Used Matsuura Cublex-43: Sell or Buy at Auction

Matsuura is a Japanese machine tool manufacturer known for high-speed 5-axis machining centers and multi-pallet automated systems. Matsuura machines are a standard in aerospace composite machining, die and mold, and high-mix precision production environments. The MX and Cublex series offer integrated pallet automation for lights-out manufacturing.

The Matsuura Cublex-43 is a compact 5-axis multi-tasking machining center, the class of machine that combines full 5-axis milling with turning, and optional grinding, on a single vertical platform. Instead of being a milling-only 5-axis machine, it uses a tilting A-axis and rotary C-axis table, and that rotary table doubles as a high-speed turning spindle, so a part can be milled and turned in one chucking without moving it to a separate lathe. Finishing a complex part complete in a single setup is the defining trait of the Cublex line, and Matsuura pairs it with an HSK-tooled high-speed milling spindle and integrated pallet automation. The onboard pallet system stages several fixtured setups and runs the machine unattended through job changes, so a shop can keep a high-mix workload cutting around the clock. Die and mold shops cutting hardened tool steel, aerospace shops producing titanium and complex tooling components, and medical device manufacturers running high-mix, small-lot work are the primary buyers, drawn to single-chucking accuracy and the ability to hold tolerance through long unattended cycles. KD Auctions sees the strongest results on Cublex-43 listings that keep the full pallet pool, tool magazine, and controller software intact, putting each machine in front of the aerospace and precision-manufacturing shops most likely to bid through a network of 500,000+ industry contacts.
