Rasoma Machine Tools Now Available in North America from GMTA



A full line of Rasoma machining centers, including vertical turning centers, 4-axis shaft turning centers, end machining, double spindle and various special purpose machining centers with full automation are now available from German Machine Tools of America (GMTA).

Rasoma is a large machine tool builder, based in Döbeln, Germany, that provides contract manufacturing to brands in the global auto industry, as well as its own brands.

Gear machines for milling, hobbing and shaping are available in a variety of configurations and the GMTA application engineering team can assist interested parties to determine the best solution.

Rasoma machining centers offer high rigidity, due to separate X and Z slides plus the machine head is designed as a monoblock with polymer concrete fill. Thermal stability is enhanced by cooled motor spindles and the rapid traverse on these centers ranges up to 60 m/min at high acceleration, with feed and removal speeds to 120 m/min, less than 6 seconds from part to part and turret indexing typically under 1 second.

Full option packages include robotic handling and part articulation, integrated metrology onboard, working inside or outside the work envelope, full tool measurement and monitoring systems and driven tool packages, all controlled by a single Siemens CNC.
