GROB SYSTEMS, INC. G320 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The GROB G320 is a compact, modular two-spindle horizontal machining center designed for highly flexible manufacturing lines, particularly in the automotive industry. This precision machine features a horizontal spindle orientation with HSK-A63 taper tooling capability and accommodates both single and two-spindle configurations. The machine provides six standard axes with optional expansion to eight axes, delivering exceptional work envelope dimensions of 600mm (X), 655mm (Y), and 685mm (Z) travel. Maximum spindle speeds reach 12,000 rpm with motorized spindle options up to 18,000 rpm, offering power outputs ranging from 29 kW to 40 kW depending on configuration. The rapid traverse rates achieve impressive speeds of 3,543 ipm across all primary axes, enabling efficient cycle times with rapid positioning. Tool change occurs in just 2.30 seconds, supporting quick job transitions and production flexibility. With optional pallet changer availability, the G320 enhances manufacturing throughput for continuous production environments. The machine weighs approximately 17,000-22,000 kg and occupies a compact footprint of roughly 4,000 x 3,100 x 3,100 mm, making it suitable for space-constrained facilities. Controlled by advanced CNC systems such as Indramat or SIEMENS 840D, the G320 combines German engineering precision with modular design principles, enabling simplified maintenance access and process optimization for aluminum and specialty material machining operations.
