Romi's GL Turning Centers Feature Built-In Spindle Motors
EMO 2019: The Romi GL series is redesigned to offer more versatility and robustness to challenging turning applications.
The Romi GL series of turning centers has been redesigned to offer more versatility and robustness to challenging turning applications. Each model is equipped with a built-in spindle motor that provides high power levels, high torque at low speeds, and thermal stability.
Four models are available. The T version is equipped with a 12-station turret for fixed tools and a servodriven tailstock. The M version is meant for driven tools. The Y version includes a Y axis with travel ranging to 150 mm (±75 mm), enabling drilling, milling and tapping operations in a single clamping. The S version has a second headstock with built-in motor, allowing machining of both sides of the workpiece.
The S version is equipped with a 19" touchscreen FANUC 32i-B i-HMI control. The T, M and Y versions are equipped with a 15" touchscreen FANUC 0i-TF i-HMI. Other standard features include a monoblock bed designed to absorb vibrations, linear roller guides, a thermal compensation system, hardened and ground ballscrews with pre-loaded nuts, and FANUC AC servomotors and drives.
