2024 Matsuura MX-330 PC10 CNC 5-Axis Vertical Machining Center

The 2024 Matsuura MX-330 PC10 is a compact, production-grade 5-axis vertical machining center designed for lights-out and high-mix manufacturing. At its core is a 25 HP, 20,000 RPM CAT 40 Big Plus spindle delivering 80 ft-lbs of torque — enough authority for aggressive cuts in steel, titanium, and aerospace alloys while maintaining the speed needed for fine finishing in aluminum. The trunnion-style B/C rotary table provides full simultaneous 5-axis capability, allowing complex geometry and undercuts to be machined in a single setup. A 90-tool chain magazine virtually eliminates tool shortages across multiple part programs, and the integrated 10-station automatic pallet pool keeps the spindle cutting while operators load and unload parts offline. Travels of 24.8 inches in X, 22.04 inches in Y, and 20.07 inches in Z accommodate a standard work envelope of 13 inches in diameter by 11.8 inches tall, with each pallet supporting up to 177 pounds. The FANUC G-Tech 31i control delivers current-generation processing speed and is built for seamless integration with automation and cell management software. The MX-330 PC10 builds on Matsuura's legacy of precision pallet-pool machines but represents a meaningful evolution over the earlier MAM72-35V and MX-330 single-pallet configurations. Where the MAM72-35V relied on an older FANUC 31i-A5 control and offered fewer pallet stations in its standard configuration, the MX-330 PC10 pairs the latest G-Tech 31i control with a full 10-station pool as standard equipment — dramatically increasing unattended runtime without requiring a custom automation cell. The RAM-type construction, hand-built at Matsuura's Fukui, Japan facility, provides superior rigidity compared to column-type competitors in this footprint class. At just 6.1 feet wide by 10 feet long, the MX-330 PC10 delivers pallet-pool 5-axis capability in a footprint that fits shops previously limited to standalone 3-axis machines, making it an ideal bridge between prototype work and true production automation.
