Murata Machinery Debuts MT1065EX Twin-Spindle CNC Turning Machine for High-Speed Precision!

At PMTS 2025, Murata Machinery USA (Muratec) introduces the MT1065EX, an advanced twin-spindle CNC turning machine designed to excel in high-speed bar-fed machining applications. Combining precision, efficiency, and versatility in a compact design, the MT1065EX is ideal for industries requiring high-performance, precise machining.

The MT1065EX features two spindles and two live-tool turrets, with the upper turret offering Y-axis functionality to perform complex operations like pinch turning and simultaneous first- and second-operation machining. Powered by robust motors — an 18.5-kW motor on the left spindle and a 15-kW motor on the right — the machine is designed to handle demanding machining tasks with ease.

Equipped with 12 tool stations per turret and 24 index positions, the MT1065EX supports both independent and synchronized operations, ensuring optimal production efficiency. The machine’s advanced thermal compensation feature ensures consistent accuracy, making it particularly suitable for applications in industries like automotive manufacturing and high-mix, low-volume job shops, where precision is critical.

The MT1065EX also integrates seamlessly with bar feeders for unattended operation, enabling continuous production during off-hours such as nights and weekends, which significantly boosts productivity. Additionally, the machine’s intuitive software simplifies programming, reduces waste, and streamlines operations, making it a cost-effective solution that maximizes output and profitability for manufacturers.

Overall, the MT1065EX is a versatile, high-performance solution for demanding machining environments, offering both precision and efficiency to enhance production capabilities in a wide range of applications.
