The Doosan NHP 8000 is a horizontal machining center (HMC) designed for a powerful combination of heavy duty cutting, high speed machining, and precision across a wide range of applications. Here's a closer look at its features and specifications:

Built for Power and Performance

  • Dual-wound spindle motor: This innovative design generates high torque at low rpm for efficient chip removal during heavy roughing cuts.
  • Large tool taper: The NHP 8000 boasts a CAT50 BIG PLUS taper, accommodating a wider range of tool diameters, lengths, and weights for tackling complex machining jobs.
  • Impressive spindle power: With a 50 hp spindle motor and 310 ft-lbs of torque, this HMC can handle demanding material removal processes.
  • High speed machining: The spindle reaches speeds of up to 10,000 rpm, enabling efficient machining of various materials.

Designed for Accuracy and Efficiency

  • Rigid machine construction: The NHP 8000 is built with FEM-optimized construction to minimize deflection and ensure machining precision.
  • Linear roller motion guides: These guides provide smooth and precise linear motion for accurate tool positioning and high-quality results.
  • Automatic tool changer (ATC): With a tool change time of under 2 seconds (optional 90-tool magazine), the NHP 8000 minimizes non-cutting time and maximizes productivity.
  • Rotary pallet changer: This feature allows for efficient loading and unloading of workpieces, further streamlining the machining process.

Additional Highlights

  • Large work envelope: The NHP 8000 offers a generous work envelope with travels of 1400 mm (X-axis), 1200 mm (Y-axis), and 1370 mm (Z-axis).
  • High table capacity: The machine's table can support workpieces up to 4400 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
  • Thermal distortion correction: This function helps to maintain machining accuracy by compensating for thermal variations within the machine.
  • Scalability: Doosan offers a variety of factory-installed options, including multi-pallet changers, larger tool magazines, and hydraulic fixture units, allowing you to tailor the NHP 8000 to your specific needs.


The Doosan NHP 8000 is a versatile and powerful HMC well-suited for machine shops looking to boost their productivity and precision in heavy duty machining applications. Its robust construction, high performance capabilities, and extensive features make it a valuable asset for any demanding manufacturing environment.
