The Galaxie® gearbox revolutionizes the turret in the new INDEX CNC lathe ABC
In terms of machine concept, working space, footprint, cycle times and cutting quality, the further developed INDEX ABC has all the performance features of the previous version, which has been sold more than 3,000 times. However, the new upper turret has been revolutionized as a result of Galaxie®. It is the reason why the CNC lathe offers versatile new machining options and thus massively expands the range of machinable parts. This jump in performance was enabled because the INDEX engineers, in collaboration with the experts from WITTENSTEIN galaxie, succeeded in replacing the previous turret technology of rigid Hirth gearing and hydraulic clamping device with a single high-performance gearbox: the compact Galaxie® GS 190 from the new Galaxie® accuracy line with an optimized, integrated bearing concept for the best possible rest values.
