Frequently asked questions
What length and diameter does the Geminis GE-870 take?
According to our data sheet, 4,000 mm between centres, 870 mm swing over bed, 1,100 mm in the gap and 580 mm over the cross slide. The spindle bore is 84 mm in diameter. These capacities suit long shafts and large-diameter parts.
What equipment can be seen in the photos of this unit?
A three-jaw chuck, a four-way toolpost and a tailstock can be seen. There is no visible digital readout or numerical control: the drive is conventional, with levers and handwheels on the headstock and apron, and operation is manual. Contact us if you need to confirm accessories such as steady rests.
What is the difference between swing over bed and swing in gap?
Swing over bed is the maximum diameter that clears the bed, here 870 mm. The gap is a recess in the bed next to the chuck that allows larger parts to be mounted, here up to 1,100 mm, but only over a short length next to the headstock.
