5 Axis Gantry Machine

The GBX-4240U is a bridge-type 5-axis gantry machining center equipped with a Mepro AC rotary head. The machine provides X/Y/Z linear-axis movement together with ±105° A-axis tilting and ±360° C-axis rotation. It is configured with a 3000 × 4000 mm worktable, 4200/3000/1250 mm X/Y/Z travels, a 54 kW spindle, and HSK-A100 spindle taper.
The machine uses roller linear guideways on the three linear axes. X and Y axes use rack-and-pinion transmission, while the Z axis uses a 6340 ball screw. Siemens CNC control is provided as the standard control configuration.

Product Introduction
 
Product Details
 

The 5 axis gantry machine adopts a bridge-type structure with a box-in-box crossbeam. The Y-axis crossbeam is designed symmetrically around the spindle center, helping reduce the effect of workshop temperature changes on spindle-center displacement.

For the X axis, two precision roller linear guideways are arranged on each side of the machine bed. The integrated X-axis structure is intended to provide stable support during longitudinal movement.

The Y-axis crossbeam uses a box-in-box arrangement. Four heavy-duty roller guideways are installed on the box-type crossbeam to support and guide the ram. Since the spindle center is positioned around the center of the crossbeam and ram structure, the design keeps the spindle center movement relatively small when the ambient temperature changes.

The Z axis is supported by four roller linear guideways and high-rigidity guide blocks. A high-speed, high-precision nitrogen-to-hydraulic counterbalance cylinder is used to support the Z-axis movement.

Product Details
 
1. Mepro A/C 5-Axis Rotary Head

The 5 axis gantry machine is fitted with a Mepro AC rotary head. The A axis has a rotation range of ±105°, while the C axis rotates through ±360°. The maximum A/C speeds are 60/60 rpm.

The torque motor configuration provides maximum torque of 1060 Nm on the A axis and 1350 Nm on the C axis. Rated torque is 700 Nm and 715 Nm respectively. The braking torque is specified as 4000 Nm for both axes.

The rotary head dimensions shown in the supplied drawing include a maximum overall height of approximately 1737.80 mm, with spindle-side dimensions of Ø335 h6 and Ø400.

2. HSK-A100 Spindle

The spindle uses an HSK-A100 taper and has a maximum speed of 10,000 rpm. Rated spindle speed is 2,580 rpm.

The spindle motor is rated at 54 kW. Spindle torque is 200 Nm under S1 operation and 240 Nm under S6 operation.

3. X-Axis Guideway

The X axis uses a linear guideway arrangement, with two precision roller guideways installed on each side of the machine bed. The guideway arrangement provides support for the large X-axis travel of 4200 mm.

The X axis uses Alpha rack-and-pinion transmission, with a rapid traverse speed of 30 m/min.

4. Y-Axis Box-in-Box Structure

The Y-axis crossbeam uses a symmetrical box-in-box structure. The spindle center is positioned around the center of the crossbeam and ram, which helps limit spindle-center displacement caused by changes in ambient temperature.

Four 55-size heavy-duty roller linear guideways are arranged on the box-type crossbeam to support the ram. The Y-axis travel is 3000 mm, with a rapid traverse speed of 30 m/min.

5. Z-Axis Support

The Z axis uses four roller linear guideways and high-rigidity guide blocks to support the spindle head. A nitrogen-to-hydraulic counterbalance cylinder is used to assist the vertical movement.

The Z-axis travel is 1250 mm, with a rapid traverse speed of 20 m/min. The Z axis uses a 6340 ball screw.

Lubrication Module
 

The materials provided for this model do not specify the lubrication method, lubricant grade, oil capacity, lubrication interval, or alarm configuration.

Therefore, these lubrication parameters are not listed here to avoid adding specifications that are not included in the supplied machine documentation.

 

 
Machining Applications
 

The 5-axis configuration is suitable for workpieces that require machining from different tool orientations. The A/C rotary head allows the cutting direction to be changed without relying only on repositioning the workpiece.

Based on the supplied machine configuration, typical operations include:

  • Milling
  • Boring
  • Drilling
  • Rigid tapping
  • Reaming
  • Counterboring
  • Multi-angle machining
  • Simultaneous five-axis machining

The 3000 × 4000 mm worktable and 8000 kg/m² table load capacity are suited to large workpieces within the specified working envelope.

 

 
After-Sales Service
