KNUTH DL S 425/3000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The KNUTH DL S 425/3000 is a horizontal machining center designed for robust and precise turning operations with a maximum turning diameter of 33.000 inches and a maximum turning length of 118.000 inches. It features a dual main spindle setup, each spindle capable of 630 RPM and delivering 20.1 HP, providing balanced power for simultaneous or sequential machining tasks. The machine utilizes a primary tool carrier with an A2-11 spindle interface, supporting efficient tool changes and high rigidity. The Z-axis travel is 10.000 inches, allowing for adequate vertical machining range. This setup is suitable for medium to large workpieces requiring stable, high-torque spindle operation at moderate speed. The dual-spindle configuration enhances productivity by allowing continuous machining operations without manual reloading, while the 20.1 HP spindle motors provide dependable power for cutting tougher materials. Its horizontal orientation supports chip evacuation and workpiece stability during long turning lengths, making it ideal for complex or heavy-duty manufacturing processes. Overall, the KNUTH DL S 425/3000 balances spindle power, size, and tool capacity for effective horizontal turning and machining tasks on sizable parts.
