Equipped with a T-Rex spindle that delivers 1,918 ft-lb torque or a five-axis high-torque tilt spindle with continuous torque of 856 ft-lb, the Giddings & Lewis HMC 1600 from Fives couples a potent 9,500 lb cutting thrust with excellent stiffness and vibration damping to produce extreme metal removal rates on large parts of hard-to-machine titanium, Inconel, and Carpenter 465 for aerospace, energy and heavy equipment manufacturers. 

Record Machining Rate for Titanium
A Giddings & Lewis HMC 1600 from Fives Machining Systems combined potent cutting thrust with a high-torque T-Rex spindle to achieve the industry’s highest titanium metal removal rate for a single spindle.

Reinventing Industrial Robotics
Lightweight, 6-axis UR5 and UR10 collaborative industrial robot arms from Universal Robots are for shops that thought robots were too expensive, cumbersome, and hard to program and integrate into existing production.

Fast, Powerful, Accurate 5-Axis CNC Machining
The MU-4000V vertical machining center from Okuma America is excellent for 5-axis multi-sided machining of parts for the aerospace and die/mold industries.

Periphery Grinding of Indexable Inserts
The Leo Peri high precision 4-axis grinding center from Agathon Machine Tools grinds the periphery of indexable carbide, cermet, ceramics and CBN inserts at high speeds and peak quality standards.
