Product Description & Technical Details
The GMC2017/3017/4017 Gantry Machining Center is designed for high-precision, heavy-duty machining of large and complex parts. Its robust gantry structure with a width of 1700 mm ensures rigidity and stability during operations. The machine offers multiple X-axis travel options (2000 mm, 3000 mm, or 4000 mm), combined with a 1600 mm Y-axis and 800 mm Z-axis stroke, accommodating a wide range of workpiece sizes.
Powered by a belt-driven BT50 spindle operating at 6000 rpm and supported by a 15 kW or 18.5 kW motor with 143 Nm torque, this machine delivers stable performance for demanding cutting tasks. The FANUC 0i MF CNC system provides dependable control, with options for Siemens, Mitsubishi, and Taiwan Syntec CNC systems to meet varied customer requirements.
The machine features a dual chip conveyor system to efficiently evacuate chips and maintain a clean machining environment. Tool management is streamlined with a 24-tool disc magazine as standard, upgradeable to a 40-tool chain magazine, supporting large tooling capacity. The quick 2.5-second tool change time optimizes productivity.
High-precision RGW/H55 linear rails across X, Y, and Z axes ensure tight machining tolerances with positioning accuracy up to 0.02 mm and repeatability as fine as 0.01 mm on the Z-axis. The rapid traverse speeds of 12 m/min (X/Y) and 10 m/min (Z) facilitate swift movements and reduce cycle times.
The worktable size varies by model, ranging from 2000×1400 mm to 4000×1400 mm, with load capacities from 5 to 7 tons, supporting heavy and large workpieces. Machine weights range from approximately 20 to 28 tons, reflecting its heavy-duty construction.
Each unit undergoes rigorous quality assurance, including more than 48 hours of continuous operation tests, laser interferometer verification, and circularity checks. Comprehensive production records guarantee consistent quality and facilitate prompt after-sales service and spare parts supply.
