How much does the Willemin-Macodel 508MT2 X1000 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Willemin-Macodel 508MT2 X1000 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
One metre of X travel sets the Willemin-Macodel 508MT2 X1000 apart from every other machine in the range. It is the long-bed version of the 508MT2: X is 1,000 mm, Y 200 mm and Z 385 mm on linear motors at 60 m/min, and the cabinet grows to 2,505 mm wide on 5.4 m² of floor.
The bar side is heavier too. Standard bar passage is Ø51 mm through an A6 cone, with 65 mm in brackets, where the 508MT2 starts at Ø42 mm. A torque motor drives the A axis with 72 nm in S1 and 96 nm in S6, at 6,000 min-1 for turning and 200 min-1 for milling.
The long X axis leaves room for more than one working station. Under other options the page lists a turning turret with a Tri-fix interface, (12 positions), a milling speed of (12,000 min-1) and an indexing time of (0.6 sec). Willemin-Macodel says the machine can cut simultaneously with the milling spindle and this turret. A recovery turret with a U-axis travel of (560 mm) and a return spindle turning at (8,000 min-1) on a Cone A4 interface handle the second side, alongside a vice or tailstock.
All of that is optional equipment, printed in brackets, so two machines with this name can be very different. The fixed part is the B-axis milling head, -45° to +115°, with the HSK-E40 spindle and a 48-tool magazine (72 in the bracketed size, 224 positions as an option). The control is a FANUC 31i-B5 PLUS iHMI Pro.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X travel and bar size. The 508MT2 X1000 has 1,000 mm of X, a standard Ø51 mm bar passage on an A6 cone and a floor area of 5.4 m². The 508MT2 has 400 mm of X, Ø42 mm bar on an A4 cone as standard and 4 m². Y and Z are 200 mm and 385 mm on both.
02
As an option. The page lists a turning turret with a Tri-fix interface, a capacity of (12 positions), a milling speed of (12,000 min-1) and an indexing time of (0.6 sec). The maker describes 12 motorized positions and simultaneous machining with the motorized milling spindle.
03
A recovery turret with a U-axis travel of (560 mm), a return spindle on a Cone A4 interface running at (300 min-1) in milling mode and (8,000 min-1) in turning mode, and a pneumatic or hydraulic clamping vice, counter-spindle or tailstock. All are listed under other options.
04
The maximum bar passage is Ø51 mm, with 65 mm in brackets, on an A6 cone. The A axis is driven by a torque motor with 72 nm of S1 torque and 96 nm in S6, and turns at 6,000 min-1 in turning mode.
