How much does the Tornos MultiDeco 32/6 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a multi-spindle automatic in this class — not a quote from Tornos. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Tornos MultiDeco 32/6 is listed as a six-spindle CNC bar automatic for stock up to 32 mm (1.260 in), with spindle speeds up to 8,000 RPM per spindle and back working. The model is not in Tornos's current lineup, and the listed figures are approximate.
By those figures this is a large installation: approximately 13,000 to 16,000 kg, a floor space of approximately 4.5 m × 3.0 m and a power consumption of approximately 60 to 80 kVA. All three are ranges. That is enough to rule a site in or out, but not enough to design a foundation or size a transformer, so take the exact weight and connected load from the machine's plate before committing.
On the cutting side, 8,000 RPM is more speed than full-diameter turning of 32 mm steel bar will use. The headroom is there for the smaller diameters on a part and for drilling. Live tooling is listed as available at multiple spindle positions, with multiple NC axes per position. Neither is counted and no spindle power is given, so heavy cuts on full-size bar are something to prove on the machine.
Buyers who want this bar size in a model with a published table can look at the MultiSwiss 6x32, which Tornos lists with 8-32 mm bar capacity, 6,000 rpm spindles and a weight of 14,800 kg.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 32 mm (1.260 in) bar capacity across six spindles
- Up to 8,000 RPM per spindle, leaving speed in hand for small diameters and drilling
- Back working is listed, for finishing the cut-off side inside the cycle
- Live tooling available at multiple spindle positions, with multiple NC axes per position
Limitations
- Power consumption of approximately 60 to 80 kVA calls for a heavy electrical supply
- Approximately 13,000 to 16,000 kg on approximately 4.5 m × 3.0 m of floor, so floor capacity and access need checking
- No part length, spindle power or tool count is listed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures are a weight of approximately 13,000 to 16,000 kg, a floor space of approximately 4.5 m × 3.0 m and a power consumption of approximately 60 to 80 kVA. Because each is a range, use the upper value for a first check and the machine's plate for the final one.
02
Maximum bar capacity is listed as 32 mm (1.260 in) on six spindles, with spindle speeds up to 8,000 RPM per spindle. Part length is not listed, so the length of work the machine can turn has to be measured or taken from its manual.
03
Back working is listed, which means the part can be taken at cut-off and machined on its second end before it leaves the machine. Live tooling is also listed as available at multiple spindle positions, though the number of driven tools is not given.
04
For the same top bar diameter, the MultiSwiss 6x32 is a six-spindle machine that Tornos lists with 8-32 mm bar capacity, 6,000 rpm spindles, 20 Nm of spindle torque and a weight of 14,800 kg. Its figures are a firmer basis for planning than the approximate ones listed here.
