How much does the Huron DX 350-1500 A cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Huron DX 350-1500 A 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 350-1500 A belongs to a different weight class from the shorter DX 350 lathes. It weighs 10,000 kg (22,046 lb), turns 1,500 mm (59.1 in) in length and 600 mm in diameter, and has a tailstock rated for 1,000 kgf.
The table shows where the extra mass goes. Width grows to 2,820 mm from the 1,950 mm of the DX 350-1000 A, and length to 5,050 mm. The tailstock quill is 130 mm in diameter with a 150 mm stroke. Z travel is 1,700 mm, longer than the 1,500 mm turning length, which gives room to park the turret clear of the tailstock.
Even on the A spindle the tooling is upgraded. Shanks are 32 x 32 mm and boring bars up to 50 mm, on an 8-station turret. The spindle itself is the A2-8 unit with an 80 mm bore, 65 mm bar capacity and 50-2,500 rpm. Siemens power is 15.6/12 kW. Fanuc power is 18.5/15 kW, higher than on the shorter A models.
Accuracy figures relax with length: positioning is 0.015 mm and repeatability 0.007 mm. Swing over the bed is 740 mm, X travel 310 mm and rapid feed 24 m/min. Huron's description of the series, a monoblock 45° slant bed on roller-type guideways, applies here on a larger scale.
