KNUTH DL E HEAVY 620/5000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The KNUTH DL E HEAVY 620/5000 is a robust horizontal machining center engineered for large-scale heavy-duty production. Featuring a generous maximum turning diameter of 49 inches and an extended turning length of 197 inches, this machine accommodates substantial workpieces for comprehensive multi-axis machining operations. Equipped with a single main spindle rated at 29.50 HP, the machine delivers consistent cutting power across extended production runs, with a secondary spindle provision also rated at 29.50 HP for enhanced operational flexibility. The Z-axis travel span of 189 inches provides exceptional vertical machining envelope, enabling deep cavity work and complex part geometries. The simultaneous dual-tool cutting capability allows for increased productivity by executing multiple cutting operations in parallel, significantly reducing cycle times and improving throughput. This configuration is particularly suited for aerospace, heavy equipment, and industrial component manufacturing where precision, rigidity, and extended work envelope are critical requirements. The machine's substantial structure and heavyweight design minimize deflection during aggressive cutting, ensuring dimensional accuracy and superior surface finish on difficult-to-machine materials. The horizontal spindle orientation, combined with the large pallet capacity, facilitates efficient chip evacuation and simplified workpiece loading/unloading cycles, optimizing production efficiency for both prototype development and high-volume manufacturing environments.
