Tornos GT-26

What the maker publishes about the current Tornos GT-26

The Swiss GT 26 from Tornos is a Swiss-type lathe, and its page caps bar diameter at 25.4 mm. Its two independent tool systems run on 6 linear axes plus 2 C axes, and the specification block counts 40 tool positions, 14 of them for rotating tools. The guide bush can stay in or come out: Tornos puts that conversion at less than 15 minutes. The rear platten takes modular tooling that can house several kinds of device, and Tornos names polygon cutting, an angled milling head and thread whirling among the devices this lathe accepts. Besides its modular main operation positions, the lathe can take two drills for deep boring on the carriage of its counter spindle.
