5-axis mill-turn universal machining center
Grob Systems Inc. says its G550T 5-axis mill-turn universal machining center provides the greatest possible positioning flexibility due to the axes' large swivel range (230ﹾ in the A'-axis and 360ﹾ in the B'-axis). A horizontal spindle position permits the longest possible Z-travel path and optimum chip fall, the company adds.

A horizontal spindle position permits the longest possible Z-travel path and optimum chip fall, the company adds.
The machining center can be used in challenging 5-Axis applications, including power skiving capabilities and fir tree mill finishing.
The G550T features a unique arrangement of the three linear axes that minimizes the distance between the guides and the machining point (TCP), providing stability in part production. A tunnel concept permits large components (even in the case of with extremely long tools) to be swiveled and machined within the work area without collision.
The three linear and two rotary axes allow 5-sided machining, 5-axis simultaneous interpolation, as well as GROB TRAORI-turning for precise cutting control.
