DMG MORI USA, INC. ALX 1500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The DMG MORI USA, INC. ALX 1500 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision horizontal machining operations. Featuring a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 18.100" and a turning length of 80.100", the ALX 1500 is capable of handling large workpieces with a maximum swing of 31.100" and a chuck diameter of 6.000". The spindle delivers up to 6,000 RPM and 10 HP, ensuring robust cutting performance for a wide range of materials. The machine is equipped with a BMT turret as the primary tool carrier, supporting simultaneous cutting with one tool. With three axes of motion, the ALX 1500 provides X-axis travel of 10.200" and Z-axis travel of 23.220", enabling versatile part processing. Rapid traverse rates of 1,181 ipm on all axes enhance productivity by minimizing non-cutting time. The ALX 1500 is engineered for high rigidity, accuracy, and reliability, making it suitable for demanding production environments. Its compact footprint and efficient design allow for integration into various manufacturing setups, while the horizontal spindle orientation facilitates effective chip evacuation and improved surface finishes. This machining center is ideal for applications requiring high throughput, precision, and flexibility in horizontal machining tasks.
