GEORG presents the new horizontal machining centers of the series ultraturn MC at this year’s AMB in virtual reality: In the “GEORG-Cinema” visitors will be equipped with 3D glasses which allow them to experience a machine longitude up to 30 m within one`s reach.
GEORG has developed the new machining centers for complete machining of complex workpieces up to 250 t weight and 4,000 mm diameter. Recently, Siemens AG has granted acceptance for the new machining center at the Berlin plant. It processes workpieces with a diameter of up to 4,000 mm and a workpiece length up to 10,000 mm.
Georg has already delivered two other ultraturn MC machining centers which will soon go into operation. The machine GEORG currently assembled at Doosan Skoda in Pilsen / Czech Republic is designed for a workpiece weight up to 140 t with a diameter of up to 3,500 mm and a maximum workpiece length of 12,000 mm.
Jan Ebener, head of sales at GEORG´s machine tool division explains why his customer has opted for the ultraturn MC: “We are the only supplier worldwide who combined turning milling and grinding on one machine for workpieces with truly gigantic dimensions in a conclusively concept. And as in the order from Siemens only we could realize the workpiece measurement on the same machine. “
