Q: How much does the Palmary OCD-45400 cost?

The price estimate for the Palmary OCD-45400 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/palmary-ocd-45400#price; the request is passed to Palmary or an authorised dealer.

Overview

The Palmary OCD-45400 is the longest OCD-45 heavy duty CNC cylindrical grinder: 4,000 mm (157.5 in) between centers, with a table stroke of 4,620 mm (181.9 in). It is the machine Palmary shows in its heavy duty video.

At four metres the proportions of the work change. Swing is Ø450 mm (17.7 in) and maximum grinding diameter Ø420 mm (16.5 in), so the parts are long in relation to their diameter, and the 800 kg (1,764 lb) load rating becomes the practical limit well before the envelope is filled with solid steel. Check part weight first.

A full-length pass of the table at the 10 m/min (394 ipm) rapid rate takes some time, so cycle planning on this model is mostly about minimising table reversals. The wheel can help: Ø510 mm in diameter and up to 125 mm wide, on 11 kW (14.8 hp), it covers a wide band per pass. Table swivel is 0° to 3°.

Installation is the other consideration. The machine weighs 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), needs 30 kVA and carries 230 L (60.8 gal) of coolant plus three 31 L (8.2 gal) oil tanks for wheel spindle lubrication, slide lubrication and hydraulics. Standard equipment follows the series: FANUC CNC controller, hydraulic tailstock, X-axis linear scale, semi-enclosed splash guard and a vibration meter for manual wheel balancing.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

4,000 mm (157.5 in) between centers, the longest in the OCD-45 series
4,620 mm (181.9 in) of table stroke
Wheel up to 125 mm wide on an 11 kW (14.8 hp) spindle
Hydraulic tailstock and X-axis linear scale are standard accessories

Limitations

800 kg (1,764 lb) between centers is modest for a 4,000 mm (157.5 in) part
Table swivel of 0° to 3° and a fixed work spindle head
18,000 kg (39,683 lb) and a very long footprint; the page gives no floor dimensions
