DMG MORI NHX 5000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The DMG MORI NHX 5000 is a high-performance horizontal machining center optimized for stability, precision, and dynamics in industrial machining applications. It features a robust 4-axis configuration with travels of 28.7" (X), 28.7" (Y), and 34.5" (Z), allowing for versatile machining of workpieces up to 500 kg. The machine is driven by a powerful 40 hp spindle motor delivering up to 12,000 RPM, with a tool taper size of 40 to accommodate a broad range of tools. It supports a high-capacity 40-tool changer, enabling efficient tool switching and minimizing downtime. The pallet system measures approximately 19.7" x 19.7", facilitating quick workpiece setups. The NHX 5000’s structural design incorporates a high-rigidity bed with stepped X-axis guideways to maximize precision and vibration dampening. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 165" by 105" by 100" high, weighing roughly 22,000 lbs, which reflects its solid build quality suited for heavy-duty production environments. Advanced features include direct scale feedback for precise positioning, high rapid feed rates, rigid tapping, and flood coolant systems. Control options typically include Siemens or FANUC CNC systems. The NHX 5000 is engineered to deliver high-speed, accurate machining with a rapid tool change cycle and robust spindle performance, suitable for automotive, aerospace, and general mechanical applications requiring continuous and mass production machining.
