Precise and flexible processing of large workpieces

Our gantryLine models can process large, wide and heavy workpieces up to lengths of 5000 mm and widths up to 2000 mm with high precision. Special designs are also available to process wider and longer workpieces. This machine line can be used as a flat grinding machine and with its variety of available features also as a complex CNC manufacturing cell.

The sturdy gantry-style machine design features a modern vibration-free mechanical table drive, linear guideways in all axes, an over-sized spindle drive as well as ball screws and linear scales in vertical and cross axes. These features guarantee that today’s expectations in the precision machining of large surfaces are met for rough machining and high precision machining as well. The gantryLine achieves highest workpiece precision and surface quality.

Modular Design

The modular design of our gantryLine enables the addition of a second universal support (e.g. for tilting grinding spindle).  The universal supports are controlled independently and can be positioned automatically. The programming of both supports allows the complete grinding of a workpiece in the same set-up. Special designs of this model can utilize up to four supports and can be equipped for other machining operations like boring, milling and turning. Different spindles and tools can be stored in an automatic tool changer. CNC indexers, CNC trunnion tables and measuring systems can be integrated as well. Home
