The Tormach 1100MX, in its 2023 configuration, is a high-precision benchtop-style vertical machining center designed for small footprint, high-output environments. It offers a full-featured production suite including a 12-position automatic tool changer, touch probe, programmable coolant, and 4th axis rotary system, all enclosed in a sleek operator-safe housing with touchscreen console.
Its travels include X: 18?, Y: 11?, and Z: 16.25?, making it ideal for small-to-medium parts in aluminum, steels, plastics, and tool steels. The BT30 spindle, driven by a 2 HP servo motor, reaches up to 10,000 RPM, suitable for light milling, drilling, tapping, and engraving operations. The servo motors on all axes ensure smoother interpolation and high-resolution movement.
The 4th Axis, combined with the PathPilot CNC control, supports indexed and continuous rotary machining, enabling gear cutting, cylindrical engraving, and multi-sided part strategies. The machine is known for its exceptional rigidity due to linear rails on all axes, cast-iron frame, and dual ball screws on the Y-axis.
