2017 Grob G550 CNC Horizontal Mill

The 2017 Grob G550 CNC Horizontal Machining Center is built to dominate complex machining challenges with simultaneous 5-axis contouring and rigid stability. Equipped with a 17000 RPM HSK63A spindle and Siemens 840D SL control, this G-series platform integrates direct load probing (Renishaw RMP60 and OMP60), Blum laser tool setting, chip flushing, and an advanced through-spindle coolant system—all tailored for demanding aerospace or precision component applications.

Compared to more modest horizontal platforms like the Doosan NHP series, the Grob G550 distinguishes itself with a horizontal spindle orientation through a tunnel concept design, granting unrivaled access to the workpiece. It also features a 60-tool chain-style ATC, dual chip conveyors, and full simultaneous 5-axis interpolation—a superior step up for shops requiring agility in multitasking environments.
