HYUNDAI KIA KH 50G HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2011 Hyundai Kia KH50G is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center engineered for precision metal removal operations. This robust machine features a two-speed geared spindle designed specifically for high-torque, low-RPM cutting applications, delivering maximum torque of 664.5 lbf·ft at 4,500 r/min with continuous ratings of 538.4 lbf·ft. The spindle utilizes a BT50 taper interface and is powered by an 18.5/15 kW (25/20 HP) motor, providing exceptional cutting capability for demanding production runs. The machine accommodates a 60-position automatic tool changer for seamless tool transitions, minimizing cycle time and enhancing operational efficiency. The 1000 PSI high-pressure through-spindle coolant system ensures superior chip evacuation and heat dissipation during aggressive machining, while rigid tapping capability enables precise internal threading without the need for separate tapping operations. Structural rigidity is achieved through box guides on all axes and an 8-face contact Y-axis guideway, coupled with a specially designed column that minimizes thermal displacement for maintained accuracy over extended production schedules. The shuttle-type automatic pallet changer features dual 500×500mm (19.7"×19.7") pallets with 800kg load capacity each, enabling lights-out machining and maximizing productivity. Rapid traverse rates of 787 ipm across all axes combined with air semi-rising Z-axis slideways ensure quick positioning while maintaining repeatability accuracy. The machine accommodates workpieces up to Ø900mm×H780mm, making it suitable for mid-sized component manufacturing across aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors.
