Multiprocess
Lathes
millturn multi-process lathes that integrate different machining technologies on a single machine
Range GMi
Constructive Characteristics
Twin drive headstock for a precise "C" axis.
- Double geared motor.
- Two operating modes: milling and turning.
- Maximum precision and dynamic behavior during milling mode through electronic preloading of the master-slave drives
- High precision optical encoder mounted on the main shaft.
- Optional centrally mounted brake for thick cut (positioning accuracy 0.001º).
- Thermally stabilized by circulation of refrigerated oil
Multiprocess column
- X, Y and Z displacements by roller guides.
- Z-axis displacement by electrically preloaded double pinion rack and pinion master and slave.
- Safety brake on vertical axis.
- Hydraulic ram drop compensation system.
- Vertical hydraulic compensation system.
Tailstock with motorized movement controlled from the tailstock itself or by CNC.
- Safety clamping by means of mechanical cylinders with hydraulic unclamping.
- Automatic shank locking system for backlash elimination.
- Cooled bearings.
- Thermally stabilized by refrigerated oil circulation.
Very high rigidity bedplate for precise machining.
- Single bed construction with two different sides.
- Piece side. Prismatic friction guides.
- Multiprocess column side. Roller guides size 55.
- Made of heat-stabilized EN-GJL-300 quality cast iron. Hardened guideways (450 HB).
- No interference of the movement of the guides with the tailstock and steady rests.
Chip evacuation for a clean and tidy workplace.
- Optimized design of chip and coolant evacuation, which allows maintaining the thermal stability of the bed.
- Two chip conveyors on both sides of the workpiece area.
- The machine and bed are designed to recover all the coolant and prevent any leakage to the perimeter of the machine.
Protected operator's cabin next to the machining headstock
- Direct and close visual control of machining operations.
- Quick access to the part for visual inspection, measurements, etc.

What does the range provide?
The GMi mill-turn range of multi-process lathes enables the machining of large, high-value parts in a single setup. The automation of fixture and tool exchange streamlines the process, eliminating unnecessary movements and drastically reducing production time and allowing the reduction of risks associated with the handling of heavy, bulky and high-value parts. The GMi range is distinguished by its ergonomic design, direct visual control over machining operations and outstanding overall stability.
MULTIPROCESS
The wide variety of spindles allows the complete machining of complex and high value-added parts.
PRODUCTIVITY
The automatic change of machining devices and tools, the ability to completely machine the parts in a single setup and the ease of the loading and unloading process, allow great savings in unproductive time.
ERGONOMICS
The machine configuration, based on a flat bed and the position of the operator's cab, allows a direct visual control over the machining operations and a fast and safe access to the workpiece, .
STABILITY
As the lathe is built on a flat, one-piece structure, the center of gravity of the workpiece to be machined is located between the two guides on which the tailstock and steady rests run, giving the assembly extraordinary stability.
Technologies
The automatic change of machining devices and tools allows to perform different machining operations in a more efficient way, avoiding risks due to manipulation of the workpieces.
