Bridgeport will be introducing the all-new GX 1000 B boxway machining center, distinguished by a 24 in. Y-axis travel, as well as standard specifications and performance capabilities. The GX 1000 B VMC includes features such as 40 x 24 in. x 22 in. travel, 17.3 spindle horsepower, a 2-speed gearbox, 20 tool ATC, and Fanuc control. Bridgeport says that the new boxway machine offers excellent rigidity for heavy machining operations and high metal removal rates.
