ELHA SPX 5176 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The ELHA SPX 5176 is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center designed primarily for multi-spindle horizontal drilling and milling of large, heavy workpieces such as rollers and cylinders. It features substantial axis travels of approximately 98.4 inches (X), 70.9 inches (Y), and 39.4 inches (Z), allowing versatile machining of large parts. The machine is equipped with a powerful 56.3-horsepower main spindle capable of a maximum speed of 3,000 RPM, supporting demanding machining tasks. Controlled by an advanced CNC system, it ensures high precision and automation for complex operations. Constructed with a vibration-damping composite multi-part frame and base for enhanced rigidity and stability, the SPX 5176 optimizes machining accuracy. It incorporates a large rotary table capable of handling workpieces weighing up to 45 tons with angular positioning accuracy of ±3 arc seconds, facilitating precise multi-angle machining. The machine supports the use of manually adjustable, automatically interchangeable twin-spindle drilling heads, significantly reducing machining time through simultaneous operations. Additional features include multiple automatic tool magazines to accommodate a range of milling and drilling tools, enabling efficient tool changes and extended machining cycles. Weighing approximately 366,000 pounds, this machine is designed for heavy industrial environments requiring robust, high-capacity machining centers. It is particularly suited for industries dealing with large-scale parts, such as cylinder manufacturing, heavy rollers, or similar components, providing a combination of size, power, precision, and advanced tooling capabilities essential for heavy and complex machining tasks.
