GA Series
GA Series is a heavy-duty slant-bed turning platform built for faster cycles with heavier cuts. It combines super-rigid one-piece box-way construction, high-torque spindles, and a servo-indexing turret, with options for Cf-axis C-axis and live tooling. Note: sub-spindle is not available.
- High-torque spindle power for aggressive, stable heavy cutting
- Box-way rigidity and 20/24 m/min rapids for faster cycles
- Cf-axis + live tooling for drilling/milling in one setup

Overview
Ultra Performance CNC Turning Centers
The GA Series is engineered for heavy-duty turning with superb accuracy, targeting shorter cycle times through heavier cuts and faster machine movements—while retaining the durability Goodway machines are known for. The lineup includes a broad model range (36 models).
At the foundation is a low center-of-gravity, 30° slant wedge bed designed to provide a super rigid base for the headstock, turret, and tailstock—supporting long-term precision under high production loads.
The mechanical structure emphasizes a heavily ribbed one-piece thermally balanced bed and casting, with FEM-optimized reinforcement to increase rigidity versus conventional designs. Slideways use wide, hardened and ground box ways, with Turcite B bonding to minimize wear and maintain accuracy.
For multi-process parts, GA supports a Cf-axis + disk brake C-axis concept and live tooling turret to enable drilling, tapping, and milling without moving the workpiece to another machine. The catalog explicitly notes that sub-spindle is not available on GA series.

Applications
General machining
Mixed prototype and production work across sizes; flexible envelopes and quick changeovers speed setups, reduce handling, and keep output consistent day to day.
Capital goods
Industrial equipment components from plates and frames to precision shafts and housings; scalable platforms and stable processes preserve accuracy over long runs.
Automotive
Tooling and production parts across the supply chain, from fixtures and dies to turned and milled components; repeatable referencing supports surface quality and tight tolerances.
Energy
Pump and valve components, compressor parts, and auxiliary housings; controlled cutting and chip/coolant management help protect tolerances, surface finish, and tool life.
Oil & Gas
Valve bodies, manifolds, housings, and high-integrity flanges; robust machining strategies and chip/coolant control help maintain tolerances in demanding alloys.
Railway
Frames, brackets, axlebox housings, and brake components; rigid machining and effective chip evacuation keep geometry and flatness consistent on large parts.
