Gantry Milling Machine

The GMC1614 has a gantry width of 1450 mm and an ample working platform area of 1600 × 1200mm; its rated lifting weight exceeds that of the small gantry type and vertical machining centre . The length, width and height in the X-Y-Z directions can reach 1600 mm x 1400 mm x 800 mm; The pass-through distance meets 920 mm (the minimum is 120 mm) requirements. A fixed-beam and gantry configuration helps to minimize deformation of the system with a large load-bearing capacity.

All critical parts, such as the gantry beam, bed frame and columns, are made of high-grade cast iron via a moulding process for subsequent multiple vibration ageing steps to eliminate residual stresses entirely . By optimization with finite-element analysis, a closed-box-type structure has enhanced overall rigidity and vibration-damping properties to reduce vibrations due to heavy cutting . BT40 spindle (optional BT50), preloading C3 grade precision ball screw, and heavy-duty roller linear guide rail; The positioning accuracy is within ±0.008 mm/300 mm range, and the repeatability is better than ±0.005 mm.

Equipped with a 15/18.5-kilowatt large power-high-power spindle-motor that can deliver significant torque; The spindle's operating range is from 40 to 8000 rpm (optional 6000rpm); Supports both heavy-cutting of high-strength materials and high-speed cutting of aluminium alloy. Installed standard with a 24-station disk-type tool magazine (optionally has 30stations); Tool changing is within 2.5-3s; Supports multiple processes continuously operated; Shortens idle Time. It has a spindle that can perform milling, boring, drilling, T-jointing, thread-cutting, etc.; equipped with a right-angle milling head or four axes indexer table to enable multiple angles and five-sided machining.

It is provided with an intuitive CNC device (optionally Syntec, Fanuc, Siemens or GKS), has three axis linkage function, DNC online processing ability, intelligent fault detection function to ease the operator's workload. A self-contained automatic concentrated lubrication system have been configured to extend the lifespan of critical parts and maintain steady operation for 24 hours per day. CE marked product, one-year warranty and an optional two years extension of the replacement part service package.
