SHARP KHM 120 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The SHARP KHM 120 is a robust horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty machining tasks, featuring a large work table measuring 43.3" x 31.5" (optional 23.6" x 23.6") capable of supporting workpieces up to 2,645 lbs. It operates with a horizontal spindle configured with an NT50 taper, delivering a maximum spindle speed of 1,500 RPM and rated at 10 HP for 30-minute continuous operation, enabling efficient cutting of heavy materials. This machine provides three linear axes (X, Y, Z) with travels of 47" x 47" x 31" respectively, each capable of a maximum feed rate of 35 inches per minute and rapid traverse speeds up to 113 inches per minute, offering precise and flexible machining across a sizable workspace. The absence of a U axis indicates a conventional 3-axis setup, suitable for a wide range of milling, drilling, and boring operations on large, heavy parts. Optional support for the table index feature enhances positioning accuracy, while rotary table support is not standard. The machine's solid construction allows stable machining of sizable components, making it suitable for industries requiring large workpiece capacity and moderate spindle speed with strong torque via the NT50 taper spindle interface. This combination provides durability and versatility for machining demanding metal parts in production or job shop environments.
