Doosan – Booth S-8100

September 1, 2010

The Lynx 300 turning center features a 20-HP, high-torque motor that provides the power for heavy cuts and the speed to produce near-mirror finishes. Its 10-in. dia., three-jaw power chuck turns 3-in. barstock at speeds up to 3,500 RPM.

The machine’s bed is a one-piece Meehanite® casting, while its heavy ribbing resists twisting and distortion. A 30-degree slant bed maintains a minimal and constant distance between tool tip and guideway. This maximizes rigidity while eliminating distortion under heavy loads, the company reports.

The headstock is mounted on the same plane as the tailstock, and widely spaced linear-motion guideways allow high-speed rapid traverses: 945 IPM on the X axis and 1,181 IPM on the Z axis.

The 12-station turret features an 8.26-in.-dia. curvic coupling and 11,465 lbs. of hydraulic clamp force. This configuration provides high rigidity for superior accuracy and surface finish, long boring bar overhang ratios, and extended tool life, says Doosan.
