 Well beyond an ordinary slant-bed turning center
Hurco Turning Centers
 

Hurco's TM Series of slant-bed turning centers are innovative and unique in that they combine productive machine specifications and solid iron with Hurco’s powerful and flexible MAX control.

The TM Series is ideal for job shops and contract manufacturers who need efficient processing of small to medium sized lots. We start with solid iron to construct a small footprint machine with a large work cube. Our design allows you to get the most out of your valuable shop floor space while still having the flexible work area you need. The TM is currently available in three chuck sizes: 6, 8 and 10 inches.

These lathes are also designed to provide fast set-ups and cycle times. The fast turret keeps cycle times short, yet is easy to access for faster tool setups. A wide variety of productivity enhancing options and accessories are also available for the TM series including tailstocks, chip management systems, tool settersparts catchers and bar feeders.

At the heart of the TM Series is the power and flexibility of the Hurco MAX control. The control can be programmed on the shop floor with Hurco's patented conversational programming language. Hurco conversational is not only easy to learn and use, it can also significantly reduce programming times compared to NC programming. Users who prefer NC can also program and edit on the shop floor with the Hurco control. Parts can also be programmed offline using popular CAM software or Hurco's Winmax desktop software. Even CAD files can be converted to programs to run on the TM Series.  No other lathe offers this type of power and flexibility. The Hurco control allows users to choose the best method of programming for their shop and for each individual job. Furthermore, the easy to use touch screen provides helpful setup and verification graphics that show cuts on the screen before they are executed--virtually eliminating wasted materials and potential machine crashes.

The TM Series offers convenience, efficiency, power and flexibility at a great price. The TM6 starts at just $41,900 (USA packaging).
