The Cincinnati Gilbert FLOOR-TYPE CX is a horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. This three-axis machine (expandable to four axes with optional A and B rotary axes) features a robust 1000" x 1000" work table capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 999,999 lbs, making it ideal for large component machining. The horizontal spindle incorporates an ISO #50 taper and delivers 1,510 RPM at full power (20 HP standard, upgradeable to 25 HP), with an optional high-speed configuration reaching 3,030 RPM. The machine provides substantial travel distances: 72" on the X-axis, 29" on the Y-axis (optional 35"), and 48" on the Z-axis (optional 96"), enabling machining of large, complex parts. Feed rates and rapid traverse capabilities reach 200 ipm across all linear axes. The 36-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) enables rapid tool changes in 30 seconds, enhancing productivity and reducing cycle times. Optional features include a pallet changer system with two-pallet capacity and expanded Y and Z-axis travel, allowing for increased flexibility in production environments. The optional B-axis provides 360° continuous rotation capability, while the A-axis offers 100° of travel, enabling multi-directional boring and milling operations. This machine represents a versatile platform for precision boring, drilling, and milling operations on large workpieces in aerospace, energy, and heavy equipment manufacturing sectors.
