Summary

The Emag koepfer k 160 is a CNC horizontal gear hobbing machine designed for the production of gears, pinions, and shafts with a module range of 0.3 to 2.5 mm and a maximum workpiece diameter of 100 mm. Its eight-axis control and advanced hobbing head enable high-speed gear cutting for large batch sizes, supporting both dry and wet machining. Notable features include a MINERALIT polymer concrete base for vibration dampening, slant bed design for effective chip and coolant removal, and capabilities for hobbing, tangential milling of worm gears, and optimized throughput for fast cycle times.
