This Huron KX8 is a used machining center — sometimes referred to as a CNC machining center or milling center — a computer-controlled machine tool designed to perform precision milling, drilling, boring, and related cutting operations on metal and other materials. Huron is a well-established French manufacturer of high-precision machine tools, with a long history of supplying milling and machining equipment to aerospace, automotive, mould-making, and general engineering industries.
Built in 2006 and currently located in Portugal, this five-axis machine is configured for complex, multi-surface work, with an indexing accuracy of 0.001°, allowing highly precise rotational positioning across its axes. The axis travels are 650 mm in X, 700 mm in Y, and 450 mm in Z, giving a solid working envelope for medium-sized components. The table measures 500 mm, and the overall footprint of the machine is 4,100 × 2,050 mm, with a standing height of 3,060 mm.
The spindle runs at up to 42,000 rpm and is driven by a 10 kW motor, making it well suited to high-speed machining of aluminium, composites, and precision steel components. The machine uses HSK40 toolholding, a system valued for its high rigidity and repeatability at elevated spindle speeds. The automatic tool changer accommodates up to 28 tools, supporting uninterrupted multi-operation cycles without manual intervention. The machine operates on a 380 V supply and has a total weight of 7,000 kg.
