How much does the Johnford ST-200BX cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Johnford ST-200BX 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
Five metres long and a metre across: the Johnford ST-200BX has 5,050 mm (198.8 in) of Z travel and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of swing over the cross slide, with the 2,000 rpm B spindle.
Picking among the three five-metre B-spindle lathes is a matter of one dimension. The ST-200B clears 700 mm (27.6 in) over the cross slide and the ST-200BH 800 mm (31.5 in). The ST-200BX clears 1,000 mm (39.4 in) and has 520 mm (20.5 in) of X travel. Everything on the spindle side is identical, and so are the tailstock quill, the 7 kW axis motors and the rapids of 10 m/min and 12 m/min.
The price of the clearance is in the building, not in the machine. Weight rises only to 28,300 kg (62,260 lb), from 28,100 kg (61,820 lb) on the ST-200B, but the outside dimensions become 11,267 x 2,685 x 3,258 mm (443.6 x 105.7 x 128.3 in).
Spindle: A2-11 nose, 132.5 mm (5.2 in) bore, 116 mm (4.6 in) bar capacity, four automatic speeds, 22 / 26 kW (29.5 / 34.9 hp) or optionally 30 / 37 kW (40.2 / 49.6 hp). Tailstock travel is 4,600 mm (181.1 in).
