How much does the Toshiba MPC-T cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc boring machine in this class — not a quote from Shibaura Machine. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Toshiba MPC-T is listed as a large boring machine with a 130 mm (5.1 in) boring spindle, a table of 2,500 x 2,500 mm as standard and 6,000 mm (236 in) of X travel. The model row of the table reads MPC2665B, and the model is not on Shibaura Machine's current pages, so both the designation and the listed figures should be checked against the plate and documents of the machine itself.
Listed travel is 6,000 mm (236 in) in X, 3,000 mm (118 in) in Y and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) in Z, with a 1,000 mm (39.4 in) W-axis quill. The table rotates through 360° continuously and is rated for 50,000 kg (110,230 lb) as standard, with higher loads on request and table sizes up to 6,000 x 6,000 mm as custom builds. A table of that size and rating points to very large single workpieces machined on several faces in one setup.
The spindle is listed at 1 to 800 rpm with 55 kW (73.8 hp). That is a low-speed range for large boring bars and face mills, and work that needs small tools at high speed is outside it. Positioning accuracy is listed as ± 0.010 mm, the control as Fanuc 30iM / Siemens 840D and the machine weight as about 200,000 kg (440,924 lb), which makes the foundation a project in its own right.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Table listed at 2,500 x 2,500 mm as standard, with 360° continuous rotation
- Standard table load of 50,000 kg (110,230 lb), with higher loads listed on request
- 6,000 mm (236 in) of X and 3,000 mm (118 in) of Y travel
- 130 mm (5.1 in) boring spindle with a 1,000 mm (39.4 in) W-axis quill and 55 kW (73.8 hp)
Limitations
- Spindle speed is limited to 800 rpm
- The model row reads MPC2665B, not MPC-T, so the exact designation of any machine has to be confirmed
- A listed weight of about 200,000 kg (440,924 lb) means major foundation work
- Not on Shibaura Machine's current pages, and no tool magazine or rapid traverse rows are listed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed table is 2,500 x 2,500 mm as standard, with sizes up to 6,000 x 6,000 mm as custom builds. Standard table load is 50,000 kg (110,230 lb), with higher loads on request. Travel is 6,000 mm (236 in) in X, 3,000 mm (118 in) in Y and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) in Z.
02
A 130 mm (5.1 in) boring spindle with 55 kW (73.8 hp) and a range of 1 to 800 rpm, plus a 1,000 mm (39.4 in) quill on the W axis. No torque or taper row is listed. The speed range restricts the machine to large tools run slowly.
03
The BTH-130.R24 lists a 2,000 x 2,400 mm (78.7 x 94.4 in) table rated for 20,000 kg (44,000 lb) and a standard spindle range of 5-2,500 rpm. The listed figures for the MPC-T are a 2,500 x 2,500 mm table, 50,000 kg (110,230 lb) and 1 to 800 rpm, so it is the heavier and slower of the two.
04
The table's own model row reads MPC2665B, and the model is not on Shibaura Machine's current pages. Read the full designation from the machine's plate instead of relying on the name MPC-T. The control row lists Fanuc 30iM / Siemens 840D, which also has to be confirmed on the machine.
