Overview
High-Speed CNC Turning Centers
The GLS-1500 Series is a compact, high-speed CNC turning platform designed for stable, repeatable production. Its low-center-of-gravity 30° slant-bed layout and high-precision linear guideways on the X and Z axes combine rigidity with efficient movement in a footprint of about 4.5 m².
The series provides a maximum swing diameter of Ø560 mm, a maximum turning diameter of Ø390 mm and turning lengths of 330/630 mm. A 6″ big-bore chuck supports Ø51 mm bar capacity.
The two-speed motor-driven main spindle delivers 11/15 kW and reaches 6,000 rpm, supporting both heavy cutting and precision machining. Standard turret configurations are listed with 10 or 12 stations.
Optional live tooling, C-axis, Y-axis and sub-spindle configurations extend the platform to milling, drilling, tapping and back-end machining. The Y-axis provides 105 mm travel (±52.5 mm), while the optional sub-spindle reaches 6,000 rpm on GLS-1500L configurations.

- Optional equipment and final machine configuration should be confirmed in the quotation.
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.
