CLAUSING EL 13/14 GH HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Clausing EL 13/14 GH is a precision horizontal machining center engineered for versatile turning and sliding operations. This machine features a robust main spindle with a maximum turning diameter capacity of 14 inches and an extended maximum turning length of 40 inches, accommodating a wide range of workpiece geometries. The spindle achieves a maximum swing of 20.38 inches, enabling efficient machining of larger components. Operating at 2,000 RPM with 4.5 horsepower, the spindle delivers reliable power for consistent metal removal across steel, aluminum, and brass applications. The machine utilizes a slide-type primary tool carrier with capacity for up to 12 turning tools, though only one cutting tool engages simultaneously, allowing sequential operations without tool interruption. The two-axis configuration provides X-axis travel of 6.56 inches (expandable to 7.75 inches) and Z-axis travel of 30 inches (expandable to 40 inches), offering flexibility for diverse machining requirements. All axes deliver rapid traverse speeds of 200 inches per minute with maximum feed rates of 118 inches per minute, ensuring efficient cycle times and production throughput. The compact footprint and modular design make this center suitable for job shops, tool and die facilities, and manufacturing environments requiring high precision turning operations with quick tool changes and accessible workpiece loading.
