The price estimate for the DMG Mori CTX 450 4A is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/dmg-mori-ctx-450-4a#price; the request is passed to DMG Mori or an authorised dealer.
Two tool carriers with up to 36 tool positions. The upper turret has 12/16 tool stations as a VDI 40 turret or 20 tool stations as the optional VDI 30 turret. The lower turret has 12 tool stations as a VDI 40 turret or 16 tool stations as the optional VDI 30 turret. Both turrets can work on both spindles, individually or simultaneously.
Left spindle: ISM 80 with 4,500 rpm and 280 Nm, optionally ISM 102 with 3,500 rpm and 620 Nm. Right spindle: ISM 65 with 5,500 rpm and max. 171 Nm, optionally ISM 80 with 4,500 rpm and 280 Nm. With the optional ISM 80 on the right, both spindles have the same speed and torque.
On the VDI 40 turrets, upper and lower, DMG MORI gives up to 12,000 rpm and 38 Nm. The optional VDI 30 upper turret with 20 tool stations has the same 12,000 rpm or 38 Nm. The optional VDI 30 lower turret with 16 tool stations is rated 12,000 rpm and max. 11 Nm, so heavier milling belongs on the upper turret in that configuration.
The table gives a maximum workpiece diameter of 430 mm (16.9 in), a maximum workpiece length of 800 mm (31.5 in) and a bar capacity of 102 mm (4 in). For 6-sided complete machining DMG MORI's Highlights quote workpieces up to Ø 430 x 700 mm. Z travel is 760 mm (29.9 in).
The CTX 450 4A has two tool carriers and slightly less travel than the CTX 450: 280 mm (11 in) in X and 760 mm (29.9 in) in Z, against 310 mm (12.2 in) and 825 mm (32.5 in) on the CTX 450. Y travel is 130 mm (5.1 in) on both. The CTX 450 takes workpieces up to 480 mm (18.9 in) in diameter, the CTX 450 4A up to 430 mm (16.9 in).
