Huron KX 5 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features a compact work envelope with a 19.700" x 15.700" table accommodating workpieces up to 637 lbs, making it suitable for precision component manufacturing. The machine is equipped with a high-speed HSK spindle rated at 25,000 RPM with 10 HP continuous output, enabling aggressive cutting operations across a range of materials and delivering excellent surface finishes. The three-axis configuration provides 19.700" travel on the X-axis, 15.700" on both Y and Z axes, with rapid traverse rates of 1,575 ipm across all three axes, ensuring efficient tool positioning and reduced cycle times. The 16-position automatic tool changer (ATC) facilitates flexible manufacturing by enabling quick tool selection without manual intervention, supporting diverse cutting operations within a single setup. Maximum feed rates of 1,181 ipm on all axes support both roughing and finishing operations with precision and productivity. The HSK spindle interface provides superior rigidity and repeatability through its hollow taper design with dual contact points between the tool holder and spindle, maintaining consistent clamping force even at the machine's maximum 25,000 RPM operating speed. This combination of compact footprint, high spindle speed, rapid traverse capability, and automated tool handling makes this vertical machining center ideal for job shop and production environments requiring precision multi-operation capability with fast cycle times.
