standard magazine is small, 30 tools, with 60 and 90 as options. That decides how the machine fits a shop: 30 tools cover a few part numbers, but anyone planning to keep many jobs set up should order the larger magazine from the start. The MX-330 PC10 starts at 60 tools and adds a 10-pallet system, which makes it the version for unattended runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the largest part the MX-330 takes?

Two sizes are listed: Ø 330 × H 320 mm (Ø 12.99 × H 12.59 in) and Ø 420 × H 320 mm (Ø 16.53 × H 12.59 in). The MX-330 PC10 page marks the Ø 420 mm size as applying with conditions, so confirm a part of that diameter with Matsuura before relying on it.

02 How many tools does the MX-330 hold?

30 as standard, on BT40, with 60 and 90 as options. For work that keeps many jobs set up at once, the larger magazines are worth specifying from the start; the MX-330 PC10 starts at 60 tools.

03 What is the difference between the MX-330 and the MX-330 PC10?

The travels and spindle options are the same. The MX-330 PC10 adds a 10-pallet system rated at 60 kg (132 lb) per pallet and carries 60 tools as standard, against 30 on the MX-330; with the pallets fitted, part height drops to 300 mm (11.81 in).
