Large Part Roughing to Finishing on One Machine



Doosan Machine Tools America has announced the DHF 8000, an 800 mm twin pallet 5-axis horizontal machining center (HMC) with a nodding head. This HMC was specifically designed for the processing of large, complex parts such as those used in the aerospace, oil field and automotive industries.

The nodding head spindle and rotary table (axis A and B) allow the DHF 8000 to handle a complete range of machining processes from roughing to finishing in a single set-up. This configuration makes quick work of multi-face workpieces and the 5-axis simultaneous machining of complex shapes.

The nodding head spindle rotates through 160° (up/down) and has a maximum speed of 6,000 RPM, with 960 Nm (708 ft-lbs.) of torque. "The Y- and Z-axis are fitted with dual ball screws to provide greater structural stability and accuracy, while the column is designed with high static and dynamic rigidity to provide optimum machining performance," said a company spokesperson.

This scaled-up HMC can easily support workpieces weighing up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lbs.), allowing them to be machined with the same precision as their much smaller counterparts. Its large working area can readily hold parts up to 1,400 mm (55 in.) diameter.

Other performance and precision enhancing elements include:

  • Glass scales for each axis
  • Cooling systems for the spindle and ball screws
  • Center through chip disposal
  • Upgraded waste oil disposal system.

"With its robust design, 800 mm twin pallets, high-speed, built-in precision and minimum footprint, the DHF 8000 is well-suited to higher end large part applications in aerospace, oil field, automotive and other industries," said Jim Shiner, Director of Sales and Marketing at Doosan Machine Tools America.
