Do you have a Gleason PHOENIX to sell?

We are actively seeking a 1994 Gleason Phoenix Gear Hobbing machine. This model, specifically the 500HC variant, is renowned for its capability to cut spiral bevel and hypoid gears with precision. Equipped with a GE-FANUC 150M computer control, this machine is designed to manage the automatic setup and control of six axes, including the work spindle rotational axis (A), horizontal linear motion of the cutter axis (X), and swinging base of the work-spindle axis (B). With a work spindle capable of rotating from 0 to 67 RPM and a cutter spindle that reaches up to 240 RPM, the 500HC delivers the versatility and efficiency that many shops require for high-quality gear production. The specifications of the Gleason Phoenix include an impressive root angle range from -5º to 90º, which is crucial for producing various gear geometries.

The machine also features a swinging base that operates at 0 to 30 degrees per second, providing additional flexibility in machining operations. The horizontal, vertical, and sliding base axes are all powered by AC servos, ensuring smooth and reliable movement at speeds of up to 80mm/second. With a total weight of approximately 42,500 lbs., this robust machine is built to handle the demands of industrial environments. Sellers often choose to part with their Gleason machines for a variety of reasons. Some may be upgrading to newer models with advanced technology, while others might be downsizing their operations or closing their facilities altogether.
