Capabilities

The Gildemeister Twin 32 is a precision CNC lathe designed for high-efficiency, multi-axis metal machining. Its dual-spindle setup allows simultaneous operations on two workpieces or complex simultaneous turning and boring on a single part, significantly reducing cycle times. With 32mm bar capacity, 24 tool stations (12 per spindle), and 8000 rpm capability, this machine handles detailed components at high speed and accuracy. The Siemens Sinumerik 840D control system is industry-standard and widely supported.

Industries & Uses

This lathe serves automotive suppliers, medical device manufacturers, watchmakers, and general precision engineering shops producing high-volume small to medium-sized parts. It's ideal for businesses making complex turned components—shafts, connectors, fasteners, and threaded parts—where speed and consistency matter. The included bar loader (Iemca Vip 80E) enables semi-automatic feeding, reducing labor and improving throughput.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating this 2003 machine with 39,426 operating hours, request complete maintenance records and spindle repair history—spindles are critical and expensive to rebuild. Inspect both spindles for runout and bearing play. Check turret indexing accuracy, coolant system condition, and whether any major overhauls were performed. Verify the Siemens control operates smoothly; older systems occasionally need software updates. On-site testing of cycle times on your typical parts is essential before committing.
