HARDINGE GS 250 MSY CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This advanced CNC turning center features an 8" chuck size and a 3.07" bar capacity, delivering robust performance for precision metalworking. With a 30 hp main spindle and a maximum speed of 3,500 RPM, it ensures high-efficiency cutting and versatility across a wide range of materials. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 18i-TB CNC control system, supporting up to 5 axes for complex machining operations. The swing over bed is 8.58", allowing a maximum turning diameter of 15" and a center distance of 23.6". Axis travels are 8.58" on X, 4" on Y, and 23.6" on Z, with the B axis (sub spindle) also offering 23.6" of travel. The C axis provides indexing accuracy to 0.001°, enabling precise angular positioning. Rapid traverse rates reach 1,181 ipm on X, Y, and Z axes, maximizing productivity. The spindle nose is A2-8, and the sub spindle features a 6" chuck with an A2-6 nose and a speed of up to 6,000 RPM. The turret capacity is 12 stations, supporting a variety of tooling options. Machine dimensions are 117" x 78" x 72", with a weight of 14,300 pounds, ensuring stability and rigidity during heavy-duty operations. This turning center is ideal for high-precision, multi-axis machining in demanding production environments.
