Our best estimate for the DMG Mori NHX 5500 is $375,000 - $525,000. This is an estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class, not a quote from DMG Mori; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/dmg-mori-nhx-5500#price; the request is passed to DMG Mori or an authorised dealer.
800 mm (31.5 in) in diameter, 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in height and 1,000 kg (2,204.6 lb). X and Y travel are both 800 mm (31.5 in), so the diameter is fully within X, but the height limit is greater than the Y stroke and a full-height fixture will not be reachable over its whole height.
Rapid traverse is 2,362.2 ipm on X, Y and Z, and the cutting feedrate is listed at the same 2,362.2 ipm. Maximum acceleration is 0.73 G in X, 0.80 G in Y and 0.93 G in Z, which DMG MORI also gives as 23.6 / 25.6 / 29.9 ft/s2.
Stroke in X and Y. The NHX 5500 has 800 mm (31.5 in) on both axes, and the NHX 5000 has 730 mm (28.7 in). Z travel is 880 mm (34.6 in) on both machines, so the two do not differ in how deep a part or fixture they can work.
Two items: high-resolution direct scale feedback, which measures axis position at the slide instead of inferring it from the drive, and a draw-back function for the through-spindle coolant. No positioning accuracy or repeatability figure is given in the listed data, so ask for the acceptance values.
When the part or fixture outgrows the 800 mm (31.5 in) X and Y strokes or the 880 mm (34.6 in) Z. The NHX 6300 has 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in X, 900 mm (35.4 in) in Y and 1,030 mm (40.6 in) in Z.
