Hurco CNC Machine Technology at EASTEC 2019

BX40Ui Hurco 5-Axis CNC Machine

​​​​INDIANAPOLIS – Hurco distributor Brooks Associates will demonstrate the power of Hurco 5-axis technology at EASTEC Booth #1206. The Hurco BX40Ui 5-axis CNC double-column machining center, with integrated trunnion table along the Y-axis, is the perfect combination of performance and flexibility. The ladder structure and double-column design provide extreme rigidity and outstanding support to the head casting. With an 18K motorized spindle and oversized linear guide rollers, the BX40Ui is perfect for a wide range of applications. Additionally, the bridge structure is isolated from part weight and operates in a stable and predictable manner. Exceptional cutting feed rates are achieved with patented high-speed motion technology called UltiMotion that simultaneously reduces cycle times by up to 30% or more and delivers outstanding surface finish quality. Experience the flexibility and ergonomic design of the Hurco control in person. See how easy the new Solid Model Import feature of the Hurco control makes programming, especially for high-mix shops that manufacture smaller quantities of parts. Brooks Associates will also exhibit the newly released Hurco VMX30Di high performance machining center with direct-drive 18K spindle and the TMX8MYSi slant-bed lathe with all-digital drives and motors and absolute encoders on all linear axes. Industry partner Greenleaf Corporation will showcase the Hurco 3-axis VM10i machining center at Booth #5317. The VM10i features a small footprint with a large work cube. No other mill packs as much productivity into such an efficiently designed package.
