Metal Innovations gets a new mill
The Haas 5 Axis GR-512 is a gantry-style mill with 145" x 61" x 35" travels and a powerful 40-taper milling head. Its 10,000-rpm spindle and powerful 15-hp vector drive system provide the power to cut aluminum and other metals. A 20-pocket automatic tool changer is standard. Featuring rigid steel construction, the GR-512 provides a very stable platform for heavy cutting. The machine's 5' x 12' fixed Vacuum table provides plenty of support for large and/or heavy work pieces, and the gantry assembly travels the full length of the table on heavy-duty linear guides for low friction and extreme accuracy. Powerful brushless servomotors and high-pitch ball screws combine to produce rapids up to 2100 ipm for reduced cycle times.
