How much does the Johnford ST-200DX cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Johnford ST-200DX 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-200DX takes heavy parts five metres long and a metre across. Z travel is 5,050 mm (198.8 in), swing over the cross slide 1,000 mm (39.4 in), and the spindle is the D unit with a 185 mm (7.3 in) bore.
Think of the cutting conditions on such a part. At a diameter near the swing limit, a modest spindle speed already gives a high surface speed, so the 1,000 rpm ceiling is never approached on the large sections; it only matters on small journals. What counts instead is torque at low speed and the stiffness of the supports. The four-speed transmission, the 240 mm (9.4 in) spindle bearing and the Ø200 mm (7.9 in) MT#7 quill are the relevant figures, along with the optional steady rests.
Motor power is 30 / 37 kW (40.2 / 49.6 hp), or 37 / 45 kW (49.6 / 60.3 hp) as an option.
The tailstock travels 4,600 mm (181.1 in). X travel is 520 mm (20.5 in) with a 7 kW servo motor. Bar capacity is 165 mm (6.5 in). The machine weighs 28,700 kg (63,140 lb) and its outside dimensions are 11,267 x 2,685 x 3,258 mm (443.6 x 105.7 x 128.3 in).
