How much does the TOS Kuřim SKDY-E cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the TOS Kuřim SKDY-E 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 SKDY-E — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the TOS Kuřim SKDY-E 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 SKDY-E joins the two largest things in the catalogue: a vertical lathe for workpieces of 80,000 - 320,000 kg (176,367 - 705,467 lb) and a moving gantry with 4,500 - 6,500 mm (177.2 - 255.9 in) of Y travel above it.

Parts of this mass are set up once if at all possible. Moving a three-hundred-ton casing between a lathe and a milling machine costs days and risks the datum. The SKDY-E answers that by turning, milling, drilling and grinding in one clamping, with the plate serving as a rotary axis when it is not a lathe spindle. Tool holders and milling heads are both exchanged automatically.

Capacities follow the E class. Plates are 5,000/6,300/8,000 mm (196.9/248.0/315.0 in), machining diameter 5,600 - 10,000 mm (220.5 - 393.7 in) and machining height 4,000/5,000/6,000 mm (157.5/196.9/236.2 in). The plate turns at 100 - 25 rpm. Cutting force is 100 kN.

The axes are long. X is 6,000 - 11,000 mm (236.2 - 433.1 in), the ram extends 2,500/3,200 mm (98.4/126.0 in) and the cross-rail travels 2,800 - 4,800 mm (110.2 - 189.0 in). Guideways on Z, X, Y and W are all hydrostatic. Ram section is 340 x 340/400 x 400 mm (13.4 x 13.4/15.7 x 15.7 in). Spindle speed and power for milling are not in the SKDY table, so they need to be specified with the heads.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • Workpieces of 80,000 - 320,000 kg (176,367 - 705,467 lb) turned and milled in one clamping
  • Y travel of 4,500 - 6,500 mm (177.2 - 255.9 in)
  • Hydrostatic guideways on Z and on X, Y and W
  • Machining diameter up to 10,000 mm and height of 4,000/5,000/6,000 mm (157.5/196.9/236.2 in)
  • Automatic exchange of tool holders and milling heads

Limitations

  • Plate speed of 100 - 25 rpm
  • No milling spindle speed or power is printed for the model
  • Smallest plate is 5,000 mm; smaller work belongs on the SKDY-D with plates of 3,000/4,000/5,000 mm (118.1/157.5/196.9 in)
  • Foundation, crane and hydrostatic services are left to the project stage

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the capacity of the SKDY-E?

Machining diameter 5,600 - 10,000 mm (220.5 - 393.7 in), machining height 4,000/5,000/6,000 mm (157.5/196.9/236.2 in) and workpiece weight 80,000 - 320,000 kg (176,367 - 705,467 lb), on clamping plates of 5,000/6,300/8,000 mm (196.9/248.0/315.0 in).

02 How does the SKDY-E differ from the SKD-E?

It adds a gantry axis. The SKD-E has no Y row, while this machine lists 4,500 - 6,500 mm (177.2 - 255.9 in) of Y travel. The SKD-E exchanges milling heads semi-automatically; here the exchange is automatic. Plates, heights, weights, speeds and the 100 kN figure are the same in both tables.

03 What are the axis travels of the SKDY-E?

X 6,000 - 11,000 mm (236.2 - 433.1 in), Y 4,500 - 6,500 mm (177.2 - 255.9 in), ram extension in Z 2,500/3,200 mm (98.4/126.0 in) and cross-rail stroke in W 2,800 - 4,800 mm (110.2 - 189.0 in).

04 Is the SKDY-E a lathe or a machining centre?

The catalogue files it under vertical lathes and gives lathe figures: plate diameter, plate rpm and a cutting force in kN. The moving gantry, Y axis and automatic milling head exchange give it a gantry mill's motions. For milling-first work the catalogue's FRUF-C 300-800 lists 100/113 kW (134/152 hp) of drive power.
