2012 Hardinge GX300 CNC Vertical Mill w/ 4th Axis

The 2012 Hardinge GX300 CNC Vertical Mill with 4th Axis brings together compact rigidity and capable power in a tight footprint, ideal for high-precision 3-axis and rotary machining. With a 23.6 inch by 15.8 inch table, 11.8 inch X travel, and 16.9 inch Z travel, it supports midsize workpieces while maintaining accuracy. Its 20 horsepower spindle spins up to 7083 RPM through a CT40 taper, while the integrated rotary axis enhances flexibility in multi-face or contoured work. A 20-tool automatic changer supports varied jobs without tool-swapping interruptions, and the tool setter ensures offset accuracy. The machine is managed by Hardinge’s Fanuc-based CNC and sits solidly at 11000 pounds.

Compared to compact mills such as the Haas TM-2P, the GX300 elevates capability through its built-in 4th axis, greater horsepower, and superior rigidity. Where lighter mills may falter with harder materials or tighter tolerance expectations, the GX300 holds strong with industrial-grade components and reliable Hardinge construction.
