Murata Machinery USA (Muratec USA), a pioneer in machining and a world-class leader in automation, announces the North American premiere of its innovative MT1065EX, at the Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS) 2025, booth 3073, held April 1-3 in Cleveland, Ohio. Engineered for exceptional speed, accuracy, and versatility, the MT1065EX is set to redefine bar-fed machining applications with its advanced twin-spindle, CNC turning capabilities.
Designed for bar-fed machining applications, the MT1065EX features two spindles and two live-tool turrets, with Y-axis functionality in the upper turret for enhanced versatility. It accommodates 6" or 8" chucks powered by an 18.5kW left spindle motor and a 15kW right spindle motor, ensuring robust performance across demanding applications.
Each turret offers 12 tool stations with 24 index positions, allowing independent machining operations or synchronized pinch-turning and milling. The MT1065EX's compact design optimizes floor space while delivering superior machining capabilities.
Key features of Muratec’s MT1065EX Twin Spindle CNC Turning Center:
- Thermal compensation system: Equipped with 11 strategically placed sensors, the MT1065EX maintains long-term stability and accuracy during extended operations.
- Versatile axis configuration: Both turrets can access either spindle, enhancing operational flexibility.
- Cutting-edge software: Simplifies programming, optimizes tooling paths, and reduces material waste while integrating production scheduling and real-time monitoring.
- Compact, flexible design: Configurable chip conveyor supports right-side or rear discharge for seamless shop integration.
Muratec USA’s commitment to Midwest manufacturing
The Midwest, and particularly Michigan and Ohio, has long been the heart of American manufacturing and the historical nexus of the nation’s automotive industry. As a global leader in CNC turning solutions and automation, Muratec USA recognizes the region’s critical role in driving technological advancements and industrial growth.
Cleveland, the host city of PMTS 2025, is a vital hub for precision machining with a rich history of industrial innovation and a strong manufacturing base. With more than 2,000 Muratec spindles running within 150 miles of Cleveland, Muratec USA proudly supports an array of Midwest industries, including, but not limited to, medical, firearms, fittings, and general job shops.
In April, Muratec USA – in cooperation with its trusted dealer partner across the Midwest region, Cincinnati-based Technical Equipment Sales Company (TESCO) – will deliver its legacy of automation innovation by debuting the MT1065EX at PMTS 2025.
Featured alongside the MT1065EX at Cleveland’s Huntington Convention Center, booth 3073, Muratec will showcase the MSR60, a powerhouse single-spindle turning center with Y-axis capabilities for multitasking machining, and the small but mighty MW35, a high-speed lathe designed for mass production of small parts in less than three (3) seconds.
