The CTX beta 1250 TC 4A is a DMG MORI turn-mill machine that combines turning with milling using a compactMASTER turn-mill spindle and a second tool carrier. Its linear strokes are 490 mm in X, 200 mm in Y and 1,200 mm in Z, and it accepts workpieces up to 340 mm diameter and 1,185 mm long, with 102 mm bar capacity. The B-axis swivels ±110° so tools can approach the workpiece at an angle.
