Dual-Spindle Gun Drilling Machine
KENT USA will be exhibiting its new dual-spindle, CNC gun drilling machine at IMTS 2026, in the South hall at booth 339444.
Designed for demanding deep-hole applications, the KGD-32 combines a dual-spindle configuration with high-pressure through-tool coolant, counter-rotation, and Fanuc CNC control to deliver precision and productivity for long, straight bores.
Dual-spindle architecture, for higher throughput – The KGD-32 has two servo-driven spindles are spaced 140 mm apart to machine two coaxial holes simultaneously, reducing cycle time on compatible shaft and sleeve components.
Counter-rotation for superior straightness – In operation, the workpiece and drill rotate in opposite directions to create a self-centering effect that helps to maintain bore concentricity to 0.01 mm TIR (or better) over the full drilling depth.
High-pressure through-tool coolant - Up to 10 MPa / 1,450 psi at 200 L/min helps to flush chips continuously from deep bores, supported by 20 µm filtration and automatic chip removal.
Fanuc 0i-TF Plus CNC – The KGD-32 is guided by standard G-code programming, from a globally supported CNC platform, plus components from HIWIN, NSK, Deublin, Siemens, and Schneider.
Built for demanding deep-hole applications
The KGD-32 is a high-productivity option for gun-drilling work in a range of product categories, for example:
