The new G150 - Maximum precision and machining performance from the proven GROB G-series modular system

With the newly developed G150, GROB rounds off the bottom end of its universal machining center range. The G150 profits from market dominance in the automotive industry due to the modular G-series system, which has continuously defined the bar for productivity and process safety.

For complex components with highest standards, development of the G150 placed particular emphasis on spatial accuracy to achieve excellent surfaces and the highest form and position tolerances. This improvement is achieved via a groundbreaking calibration concept, an innovative cooling concept for all relevant components and high dynamic axis configuration stability. No compromises were made to the combination of outstanding ergonomics and perfect automation capacity for this. The G150 is optimally positioned for the precision engineering, medical technology, tool and mold manufacture, mechanical engineering and aerospace industries.

Accuracy

Accuracy for machining complex, high-precision components with maximum process reliability was the main focus during development of the G150.

The static accuracy has been further improved by an innovative setup method which brings the proven concept to a new level of basic mechanical accuracy.

Thermal stability is achieved via active cooling of all relevant components, which has been refined over many years, defining a new benchmark.

The dynamic accuracy is important for simultaneous 5-axis movement, for example. Both the speed as well as the accuracy were improved by consistently integrating the drive simulation into the development process from the beginning.

Process Reliability

The machine's warm-up cycle is now individually adapted to the actual situation. The machine detects when production can be started and when to end the warm-up cycle autonomously based on the geometry parameters.
