The Next Generation in Precision Grinding
A new generationThe ANCA MX7 is a powerful, versatile next-generation CNC grinding machine, that is helping ANCA change the grinding industry worldwide. It’s built to answer today’s economic realities and the demands of high output, high-precision manufacturing. MX7 is a hard-working, high-productivity system whose unique features make it capable of handling varied batch sizes with minimum setup time. Speed, flexibility, ANCA reliability and optimum precision – the MX7 has it all.
Tool manufacturers worldwide are demanding precision grinding at lower cost and MX7 delivers it. MX7 is optimized to grind tools up to 16 mm (⅝”) diameter – focusing on the area of your greatest demand. This means the highest levels of accuracy and productivity where it counts the most.
Fast, flexible, high performance
MX7 at a glance• 10-second tool change.
• 10-second wheel change.
• Production ready.
• Wheel Changer that stores 6 HSK 50 wheel packs for increased productivity and flexibility.
• MLX loader for unmanned operation.
• Permanent magnet spindle delivers constant torque across the entire RPM range.
• Off-line tool design and development using CIMulator3D.
The Production Performer
Proven design fundamentalsThe MX7 machine design is based on the TX7 machine structure which industry can testify over the past 10 years to be the ideal production design. These proven TX7 qualities that are now part of the MX7 include:
• Outstanding rigidity and strength of machine axis.
• Designed for heavy production grinding.
• Thermal stability.
• Optimized axis travel for reduced cycle times.
All of these qualities result in the MX7 being the ideal production performer and will more than meet customer expectations. These machine features have also been designed with space in mind and are packaged in the smallest possible machine footprint.
The MX7 is in response to industry demands and delivers what customers expect from an ANCA machine.
Better performance, better profitBetter productivity, performance and an innovative system design means higher profits, greater competitiveness, and leaner manufacturing for ANCA customers.
The new generation MX7 will take you there.
Permanent-magnet spindleOutstanding spindle performance across entire spindle working range.
• High torque at lower RPM particularly suited for carbide grinding.
• Position controlled axis (Q-axis), ensures accurate and repeatable wheel pack changes.
• 10,000 RPM maximum.
• Spindle power rating of 20 kW (S1).
Wheel pack changerIncreases machine productivity and flexibility.
• 10-second wheel change time.
• Six HSK wheel packs for accurate, rigid spindle mounting.
• Coolant manifolds also changed.
• Spindle returns to same index position when changing arbors, ensuring superior repeatability (Q-axis).

Machine features and options
Wheel dressingMounting a dresser roll onto the high-speed headstock allows in-cycle dressing of grinding wheels, which is a must for any unmanned and high performance operation.
Customized wheel shapes can be imported in the form of a DXF file and automatically dressed and used in any grinding cycle.
In-process dressing
Pop-up steadyExcellent accuracy with setting control.
• Rigid design for optimum tool support.
• Fine adjustment screws helping reduce set-up time.
• Adjustable vertically, axially and also yaw.
Integrated loaderDesigned for maximum productivity and minimal setup time.
• 10-second tool change time.
• High capacity: 3 mm (⅛”) – 840 tools, 16 mm (⅝”) – 154 tools.
• Maximum tool length 250 mm (9 ¾”).
• One gripper set for loading from pallet direct to workholding.
• Integration into machine structure ensures accurate, repeatable loading.
• Loader viewed from the MX7 operator position via transparent guards.

ANCA global supportANCA’s MX7 is the CNC tool and cutter grinder chosen by the industry where high precision tools and reliability are paramount.
It is designed to meet the demands of a competitive industry, and is supported by ANCA’s world-wide team of technical specialists. Confidence that ANCA is the right choice goes beyond the machine. The ANCA team will be your partner with application and machine support from training right through to maintenance.
iViewiView, a precise tool measurement system developed by ANCA, can quickly be set up inside the machine to provide measurement data without the need to remove the tool from the machine. This data can be fed into the grinding program for automatic exact compensation, resulting in a precisely ground tool.
CIMulator3DCIMulator3D simulates the programmed tool path exactly as it would be ground on the machine. New tool programs can be verified for size, shape, machine clearance and even cycle time estimates. CIMulator3D maintains continuous work flow through the machine by reducing development time and trial grinding.
Machine features and options
