Overview

The DN Solutions NHP 6300 2ND is the second-generation version of DN Solutions' 630 × 630 mm pallet horizontal machining center. It has a 12,000 rpm ISO 50 spindle listed at 45 kW and 600 N·m, 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) rapids and a 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load. Travels are 1,050 mm (41 in) in X, 900 mm (35 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39 in) in Z, the same as the NHP 6300.

The spindle rows are where its table departs from the NHP 6300. Standard top speed is 12,000 rpm here against 10,000 rpm, and power is given as 45 kW against 30 kW (40 hp) on the NHP 6300. Torque is the same on both: 600 N·m standard and 809 N·m as an option. A 15,000 rpm spindle is also optional.

DN Solutions states a set of improvements for this generation without publishing the baseline figures. Axis acceleration and deceleration performance is improved by 20%, spindle acceleration and deceleration time is shortened by 15%, table indexing time is reduced by 35% and tool-change time is reduced by 30%. On a horizontal that changes tools and indexes the table many times per part, those are the non-cutting times that add up over a shift. DN also states that the torque of the high-torque spindle increased by 19% and that the layout is reduced by 13%.

Thermal and setup features are part of the same list. Ball-screw shaft-core and nut cooling is standard, which DN ties to maintaining machine precision. A 3-point leveling system is intended to shorten machine setup. Chip disposal via center-through is standard, and a table center-through hydraulic fixture line is an option for hydraulic clamping. A linear pallet system and a Multi-Pallet System (MPS) are the listed pallet extensions.

The machine weighs 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) and measures 6,850 × 3,775 × 3,540 mm (270 × 149 × 139 in) as length, width and height. Tool capacity is 40.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

12,000 rpm standard spindle speed and 45 kW, against 10,000 rpm and 30 kW (40 hp) on the NHP 6300
Ball-screw shaft-core and nut cooling is standard
DN Solutions states tool-change time reduced by 30% and table indexing time reduced by 35% for this generation
3-point leveling system, which DN lists as reducing machine setup time
Chip disposal via center-through is standard
1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load with 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) rapids

Limitations

The stated improvements (20%, 15%, 35%, 30%, 19% and 13%) come without baseline figures, so they cannot be turned into cycle times from the table
The table center-through hydraulic fixture line is an option, not standard equipment
Tool capacity is listed as 40, which limits duplicate tooling on long unattended runs
The 809 N·m torque and 15,000 rpm speed are both options, and the table does not say whether they can be combined

Best For

Production parts with many tool changes and table indexes per cycle Aluminium and iron housings that use 12,000 rpm on a 50-taper spindle Hydraulic fixture setups, with the optional table center-through fixture line Tombstone loads up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on a 630 × 630 mm pallet Pallet-pool cells using the linear pallet system or MPS

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What changed on the NHP 6300 2ND compared with the NHP 6300?

In the spec tables, standard spindle speed is 12,000 rpm against 10,000 rpm on the NHP 6300, and power is 45 kW against 30 kW (40 hp). Travels, rapids, table load, tool capacity and weight are the same. DN Solutions also lists generation changes: ball-screw shaft-core and nut cooling as standard, a 3-point leveling system, standard chip disposal via center-through and shorter tool-change and table indexing times.

02 How much faster is the NHP 6300 2ND in non-cutting time?

DN Solutions states that acceleration and deceleration performance improved by 20%, spindle acceleration and deceleration time was shortened by 15%, table indexing time was reduced by 35% and tool-change time was reduced by 30%. The published figures give no absolute times, so ask for the tool-to-tool, chip-to-chip and indexing times in seconds when comparing with another machine.

03 What is the spindle specification of the NHP 6300 2ND?

An ISO 50 spindle with a standard top speed of 12,000 rpm, 45 kW of power and 600 N·m of torque. Options listed are 15,000 rpm and 809 N·m. DN Solutions' table for this model gives metric figures only for power and torque.

04 What does ball-screw shaft-core and nut cooling do?

It carries heat away from the ball screws and their nuts, the parts that warm up most under the fast, repeated axis moves of a 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) machine. DN Solutions lists it as standard on the NHP 6300 2ND and connects it to maintaining machine precision and improving performance.

05 How large and heavy is the NHP 6300 2ND?

The listed dimensions are 6,850 × 3,775 × 3,540 mm (270 × 149 × 139 in) as length, width and height, and the machine weighs 18,000 kg (39,683 lb). DN Solutions states a 13% reduction in layout for this generation; plan from the dimensions in the table and the layout drawing.
