Soraluce America presents the KB-150-WR horizontal boring machine. This machine is a T-Type machine that gives customers access to maximum efficiency for multi-face machining of large work pieces. The KB-150-WR horizontal boring machine is a robust, precision solution that changes the game in milling and boring by providing an efficient and durable state-of-the-art machine that can meet a wide assortment of machining requirements, according to the company.

The combination of top quality cast iron elements, linear roller guide ways with a hydrostatic dampening system provides high dynamics that improve the machine's performance. The quill's exceptional thermal stability is due to three complete cooling systems for the bearings, the gearbox and the spindle motor.

The highly rigid quill spindle is mounted in large angular contact bearings that are lubricated with an air-oil system. This spindle design is matched to an oversized ram to provide for efficient machining in extended reach applications. In addition, the machine undergoes specific reliability and precision testing, pursuant to SORALUCE'S demanding standards.

This machine offers high performance with 787 ipm rapid rates, high axis feed forces, a 5.9" quill with 31.5" of travel, and a large ram with 40" of stroke. All of these combine to provide heavy stock removal capacity with high rigidity.
