CNC Swiss lathe Swiss GT

5-axis or more40 toolsfor small workpieces

Overview
Swiss GT is a range of Swiss-type automatic lathes designed for efficient production of short and long turned parts. The lineup provides easy access to tool positions and simplified maintenance via automatic lubrication, a swarf tray and a high-volume removable oil pan. Models cover three diameter classes and modular configurations to adapt to varied production needs.

Main advantages

• Ergonomic, modular design
• Operation with or without guide bushing
• Optional B axis to expand capabilities
• Optional simultaneous 5-axis machining
• Modular tooling system on rear platen
• Easy setup and adjustment
• Designed for precision turning of long and short parts

Functional details

• Available models: Swiss GT 13, Swiss GT 26, Swiss GT 32 (also 26B and 32B with B axis)
• Swiss GT 26 and Swiss GT 32 can be configured with up to 40 tool positions (including up to 14 driven tools); Swiss GT 13 supports up to 30 positions (including up to 12 driven tools)
• Y axis available for advanced secondary operations to reduce or avoid reworking
• Optional B axis (on 26B and 32B) provides a modular position accepting either a 4th rotating drilling station or a thread-whirling head
• Modular rear tooling allows flexible configurations for a wide range of parts
