GURUTZPE N-2618 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The GURUTZPE N-2618 is a robust horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning and heavy-duty material removal operations on large rotating components. This machine features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 18.170 inches and an impressive turning length capacity of 200 inches, making it ideal for extended shaft and pipe machining applications. The spindle delivers 15 horsepower at 1,000 RPM, providing substantial cutting force for demanding industrial operations. With a maximum swing capability of 35 inches, the N-2618 accommodates large workpieces while maintaining rigid positioning and accuracy. The machine utilizes a slide-type primary tool carrier that enables controlled single-point cutting tool engagement, optimized for heavy interrupted cuts and finishing operations requiring exceptional precision. Operating on two axes, the system provides full X and Z-axis movement, with standard Z-axis travel of 80 inches expandable to 200 inches for extended part lengths. GURUTZPE's characteristic monoblock cast-iron bed construction ensures superior rigidity and vibration damping, critical for achieving the company's renowned surface finish specifications of Ra≈0.8 and roundness tolerances near 5 micrometers. This configuration makes the N-2618 particularly suited for manufacturing shafts, rollers, pipes, and other medium to large industrial components requiring high-precision heavy-duty turning in demanding industrial environments.
