Real Metal Removal Capability and Precision Machining
Massive Cast Iron Box Way Construction - The 5X-160 machine casting design was CAD designed with FEA (Finite Element Analysis), and computer analyzed with internal structure reinforcement with numerous strategically placed heavy cast ribs to intensify rigidity. The heavy-duty casting and the box way design dampen vibration for superior machining capability for enhanced tool life and fine surface finishes. Slideways are coated with Turcite®-B antifriction material to minimize stick/slip characteristics and to ensure long-term accuracy under demanding cutting conditions.
The machine is constructed of all certified premium Meehanite® castings. The 17.5” wide spacing of the saddle box ways offers the optimal guide ratio for the slideways, further enhancing the performance of the machine. The Ganesh 5X-160 weighs twice as much as most competitive machines in this class for added strength and rigidity for heavy-duty production. Double Anchored Balls Screws - Premium quality ball screws are pre-tensioned and anchored at both ends, and then 100% inspected for parallelism to the axis guideways. The rotational torque of each ballscrew is inspected over the entire length of travel to guarantee a true smooth non-binding alignment to ensure maximum service life and the highest possible machining accuracy. The geometric ball bar test conducted on each machine checks for servo gain synchronization, backlash, lateral play, squareness, and straightness to ensure your machine will perform to our rigid accuracy and performance standards. Laser technology is employed to measure linear and pitch error accuracy and repeatability to ensure high quality standards for machine performance.
High Reliability FAGOR Servo Motors and Drives The premium Fagor 8055i plus control features look ahead capability for high speed machining. Highly accurate Fagor Digital Servo motors in heavy-duty mounts feature the ability to tune the spindle and the axis drives for a perfect dynamic response for exceptional geometric accuracy. Colored Graphic Display, and Tool Life Management. All of this capability is backed by the dependable nationwide 2-year FAGOR warranty.
