Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY

Q: How much does the Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY cost?

The price estimate for the Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY 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/pinnacle-pk-l210c-dmy#price; the request is passed to Pinnacle or an authorised dealer.

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY 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 Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY combines Pinnacle's larger lathe spindle with driven tools and a Y axis: an A2-8 nose, Ø77 mm (Ø3.0 in) of bar capacity and a 15 / 18.5 kW (20.1 / 24.8 hp) motor in front of a 12-station VDI 30 turret.

It is the heavier-duty of the two MY machines. The PK-L210A/BMY has the A2-6 spindle with Ø65 mm (Ø2.6 in) of bar capacity, 45 - 4,500 rpm and a 20 kVA supply; this model runs 35 - 3,500 rpm and needs 30 kVA. Chucks are listed as 10 in and 12 in. The weight difference is small, 5,600 kg (12,346 lb) here against 5,500 kg (12,125 lb) for the PK-L210A/BMY.

For milling, the turret offers driven tools at an M function speed of 5,000 rpm and a Y axis of 80 mm (3.1 in), ±40 mm. Pinnacle presents the Y axis as a way to do eccentric operations and cut machining time on complex parts. The C axis positions in 0.001 degree steps for drilling at set angular positions. Boring bars up to Ø32 mm (Ø1.3 in) fit the turret.

Turning capacity is Ø330 mm (Ø13.0 in) by 570 mm (22.4 in), under a Ø750 mm (Ø29.5 in) swing over the bed. The spindle has radiation fins and exhaust holes for heat removal, which Pinnacle ties to accuracy and spindle life. A programmable tailstock on an MT4 taper supports longer parts. The machine measures 3.8 x 1.7 x 2.3 m.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How does the PK-L210C/DMY differ from the PK-L210A/BMY?

In the spindle. The PK-L210C/DMY has an A2-8 nose, a Ø88 mm (Ø3.5 in) bore, Ø77 mm (Ø3.0 in) of bar capacity, 15 / 18.5 kW (20.1 / 24.8 hp) and 35 - 3,500 rpm. The PK-L210A/BMY has an A2-6 nose, Ø65 mm (Ø2.6 in) of bar capacity, 11 / 15 kW (14.8 / 20.1 hp) and 45 - 4,500 rpm. Turret, Y axis and travels are the same.

02 What live tooling does the Pinnacle PK-L210C/DMY have?

A VDI 30 live tooling turret with 12 stations, which Pinnacle says offers milling, tapping, drilling and turning. The tool size row reads VDI30 / □20, boring tools go up to Ø32 mm (Ø1.3 in), and the M function speed is 5,000 rpm. Turret index time is 0.14 sec tool to tool.

03 What are the turning dimensions of the PK-L210C/DMY?

Maximum turning diameter is Ø330 mm (Ø13.0 in) and maximum turning length is 570 mm (22.4 in). Swing over the bed is Ø750 mm (Ø29.5 in) and swing over the cross slide is Ø650 mm (Ø25.6 in). X travel is 195 mm (7.7 in) and Z travel is 570 mm (22.4 in).

04 How is spindle heat handled on the PK-L210C/DMY?

Pinnacle describes a radiation fin design and exhaust heat holes on the spindle for heat removal, to ensure accuracy and enhance spindle life. The spindle runs on precision high speed angular ball bearings. Maximum speed is 3,500 rpm.
