Ganesh GEN TURN 32-GT

Q: How much does the Ganesh GEN TURN 32-GT cost?

The price estimate for the Ganesh GEN TURN 32-GT is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/ganesh-gen-turn-32-gt#price; the request is passed to Ganesh or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Ganesh GEN TURN 32-GT that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The GEN TURN 32-GT is a slant-bed gang-tool lathe that Expand Machinery describes as a 2 or 3-axis machine: a 6,000 rpm A2-5 spindle, 1-1/4 in (32 mm) of bar capacity and a tool plate instead of a turret as the base configuration. X travel is 8.46 in (215 mm) and Z travel 5.98 in (152 mm), so this is a machine for short parts made from bar or from small chucked blanks.

The turning envelope is given as 7.87 in in diameter and 5.5 in (140 mm) in length, with 12.59 in (320 mm) of swing over the bedways. Gang tooling keeps chip-to-chip time short because the slide only has to move to the next tool, and with 787 ipm (20 m/min) rapids on X and Z those moves are brief. The cost of that speed is tool count. Everything has to fit on the plate and clear the part, which is why X travel matters more here than on a turret lathe.

The spindle motor is 7.5 HP (5.5 kW) with 26 ft-lb (35 Nm) of torque through a belt drive, and a 10 HP (7.5 kW) motor is optional. Box ways coated with Turcite carry both axes on a 20° slant bed. Listed positioning accuracy is ±0.00015 in (±0.004 mm), with repeatability of ±0.00008 in (±0.002 mm).

A parts catcher is standard. Live tooling and an 8-station turret are listed as options, so a buyer who needs cross drilling or more tool stations should confirm what the quoted machine includes. At 4,850 lb (2,200 kg) and a 10 kVA connected load it is easy to place on most shop floors. The GEN TURN 52-GTS takes 2.047 in (52 mm) bar and adds a second spindle.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

6,000 rpm A2-5 spindle with 1-1/4 in (32 mm) bar capacity and a 34 mm spindle bore
Gang-tool layout with 787 ipm (20 m/min) rapids on X and Z keeps tool-to-tool moves short
Box ways with Turcite coating and pressure lubrication on a 20° slant bed
Listed repeatability of ±0.00008 in (±0.002 mm) on X and Z
Parts catcher is standard

Limitations

Z travel is 5.98 in (152 mm) and maximum turning length 5.5 in (140 mm), so long parts are out
Live tooling and the 8-station turret are options, not part of the base machine
Base spindle motor is 7.5 HP (5.5 kW) with 26 ft-lb (35 Nm); the 10 HP (7.5 kW) motor is an option
Maximum tapping spindle speed is 2,000 rpm

Best For

Short turned parts from bar up to 1-1/4 in (32 mm) Second-operation chucking work within 7.87 in diameter High-volume jobs where gang tooling shortens tool changes Floors with limited load capacity: the machine weighs 4,850 lb (2,200 kg)

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What bar size does the GEN TURN 32-GT take?

Bar capacity is 1-1/4 in (32 mm) through an A2-5 spindle nose, and the spindle bore is listed as 34 mm. Chucked work can be turned up to 7.87 in in diameter and 5.5 in (140 mm) long, with 12.59 in (320 mm) of swing over the bedways.

02 Is the 32-GT a turret lathe or a gang-tool lathe?

It's a gang-tool lathe: tools sit on a tool plate that the cross slide carries past the part. Expand Machinery lists an 8-station turret as an option and also lists live tooling options, so both can be added, but neither is part of the base machine. Turning tools use a 20 mm (3/4 in) square shank.

03 How much spindle power does the GEN TURN 32-GT have?

The standard spindle motor is 7.5 HP (5.5 kW) with 26 ft-lb (35 Nm) of torque, driving the spindle through a belt to 6,000 rpm. A 10 HP (7.5 kW) spindle motor is optional. Tapping is limited to 2,000 rpm.

04 What services does the machine need?

The connected load is 10 kVA at 220 VAC ±5%, 60 Hz, drawing 28 amps. Air is 85 psi at 5 scfm. The coolant tank holds 21 gallons (80 liters) and the machine weighs 4,850 lb (2,200 kg).
