YAMA SEIKI GOODWAY GA-3600 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The YAMA SEIKI GOODWAY GA-3600 is a robust horizontal turning center engineered for high-precision machining of cylindrical components. Featuring a single main spindle with 2,500 RPM capability and 29.50 HP output, this machine accommodates workpieces up to 19.69" in turning diameter with a maximum swing of 23.62". The 15" chuck accepts bar stock up to 4.13" diameter and supports turning lengths of 35.27", making it suitable for diverse production runs. The machine incorporates a 12-station turret tool carrier with simultaneous single-tool cutting capability, complemented by a rotary tool accessory operating at 4,000 RPM with 6 HP for enhanced operational versatility. Equipped with 2-axis CNC control, the GA-3600 delivers rapid traverse rates of 788 IPM across all axes, enabling efficient cycle times. The X-axis provides 10.23" of travel while the Z-axis offers 24.80", facilitating complex turning operations and secondary features. Built on heavy-duty box-way construction with hand-scraped precision components, this turning center delivers exceptional rigidity and thermal stability for interrupted cutting applications. The machine's design prioritizes chip evacuation efficiency and features customizable hydraulic chuck configurations to accommodate various workpiece geometries, making it an economical yet capable solution for production turning operations across automotive, industrial, and precision component manufacturing sectors.
