GS 200 MSY and GS 250 MSY Performance multitasking turning centers offer expanded levels of functionality to address complex parts, resulting in increased throughput and reduced cycle time in a single setup. These rigid multi-axis machines include dual wound spindle motors featuring 30hp (22kW) on the main spindle and 20hp (15kW) on the sub spindle, 10hp (7.5kW) live tooling with C-axis, Y-axis, and spindle orient as standard equipment for complex multitasking operations. Both the main and sub-spindles feature integral wraparound high torque motors designed for optimum thermal stability.
The Hardinge GS MSY machines feature a 30° one-piece cast iron slant bed base, heavy-duty linear roller guideways, and heavy-duty fixed pre-tensioned double-nut ballscrews. Other standard performance-enhancing features include: spindle speeds up to 4,500rpm, spindle torque up to 518ft/lb (700Nm), 8" (200mm) or 10" (250mm) three-jaw chuck, bar capacity up to 3.07" (78mm), 12-station universal VDI 40 top plate, 50psi (3.5bar) through-tool and headwall coolant, chip conveyor interface, and a swing-out Fanuc 18i control.
