How much does the Huron DX 200-3 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Huron DX 200-3 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Huron DX 200-3 is a compact two-axis CNC turning centre for short chucking parts. It turns up to 320 mm (12.6 in) in diameter and 320 mm in length, weighs 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) and fits in a space of 2,163 x 1,465 mm.
It is the smallest machine in the DX 200 family and the only one Huron gives a page of its own. The spindle has an A2-5 nose and a 55 mm bore that passes 44 mm bar. Speed range is 50-4,000 rpm. Motor power depends on the control package: 9.8/7.5 kW with Siemens and 11/7.5 kW with Fanuc.
The bed carries a single-piece saddle slanted at 30° and linear-motion guideways. An 8-station bi-directional servo turret indexes in 0.5 sec according to Huron's feature list, and takes 25 x 25 mm shank tools and boring bars up to 40 mm. Both axes rapid at 24 m/min. Cross travel is 175 mm.
A tailstock with a hydraulic quill is part of the specification, with an 85 mm quill, 120 mm of stroke and an adjustable thrust of 300 kgf. For a lathe this short that is a useful extra for the occasional slender part. Positioning is given as 0.007 mm and repeatability as 0.005 mm. Three-point levelling simplifies installation.
