GURUTZPE BT700 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The GURUTZPE BT700 is a robust horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning operations on large workpieces. Featuring a maximum turning diameter of 53 inches and an extended turning length capacity of 629 inches, this machine accommodates substantial components for heavy-duty production environments. The main spindle incorporates a 24-inch chuck diameter with a maximum swing of 63 inches, delivering 50 horsepower at 600 RPM to handle demanding cutting operations. The machine is equipped with a 12-position turret tool carrier supporting up to 12 turning and 12 rotary tools, enabling efficient tool changes and multi-operation machining capabilities. Its dual-axis configuration (X and Z) provides 33.44 inches of X-axis travel and 40 inches of Z-axis travel, facilitating comprehensive workpiece positioning and complex machining sequences. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds across all axes reach 197 inches per minute, ensuring optimal cycle times and production efficiency. The rigid cast-iron bed construction, typical of GURUTZPE's robust design philosophy, provides superior damping and positioning accuracy essential for precision machining. This machine achieves surface roughness of approximately Ra 0.8 and roundness tolerances near 5 micrometers, making it suitable for applications requiring high-precision finishing alongside heavy-duty stock removal capabilities across diverse manufacturing sectors.
