How much does the Goodway GLS-200 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Goodway GLS-200 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
An 8 in chuck, Ø65 mm (2.6 in) through the spindle and 4,500 rpm: the Goodway GLS-200 is the larger-bore version of the GLS-150, built on the same linear-guideway slant bed.
The choice between the two comes down to stock size. Both machines have the same 11 kW (15 HP) continuous and 15 kW (20 HP) 30 min. motor, so the GLS-200 gives up top speed, not power, to gain bore. Shops running bar above Ø51 mm (2.0 in), the limit of the GLS-150, need this model. Shops running smaller stock get a higher surface speed from the 6,000 rpm GLS-150.
The working envelope is 210 mm (8.3 in) in X and 520 mm (20.5 in) in Z, with 500 mm (19.7 in) of turning length and a Ø500 mm (19.7 in) swing. Goodway does not print a usable maximum turning diameter for this model: the figure in its table carries a footnote mark with no footnote, so confirm it with the maker.
As delivered, the lathe is a two-axis machine with a 12 or 10-station servo turret. Goodway lists the tailstock as optional, with an MT#4 live center, a Ø70 mm (2.8 in) quill and 290 mm (11.4 in) of base travel. The M variation adds a 12-station live tooling turret (ER25, 10 ~ 4,000 rpm) and C-axis control so that cross holes and flats can be finished in the same setup.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Ø65 mm (2.6 in) bar capacity on the compact GLS-150 bed
- 11 kW (15 HP) continuous and 15 kW (20 HP) 30 min. spindle motor
- Two-speed motor-driven spindle, which Goodway aims at both heavy cutting and precision work
- Live tooling turret and C-axis control are available as the M variation
Limitations
- 4,500 rpm top speed, against 6,000 rpm on the GLS-150
- Z travel is 520 mm (20.5 in) with a single bed length
- Tailstock and live tooling are both options
- The maximum turning diameter in Goodway's table refers to a footnote that the page does not print

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Goodway lists a bar capacity of Ø65 mm (2.6 in) with an 8 in chuck. The GLS-150, which shares the bed and travels, is limited to Ø51 mm (2.0 in) with a 6 in chuck.
02
X-axis travel is 210 mm (8.3 in) and Z-axis travel 520 mm (20.5 in). Maximum turning length is 500 mm (19.7 in) and the swing diameter is Ø500 mm (19.7 in). Both axes run on linear guideways.
03
04
The optional 12-station live tooling turret runs 10 ~ 4,000 rpm and takes ER25 collets. Goodway states that only the tool in the working position rotates and that the turret disk does not lift during indexing.
