Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Johnford ST-100DX 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 Johnford ST-100DX has 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Z travel, 1,200 mm (47.2 in) of swing over the bed and the D spindle with 165 mm (6.5 in) of bar capacity. It weighs 17,200 kg (37,840 lb).
Take a large flanged pipe spool as the example part. The pipe section passes into the 185 mm (7.3 in) bore; the flange, far larger, spins inside the swing. Facing that flange from rim to bore needs cross travel, and 520 mm (20.5 in) is available. Cutting a gasket groove or a raised face at a large radius needs low spindle speed with torque, which the four automatic speeds and 30 / 37 kW (40.2 / 49.6 hp) provide. The 1,000 rpm limit is no handicap at such diameters.
If the spool is long, the far end rests on the tailstock, which travels 2,100 mm (82.7 in) and has a Ø200 mm (7.9 in) quill with MT#7 taper.
The spindle bearing is 240 mm (9.4 in) and the nose A2-15, with a 510 mm (20.1 in) chuck. A geared headstock with a 176 mm (6.9 in) bore and a 37 / 45 kW (49.6 / 60.3 hp) motor are listed alternatives. Outside dimensions are 7,812 x 2,645 x 3,175 mm (307.6 x 104.1 x 125 in).
