INDEX TRAUB G400 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The INDEX TRAUB G400 is a dual-spindle turn-mill center designed for high-performance machining of complex workpieces up to 24 inches in diameter and 78 inches in length. Equipped with two identical main spindles, each rated at 3,500 RPM and 76 HP, the machine delivers 1,000 Nm maximum torque with a 12.4-inch chuck diameter and accommodates bar stock up to 3.54 inches. The system features two turret tool carriers with combined capacity for up to 22 turning tools and 22 rotary tools, enabling simultaneous two-tool cutting operations for enhanced productivity. Primary turrets support both turning and rotary milling at 6,000 RPM with 37 HP, while secondary turrets achieve speeds to 12,000 RPM, providing versatile machining capabilities for drilling, milling, and turning operations. The five-axis CNC architecture incorporates rapid traverse rates of 788 IPM across X, Y, and Z axes, with 12.6 inches and 49.2 inches of travel respectively, ensuring dynamic responsiveness and precision. High thermal and mechanical stability combined with Y-axis stroke capability up to 200 millimeters enables complex cross-drilling and secondary operations without repositioning. The G400 excels in automotive, aerospace, and mechanical engineering applications, supporting integrated workpiece handling units for fully automated production cells. Its modular design accommodates custom automation solutions including robot integration for unmanned operation, making it ideal for high-volume, multi-featured component manufacturing requiring superior accuracy and repeatability.
