Overview

Spindle speed is the reason to pick the DN Solutions T 4000 HS. It runs to 24,000 rpm, twice the 12,000 rpm of the standard T 4000, inside the same small tapping-center frame with a 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table.

That speed is useful where tools are small. Cutters of a few millimetres need high rpm to reach a sensible surface speed in aluminium, brass, graphite or plastics, and the 12,000 rpm of the standard T 4000 leaves them running slow. The trade is torque: 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb) from an 11 kW (15 hp) motor. The T 4000 L lists 82.7 N·m (61 ft-lb) and the T 4000 HP 43 N·m (32 ft-lb), which makes the HS the lightest-cutting spindle of the family. Large taps, face mills and big drills in steel are outside its range.

Two more rows come in lower than on the siblings. Rapid traverse is 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) against 56 m/min (2,205 ipm) on the standard T 4000. Table load is 200 kg (441 lb), where the T 4000, T 4000 HP and T 4000 L all list 300 kg (661 lb). Light parts will not notice either, but a fixture plate carrying several vises should be weighed before it goes on.

Travels are listed as 350 mm (14 in) in X, 520 mm (21 in) in Y and 400 mm (16 in) in Z. DN Solutions describes the T series as servo-driven with 21 tools as standard and a Fanuc control; the table for this model states neither the spindle taper nor the tool size limits. The machine weighs 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) and occupies 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in) of floor at a height of 2,380 mm (94 in).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

24,000 rpm spindle, double the 12,000 rpm of the standard T 4000 and the T 4000 L
Same 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table and listed travels as the 12,000 rpm T 4000, so existing fixtures carry over
The T series comes with 21 tools as standard, servo-driven axes and a Fanuc control
3,000 kg (6,614 lb) machine on a 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in) footprint

Limitations

Only 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb) of torque and 11 kW (15 hp); the T 4000 L lists 82.7 N·m (61 ft-lb)
Table load drops to 200 kg (441 lb) from the 300 kg (661 lb) of the T 4000 and T 4000 HP
Rapid traverse of 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) is slower than the 56 m/min (2,205 ipm) of the standard T 4000
The spindle taper and maximum tool dimensions are not stated in the table for this model

Best For

Small-tool milling and drilling that benefits from 24,000 rpm Aluminium, brass, graphite and plastic parts with light cuts Fine engraving and finishing passes on parts within 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) Workpieces and fixtures totalling no more than 200 kg (441 lb)

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How fast is the T 4000 HS spindle compared with the other T 4000 models?

The T 4000 HS is listed at 24,000 rpm. The standard T 4000 is a 12,000 rpm machine with an 18,000 rpm option, and the T 4000 HP and T 4000 L are both listed at 12,000 rpm. Among these four the HS has the highest speed and the lowest torque, 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb).

02 Can the T 4000 HS do rigid tapping and drilling in steel?

Small sizes, yes, within what 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb) and 11 kW (15 hp) allow. Larger taps and drills need torque at low speed, and this spindle has less of it than any sibling in the table: the T 4000 HP lists 43 N·m (32 ft-lb) and the T 4000 L 82.7 N·m (61 ft-lb). For a steel-heavy job mix one of those is the safer choice.

03 Why is the table load lower on the HS?

DN Solutions' table gives 200 kg (441 lb) for the T 4000 HS and 300 kg (661 lb) for the standard T 4000 on a table of the same 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) size. The table does not explain the difference. Treat 200 kg (441 lb) as the limit for part, fixture and any rotary unit together.

04 What are the travels and rapids of the T 4000 HS?

Travels are listed as 350 mm (14 in) in X, 520 mm (21 in) in Y and 400 mm (16 in) in Z. Rapid traverse is 48 m/min (1,890 ipm). The longest stroke appears in the Y row of the table, so confirm the axis layout against the machine drawing when planning a fixture.

05 How big and heavy is the machine?

The footprint is 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in), the height is 2,380 mm (94 in) and the machine weighs 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). Those are the same weight figures the T 4000 HP and T 4000 L carry, so the faster spindle does not change what the floor has to support.
