As manufacturers look to produce increasingly complex large-diameter components in fewer set ups, the ability to combine turning and milling operations on a single platform is becoming increasingly desirable. However, conventional mill-turn approaches can present certain compromises in the production of heavy cylindrical parts. Fives High Precision Machines (Fives HPM), through its Giddings & Lewis brand, is addressing the challenge from a different direction: by adding five-axis contouring capability to a platform specifically engineered for large-part vertical turning.
