Turning center is designed for rugged applications

Romi's G30 M HT is a rugged turning center designed for taking heavy cuts in difficult-to-machine materials. Conversational programming makes it adept at mixed-volume, short-run production as well as dedicated high-volume applications. With a swing of 22.8 in., a maximum turning diameter of 12.6 in., and a cutting length of 40.15 in., the rigid, heavy-duty, high-torque G30 M HT combines heavy stock removal with milling and drilling in a large machine package. Rapid traverse rates of 708 imp (X axis) and 945 imp (Z axis) offer accelerated machine cycles while a 12-station, VDI-40 servo driven, bi-directional hydraulically clamped, "no rise" three-piece curvic coupling tool turret helps to reduce down time. Indexing is done in 0.6 seconds, with a full 180° index taking over a second. Indexing accuracy is ± 8 arc sec., and indexing repeatability is ± 2 arc sec. The G30 M HT's 35° slant bed design features a stress-relieved cast one-piece "L" shaped bed, incorporating an oversized V and flat way, ensuring accuracy over the full life of the machine. Sturdy construction provides superior vibration dampening and greater accuracy as well as longer cutting tool life.

Guideway surfaces are Turcitecoated and hand-scraped for precise fitting and slides are moved on Romi-manufactured heat-treated and groundball screws. The screw design uses a double preloaded ball nut to minimize heat and eliminate backlash. Ball screws are directly coupled to the servo-motor and are supported at both ends for faster traverse rates and higher slide thrust.
