GF Casting Solutions relies on the Hyperturn 65 Powermill G2 and the EMCOTURN E65 CNC turning centre. Thomas Klade, team leader of contract manufacturing, reports on the effective operation of the two Emco machines.

With effect from 1 October 2024, Alexander Steinacher will succeed Horst Rettenbacher as CFO at the long-established Austrian company.

Benchmark in apprentice training: The BMW Group plant in Steyr is a model factory. It produces diesel and petrol engines as well as e-mobility components.

The machine base and the slide geometry of the HYPERTURN 45 G3 have been redesigned to enlarge the working space and accommodate a wider turret clearance to allow the integration of a 16-station tool turret and a larger Y-axis stroke of +/- 40mm. The machine remains compact, and the 72° slant bed perfectly supports the ergonomic requirements and optimal chip flow. What is more, EMCO offers holistic solutions for the automation of machine tools, e.g. “Turn/Mill Assist”, a standardised automation solution and currently the most compact solution for loading and unloading EMCO turning and milling machines.
