G700F

Machining center for frame structure and chassis parts

Thanks to its extra large working area, the G700F is ideal for large structural components and allows machining of parts up to a size of 1,500 x 900 mm.

Furthermore, a narrow bridge ensures the best possible accessibility to the underside of the part for optimal 6-sided machining.

GROB-Spindle Diagnostics (GSD)

GROB spindle diagnostics is a system that automatically monitors the condition of the motorized spindle. Benefits are a prolonged motorized spindle useful life, reduced tool wear and scheduled maintenance.

GROB Chip-in-Spindle Detection System (SiS)

This system is able to detect at an early stage tool clamping faults caused by chips between the plain surface and the spindle nose from 10 μm. So the machining process is optimized and rejects and damage are avoided.
