INDEX G400 / G420

Product catalog summary
Overview: The INDEX G400 and G420 are advanced turn-mill centers designed for machining large, complex workpieces. They feature a rigid mineral cast bed, high productivity, and flexibility with up to 139 tools and 16 axes.
Machine Concept: Both machines have identical main and counter spindles with a 120 mm diameter clearance and a chuck diameter of up to 400 mm. The G420 includes a motorized milling spindle for 5-axis operations, supporting turning lengths up to 1,600/2,300 mm.
Key Features: These machines offer high thermal and mechanical stability, rapid traverse rates up to 50 m/min, and simultaneous machining with three tool carriers. The design ensures optimal chip flow and customizable chip conveyor placement.
Applications: Suitable for machinery construction, automotive, and aerospace industries, the G400/G420 series supports flexible and efficient production with modular design options.
Components: The machines include powerful spindles, multiple tool carriers, and optional workpiece handling units. The G420's motorized milling spindle supports high-speed operations with HSK-T63 or Capto-C6 tooling systems.
Automation and Efficiency: Integrated automation solutions include 2-axis and 3-axis workpiece handling systems, a modular robot cell (iXcenter), and options for internal handling and bar loading magazines. The cooling concept efficiently dissipates heat, potentially reducing energy costs.
Industry 4.0 Integration: The iXpanel operating concept provides networked production capabilities with an 18.5” touchscreen monitor, supporting Industry 4.0 features like virtual machine simulation and comprehensive technology cycles.
Technical Specifications: The machines offer a spindle speed of up to 3,000 rpm, a drive power of 43 kW, and a torque of 1,000 Nm. The tool magazine can hold up to 115 tools, supporting extensive machining operations.
XZ Turret XYZ Tooling System: Includes a DIN 69880 VDI-40, W-serration with 12/18 live stations, a maximum speed of 5,400 rpm, and a drive power of 10.5 kW. The X slide travel is 185 mm, Y slide travel is +/-70 mm, and Z rapid traverse rate is 40 m/min.
Tool Magazine: The tooling system includes HSK-T63 / Capto-C6 with 58/115 tool magazine locations. The maximum tool weight is 10 kg, with a diameter of 160 mm and a length of 500 mm.
Optional Features: The turret steady rest has a clamping range of 20 - 101 mm or 50 - 131 mm with a chip guard. The workpiece handling unit can handle weights of 25/20 kg and diameters of 120/1,000 mm for shafts and 250/200 mm for flanges.
General Data: Machine dimensions are 5,060 x 3,025 x 3,165 mm, with a long version available at 6,000 mm in length. The weight is 21/26 tons for the short/long version. The connected power is 112 kW, controlled by Siemens S840D sl.
Installation Plan: Includes a turning length of 1,600 mm (extendable to 2,300 mm) with a chip conveyor positioned either left or right. The iXcenter includes a basic cell and pallet module.
Contact Information: Contact details for INDEX-Werke GmbH & Co. KG and its global branches are provided.
