Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Willemin-Macodel 808MT2 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 Willemin-Macodel 808MT2 is a bar-fed multi-process machine scaled down to 1.4 m² of floor. It mills and turns from Ø27 mm bar with linear motors on X, Y and Z and torque motors on both rotary axes, inside a cabinet 980 mm wide.
Bar stock runs through the horizontal A axis on an A3 cone. The axis turns at up to 10,000 rpm, well above the 6,000 min-1 of the 408MT, and its continuous torque is listed as 12 Nm / 18.1 Nm. Small diameters need that speed to reach a sensible surface speed, which is the reasoning behind the pairing of a small bar with a fast axis.
Milling is done by an HSK-A25 spindle on a B axis that swings from -45° to +120° with 24 Nm of continuous torque. The spindle delivers 8.3 kW in S1 and 12.5 kW in S6, 3 Nm and 4.5 Nm of torque, and 42,000 min-1 with 60,000 min-1 in brackets. Travels are 250 mm in X, 120 mm in Y and 210 mm in Z at 60 m/min.
For the cut-off side Willemin-Macodel describes a 2-position pick-up unit, 0° or 90°, with a hydraulic or pneumatic pick-up vise. The magazine has 74 tool positions, or 137 as the bracketed figure, for tools up to Ø35 mm and 1 kg, and changes chip to chip in under 5 sec. The table also covers services: 80 L of oil, 40 L/min of coolant flow, programmable high pressure up to 80 bar and a 50 bar hydraulic pack. No numerical control is named on the page.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The maximum bar passage is Ø27 mm on an A3 cone. The A axis is driven by a torque motor, turns at up to 10,000 rpm in turning mode and has a continuous torque listed as 12 Nm / 18.1 Nm.
02
8.3 kW in S1 and 12.5 kW in S6, with 3 Nm and 4.5 Nm of torque. The interface is HSK-A25, the standard maximum speed is 42,000 min-1 and 60,000 min-1 is printed in brackets. Lubrication is air-oil and DTS thermal stabilization is integrated.
03
The 408MT is the larger machine: Ø36 mm bar, 250 mm, 200 mm and 310 mm of travel and an HSK-E40 spindle on 3 m². The 808MT2 takes Ø27 mm bar, travels 250 mm, 120 mm and 210 mm, uses HSK-A25 tooling and needs 1.4 m². Its linear axes feed at 60 m/min, where the 408MT lists 40 m/min.
04
A 50 L chip bin with 200 µm filtration, an oil pan holding 80 L, an irrigation flow rate of 40 L/min and programmable high-pressure coolant from 0 to 80 bar at 4 L/min. The hydraulic power pack operates at 50 bar.
