How much does the Huron K2X 20 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Huron K2X 20 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
Moulds for larger parts need a square table, and the Huron K2X 20 provides one: 1,400 x 1,000 mm, rated for 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), under a portal with 1,200 x 1,000 x 500 mm (47.2 x 39.4 x 19.7 in) of travel. It is the mid-size machine in Huron's three-axis KX line.
Speed is close to that of the smaller K2X 10. Rapids are 50 m/min on X and 60 m/min on Y and Z. The spindle is identical, an 18,000 rpm HSK 63-A unit with 30 kW, 110 Nm and a characteristic speed of 3,400 rpm, so cutting data proven on one machine carry over to the other.
Accuracy is stated as 0.005 mm positioning and 0.003 mm repeatability on X, Y and Z. That is a small step back from the K2X 10 at 0.004 mm and 0.002 mm, which is the expected price of longer axes.
The footprint is nearly square, 5,490 x 5,460 mm with doors open and conveyor, and the machine weighs 14,400 kg (31,746 lb). Huron specifies floor anchoring for the ribbed cast-iron structure. The tool changer has 36 housings for tools up to 90 mm in diameter, 300 mm long and 10 kg. As on the K2X 10, Z stops at 500 mm, so deep cores with long tools need care.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) on a 1,400 x 1,000 mm table
- 1,000 mm of Y travel under a portal, for square mould bases
- Rapids of 60 m/min on Y and Z and 50 m/min on X
- Same 18,000 rpm, 30 kW HSK 63-A spindle as the K2X 10
- Stated repeatability of 0.003 mm
Limitations
- Z travel remains 500 mm despite the larger table
- Nearly square 5,490 x 5,460 mm footprint takes more depth than the K2X 10 at 3,520 mm
- Positioning of 0.005 mm is slightly coarser than the 0.004 mm of the K2X 10
- Spindle torque of 110 Nm is unchanged for a table twice as capable

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table is 1,400 x 1,000 mm (55.1 x 39.4 in) and carries up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). Travels are 1,200 mm in X, 1,000 mm in Y and 500 mm in Z.
02
Huron lists 50 m/min for the X axis and 60 m/min for Y and Z. The K2X 10 reaches 60 m/min on all three, so the only axis that slows down with the bigger machine is X.
03
The KX 30, which has 1,800 x 1,000 x 700 mm travels and a 2,000 x 1,000 mm table rated for 4,000 kg, with the same spindle. Rapids on the KX 30 are lower, at 30 m/min on X and Y and 18 m/min on Z.
04
The automatic tool changer has 36 housings. Maximum tool diameter is 90 mm, maximum tool length 300 mm and maximum tool weight 10 kg (22 lb). The spindle taper is HSK 63-A.
