Full mill-turn precision and double the pallets: Meet the Matsuura MX-520T!
By Rowan Easter-Robinson
Milling and turning in a single operation, delivering precision, speed, and flexibility like never before.
Upgrades from the previous 520 include seven pallets instead of four, advanced control features, and seamless tool management, all while keeping the same footprint and work envelope. Turning large billets now takes just ten to fifteen minutes compared to hours on milling, enabling lights-out operation and eliminating secondary machines.
As Damien Grice of Matsuura Machinery Ltd explains, the MX-520T isn’t just a mill with a bit of turning – it’s a full mill-turn solution that doubles your payload and options for unmanned, high-efficiency machining.
