GX-Series Overview Small Package - 24/7 Production The GX 300 and GX 510 machining centers are designed and built for a production environment. A unique design allows for these machines to literally overlap one another to better utilize valuable floor space and to promote cell manufacturing. The design allows access to only be necessary from the front and back of the machine allowing you to stack these machines side by side. This type of floor plan and machine design is perfect for automation. Add some robots or a gantry system and you can increase your productivity with virtually no labor costs....
