How much does the KAPP NILES KX 300 P cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc gear cutting machine in this class — not a quote from KAPP NILES. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The KAPP NILES KX 300 P combines generating grinding and profile grinding on gears up to 350 mm in tip diameter. Its module row is split by process: 0.5 - 8 mm for generating grinding and 0.5 - 10 mm for profile grinding.
That split decides how a given gear will be made. Up to 8 mm module either process is open, and generating grinding is the usual pick for volume parts. Between 8 and 10 mm a gear is in range only as a profile-ground part, normally the slower route, so cycle-time estimates for the coarser gears should assume that process.
Face width is 320 mm and the grinding head swivels ±45 degrees. Maximum workpiece length is 800 mm, with the qualifier that it depends on the loading system. The usable length therefore has to be settled together with the automation, not read off the table alone.
In size the KX 300 P sits above the KX 160, which stops at a 170 mm tip diameter and 4.5 mm module. The KX 500 FLEX above it has the same 0.5 - 8 mm generating range and goes to 500 mm in tip diameter and 12 mm module in profile grinding.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Generating and profile grinding on one machine, at 0.5 - 8 mm and 0.5 - 10 mm module respectively
- 350 mm maximum tip diameter with a 320 mm face width
- Grinding head swivels ±45 degrees
Limitations
- Gears between 8 and 10 mm module can only be profile ground
- The 800 mm maximum workpiece length depends on the loading system chosen
- The published table has no workpiece weight, spindle or control rows

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It depends on the process. KAPP NILES lists 0.5 - 8 mm for generating grinding and 0.5 - 10 mm for profile grinding. A gear above 8 mm module is therefore within the machine's range only when it is profile ground, and nothing above 10 mm fits either process.
02
Up to 800 mm, and KAPP NILES qualifies that figure as depending on the loading system. If long shafts are part of the work, state the longest part when the loading arrangement is specified so that the quoted machine actually accepts it.
03
The KX 500 FLEX, which raises tip diameter from 350 mm to 500 mm and profile grinding from 10 mm to 12 mm module. Generating grinding stays at 0.5 - 8 mm on both, so the larger machine does not extend the generating range.
