G-Series vertical machining centers from FlexCNC (Wapakoneta, OH) are ideal for face milling, helical milling, rough milling, drilling, cutting keyways and more of large or long tube, pipe or other parts in a single set-up. The Standard Edition model 20-06 SE boasts a 20 ft x 6 ft bed to machine parts up to 20 ft long. This long open bed, coupled with a movable safety light curtain, allows multiple set-ups so that while the VMC is machining one part, another can be loaded (or offloaded). This dramatically increases productivity of the machine’s uptime. The open design provides unrestricted access that makes loading and unloading easier and faster. The 20-06 SE features a monoblock welded steel frame with high rigidity and a T-slot machine bed. Spindle taper of CT 40 at 6,000 rpm with a max torque capability of 74 ft-lb (with 18 hp upgrade). This proven VMC features a maximum travel rate of 1,200 ipm along the X-axis, 1,000 ipm along the Y-axis and 165 ipm along the Z-axis. Z-axis travel is 19.5 in max. Spindle nose-to-table distance ranges from 5.5 in to 25.0 in.

The 20-06 SE machine runs on 480V and includes mobile light-curtain safety barriers, frame with chip conveyor and T-slotted table, flood coolant pump and tank, and automatic tool calibrator. Its 12 in color touch screen is water-resistant and durable enough to provide years of service. Oversized double-hung precision linear guideways ensure smooth and precise movement on all axes. All moving parts are self-lubricating on all axes. A programmable servo motor drives the spindle, while a ten-compartment automatic tool change ensures capacity for virtually any application. Control on the 20-06 SE is simple yet powerful, with conversational and ISO G- and M-code programming for versatile 3-axis CNC machining along with an optional 4th axis. Equipped with a color touch screen control, 40 GB of program storage and 50 programmable zero points. Programs can be loaded through USB or through an Ethernet connection. Extensive training is provided both in-plant and on-site.

Built in the Wapakoneta factory, the G-series 20-06 SE sells for $258,995. Leadtime for these standard machines is 12 weeks to 16 weeks. Delivery, installation, training, and a two-year warranty are available for $9,500. In addition to standard models, FlexCNC can customize a machine to suit specific parameters, including length and width, raised gantry, open machine bed, and double fourth-axis.
