The Hardinge Advantage Hardinge Spindle shown with Collet The Hardinge spindle design is both collet and jaw chuck-ready and does NOT require a spindle adapter. Collet ready spindle only available on GS 42, 51 & 65 models. - Collet seats directly in the Hardinge spindle - Minimum overhang from the spindle bearings assures that spindle accuracy is transferred directly to the workpiece - Maximum rigidity and gripping power is Hardinge Spindle shown with 3-Jaw Chuck transferred to the part - Minimum weight on spindle - Maximum utilization of RPM - Optimum T.I.R. - Gripping force directly over...

Industry’s most reliable motors and drives. Heavy-duty axis motors and drives provide superior machine capability. Environmentally friendly grease lubrication minimizes overall maintenance cost. 12-Station vertical block top plate standard—VDI top plate with or without live tooling is available as an option. Heavy-duty linear roller guideways provide optimum stiffness and rigidity, resulting in heavier cutting capability and longer machine life. Non-contact magnetic spindle encoder eliminates the need for belted encoder, increasing overall reliability. One-degree spindle orient included....

12-Station Vertical Top Plate Standard 12-station vertical block top plate Minimal tool interference Bidirectional turret indexing allows shortest path indexing for reduced non-cut time. The non-lift turret indexing ensures contaminant-free operation—indexing is by a brushless servomotor with positive hydraulic clamping on a 3-piece curvic coupling. The turret pivot (safety shear) feature helps prevent damage to the machine. Coolant is fed through round shank tool holders via turret ports, allowing coolant to be precisely directed to the machining operation. Live tooling is not available....

VDI Top Plate Optional VDI top plate VDI top plate live tooling option Bidirectional indexing of the 12-station VDI-30 turret top plate (VDI-40 on GS 200/66 and GS 250 models) allows shortest path indexing for reduced non-cut time. Easier processing of part families and fewer setups are realized due to the fact there are a large number of tool stations. Fast setup times are possible by using quick-change VDI tool holders. The non-lift turret indexing ensures contaminant-free operation—indexing is by a brushless servomotor with positive hydraulic clamping on a 3-piece curvic coupling. The...

Machine Options Productivity options for enhanced machining performance Live tooling/C-Axis contouring Parts catchers Robust hydraulic tailstocks The 5,000-rpm live tooling option (4,000-rpm on GS 200/66 and GS 250 models) eliminates the need for many secondary milling machine operations, reducing additional part handling and setup cost. All stations of the top plate are live-tool ready with only one station actively driven at one time. Separate servomotors are used for turret indexing and live tool operations. A disc-type hydraulic spindle brake provides positive locking during static...
