CLAUSING EL 15/17 GH HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Clausing EL 15/17 GH is a horizontal machining center designed for precision turning with robust capabilities. It features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 16.13 inches and a turning length capacity of up to 65 inches. The spindle swing reaches 17.69 inches, allowing for versatile workpiece accommodation. The spindle motor delivers 7.5 horsepower with a maximum spindle speed of 2,200 RPM, supporting efficient material removal and machining operations. This machine employs a slide-type primary tool carrier capable of holding up to 12 tools for turning, although only one tool can cut simultaneously. It operates on a 2-axis system with X, Y, and Z axes travels of 8.25 inches (optional 10.13 inches) in X, 45 inches (optional 65 inches) in Z, and unspecified Y travel. The X, Y, and Z axes all share a maximum feed rate of 118 inches per minute with rapid traverse speeds of up to 200 inches per minute, enabling fast and precise tool positioning. The design and specifications support a balance between capacity and precision suitable for complex and moderate-sized machining tasks. This horizontal machining center is ideal for applications requiring extended axial machining lengths and moderate to heavy-duty turning.
