ROMI GL 170G HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The ROMI GL 170G Horizontal Machining Center is a precision turning center designed for high productivity and flexibility in machining parts from bar stock. It features a robust main spindle capable of handling a maximum turning diameter of 6.690" (170 mm) and a turning length of up to 7.500" (190.5 mm), with a maximum swing over the Z-axis cover of 16.140" (410 mm). The spindle supports a maximum bar diameter of 2.000" (50.8 mm), runs at speeds up to 6,000 RPM, and delivers 15 HP for powerful machining performance. This model includes a gang slide tool carrier with up to 6 tools, enabling efficient tool change and setup. It supports simultaneous cutting with one tool and operates on 2 axes (X and Z), with travels of 18.300" and 15.750" respectively. Both axes offer high rapid traverse and feed rates of 1,414 inches per minute, enhancing cycle times and throughput. The machine integrates advanced features such as linear guides on both axes, hydraulic-operated 3-jaw chucks, a mechanical bar puller, and spindle orientation (M19) for flexible and precise operations. Equipped with a Fanuc 0i-TF Plus CNC controller featuring a 15” touchscreen LED display and integrated safety system, the GL 170G ensures user-friendly programming and high operational reliability. Its construction emphasizes stiffness and precision, suited for medium-sized complex parts requiring fast setups and consistent quality in production environments. The overall footprint of the machine is approximately 122" x 61", with a net weight around 7,055 lbs (3,200 kg), balancing heavy-duty performance with manageable spatial requirements.
