How much does the TOS Kuřim SKD-D cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the TOS Kuřim SKD-D 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.

TOS Kuřim SKD-D — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the TOS Kuřim SKD-D that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from TOS Kuřim or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

The TOS Kuřim SKD-D is a large vertical lathe with a movable cross-rail, built around a clamping plate of 4,000/5,000 mm (157.5/196.9 in) and a maximum machining diameter of 6,000 mm (236.2 in). It takes workpieces of 100,000 kg (220,459 lb).

D is the lighter of the two SKD classes, and the guideway rows show how it is built. The ram's Z axis runs on sliding ways. X and W, the support travel and the cross-rail stroke, run on linear profile guides. The cutting figure, which the catalogue heads "cutting power" and gives in kN, is 40 kN. On the SKD-E every one of those axes is hydrostatic and the figure is 100 kN.

Machining height is 2,000/2,800 mm (78.7/110.2 in). The cross-rail moves 1,500/2,000 mm (59.1/78.7 in) to suit the part, and the ram, 340 x 340 mm (13.4 x 13.4 in) in section, extends 2,000/2,500 mm (78.7/98.4 in). Support travel in X is 3,000 - 6,800 mm (118.1 - 267.7 in), enough for the tool to cross the plate centre and work both inside and outside diameters.

Plate speed is printed as 125 - 60 rpm. It is written from high to low, and the likely reading is that the top speed depends on the plate size ordered; ask which figure goes with which plate. Beyond turning, the maker lists a multifunctional design with milling and grinding function and a ram with a built-in milling spindle as an option. Tool holders are exchanged automatically. Milling heads on the SKD are exchanged semi-automatically, which the SKDY and SKJ lists state as automatic.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • Maximum machining diameter of 6,000 mm (236.2 in) on a 4,000/5,000 mm (157.5/196.9 in) plate
  • Workpiece weight of 100,000 kg (220,459 lb)
  • Plate speed listed as 125 - 60 rpm, the highest of the two SKD classes
  • Milling and grinding functions and an optional ram with built-in milling spindle
  • Linear profile guideways on the X and W axes

Limitations

  • Cutting force of 40 kN against 100 kN on the SKD-E
  • Machining height tops out at 2,800 mm; the SKD-E lists 4,000/5,000/6,000 mm (157.5/196.9/236.2 in)
  • Milling heads are exchanged semi-automatically
  • No Y axis: off-centre milling needs the SKDY-D with its 3,000/5,000 mm (118.1/196.9 in) of Y travel

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What size of workpiece does the SKD-D take?

Up to 6,000 mm (236.2 in) in machining diameter and 2,000/2,800 mm (78.7/110.2 in) in height, at a workpiece weight of 100,000 kg (220,459 lb). The clamping plate is 4,000/5,000 mm (157.5/196.9 in) in diameter.

02 What is the difference between the SKD-D and the SKD-E?

Size and construction. The SKD-E has plates of 5,000/6,300/8,000 mm (196.9/248.0/315.0 in), machines 6,500 - 10,000 mm (255.9 - 393.7 in) and carries 80,000 - 320,000 kg (176,367 - 705,467 lb) on hydrostatic guideways. The D class uses sliding and linear profile guideways and lists 40 kN where the SKD-E lists 100 kN.

03 Can the SKD-D mill as well as turn?

Yes, within limits the catalogue leaves open. The series is described as multifunctional with milling and grinding function, and a ram with a built-in milling spindle is an option. Milling heads are exchanged semi-automatically. There is no Y axis in the SKD table, so milling positions come from the X travel and the rotation of the plate.

04 How fast does the clamping plate of the SKD-D turn?

The row reads 125 - 60 rpm. The catalogue does not explain the descending range. Since the plate comes in two diameters, the probable meaning is a top speed that falls as the plate gets larger, and the quotation should state it.
