Compact Hurco machines deliver substantial power

Both machines are fitted as standard with the Hurco WinMax single-screen control that offers simple conversational programming and comprehensive, industry standard NC capabilities. Maximum flexibility for any job that may arrive is provided, ideal for small volume or one-off production. Touch-screen, colour graphics and a 64GB hard-drive are standard.

The VM10i offers a working volume of 660 x 406 X 508 mm, which is large considering the compact 1.8 metre x 1.75 metre footprint. A 20-station swing-arm toolchanger and 24 m/min rapids help to minimise non-cutting time, while a 762 mm x 406 mm table with a maximum weight capacity of 340 kg and a 11 kW / 73.6 Nm spindle create a package that delivers full machining centre performance.

Likewise, the TM6i slant-bed turning centre has a tiny footprint for its specification, which includes a 6-inch chuck and a maximum cutting diameter of 316 mm. Distance between centres is 403 mm. The machine is ideally sized for even the smallest of shops and is well suited to bar work up to 42 mm diameter. The single-piece bed casting provides excellent control of cutting forces. Chip management is included in the competitive price, as is a 3-jaw chuck and Renishaw probe.
