The design of the G350 horizontal machining center provides for five axes productivity and flexibility. The G350 incorporates a slide-mounted spindle module – located to one side of the machine's centerline – that results in a precise and stable Z-axis with twice the tool rigidity of conventional quill feed systems, establishing 0.01mm positional tolerance and 0.005mm positional variation.
Travel is 600mm x 655mm x 675mm. Speeds for the X axis are to 65mpm, Y at 36mpm, and Z at 90mpm. Standard spindle speed is up to 12,000rpm.
Four control options provide versatility to meet application requisites. The G350 includes a 40-pocket tool disc magazine (rack-type magazine for 140/221 tools) to accommodate HSK 63, CAT 40, BT 40 or Big Plus 40-style tools. GROB offers turnkey automation components with pallet changer, pallet pools, robotic handling or gantry system for auto load/unload, delivering 24/7 unattended operation.
