Grasping the Working Dynamics of Gantry Machining Centres
Gantry machining centers utilize a specific structure referred to as ‘gantry’ comprising two vertical columns, which hold up a horizontal beam. With this type of construction the spindle of the machine tool can move in several directions, which allows precise techniques of operation. Their constructional configuration allows working under greater stability and rigidity which is fundamental for larger workpieces machining. Equally, the implementation of high technologies in CNC allows work with relatively more automated programming and control processes and increases the productivity of the technology. The capacity of varying the parameters of the technology extends the fields of application of gantry machining centers still further.
