How much does the EMAG HG 208 DW cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc grinding machine in this class — not a quote from EMAG. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The EMAG HG 208 DW grinds parts up to 200 mm (8 in) in diameter and 600 mm (23.5 in) long, on 380 mm (15 in) of X travel and 800 mm (31.5 in) of Z travel. It sits between the other two HG 208 models in the external grinding range.
It shares the 200 mm (8 in) diameter limit of the HG 208, which reaches 800 mm (31.5 in) part length on 1,600 mm (63 in) of Z and has 360 mm (14 in) of X. The DW halves that Z stroke and accepts shorter parts, and in exchange its cross-slide runs 380 mm (15 in). The HG 208 CD shares that X travel but stops at 100 mm (4 in) diameter and 400 mm (15.5 in) length on 600 mm (23.5 in) of Z, so the DW doubles its diameter capacity.
In practice this is the mid-length choice: flanged shafts and similar parts where diameter matters more than length. Z travel is a third longer than the listed part length, enough for the wheel to run off at both ends of a full-length part.
Only the envelope and travels are listed. Spindle power, wheel size, balancing and accuracy are not in the table, so get them in writing before comparing quotations.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Takes 200 mm (8 in) diameters, the same as the long-Z HG 208
- 380 mm (15 in) of X travel against 360 mm (14 in) on the HG 208
- 800 mm (31.5 in) of Z for parts up to 600 mm (23.5 in) long
- Twice the diameter capacity of the HG 208 CD on the same X stroke
Limitations
- Part length stops at 600 mm (23.5 in), short of the 800 mm (31.5 in) of the HG 208
- No spindle, wheel or accuracy figures are listed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
When parts reach 200 mm (8 in) in diameter but stay within 600 mm (23.5 in) of length. Longer parts, up to 800 mm (31.5 in), need the HG 208 with its 1,600 mm (63 in) Z. Parts within 100 mm (4 in) by 400 mm (15.5 in) also fit the smaller HG 208 CD.
02
380 mm (15 in) of X and 800 mm (31.5 in) of Z. That is the same X as the HG 208 CD and half the 1,600 mm (63 in) Z of the HG 208.
