Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from Enshu. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Enshu JE80 is a large horizontal machining center: the listed figures give an 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) pallet, travels of 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in X and 900 mm (35.4 in) in Y and Z, and a BT-50 spindle listed at 22 kW (30 hp) and 8,000 RPM standard. Enshu's current product pages do not show this model, so treat the figures as a guide and check them against the documentation of the machine in front of you.

On those figures the JE80 is a machine for big, heavy parts. The maximum workpiece is 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in diameter and 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in height, at up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). Table indexing is in 1-degree increments with a hydraulic clamp, which covers multi-face work on a tombstone or a box-type part but not continuous rotary contouring.

A BT-50 taper with 22 kW (30 hp) and 8,000 RPM points to steel and iron more than to high-speed aluminium work. Through-spindle coolant is listed as standard at 70 bar (1,015 psi), useful for deep drilling and boring. The magazine holds 60 tools as standard, with up to 120 optional, and the pallet change time is given as under 20 sec. Rapid traverse is 40 m/min (1,575 ipm). The control is listed as Fanuc 31i-B5.

Machine weight is approximately 20,000 kg (44,092 lb), so foundation and rigging need planning. Anyone looking at a used JE80 should confirm the spindle, the magazine size and the coolant system actually fitted.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) pallet with a listed 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) maximum workpiece weight
Listed travels of 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in X and 900 mm (35.4 in) in Y and Z
Through-spindle coolant listed as standard at 70 bar (1,015 psi)
60 tools standard, with up to 120 optional
Pallet change time listed as under 20 sec

Limitations

The 8,000 RPM spindle limits small-tool and high-speed aluminium work
The table indexes in 1-degree increments, so continuous rotary contouring is not covered
Approx. 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) of machine weight calls for foundation and rigging planning
Not shown on Enshu's current product pages, so figures should be confirmed against the machine's own documentation

Best For

Large steel and cast iron parts up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) Multi-face machining on tombstones with 1-degree indexing Deep drilling and boring with 70 bar (1,015 psi) through-spindle coolant

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What size workpiece does the JE80 take?

The listed maximum workpiece is 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in diameter by 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in height, with a maximum weight of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). The pallet is 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in). The weight limit includes the fixture.

02 What are the travels of the JE80?

The listed travels are 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in X, 900 mm (35.4 in) in Y and 900 mm (35.4 in) in Z. Rapid traverse is listed at 40 m/min (1,575 ipm).

03 What spindle does the JE80 have?

The listed spindle is a BT-50 taper with 22 kW (30 hp) and 8,000 RPM as standard. Through-spindle coolant at 70 bar (1,015 psi) is listed as standard. No torque figure is given, so check the builder's documentation for the specific machine.

04 Can the JE80 table do continuous rotary machining?

Not on the listed figures. Table indexing is given as 1-degree increments with a hydraulic clamp, which positions the part face by face and locks it for cutting. Contouring that needs the table to turn while the tool is in the cut is outside what that describes.
