GURUTZPE GH Series – Hydrostatic CNC Horizontal Lathes

The GURUTZPE GH Series delivers next-level performance for heavy-duty precision turning. Built with advanced hydrostatic guiding technology and robust structural design, these horizontal lathes are engineered for machining large, complex components with exceptional accuracy, rigidity, and longevity — ideal for energy, aerospace, oil & gas, rail, and industrial sectors.

Hydrostatic Technology for Ultimate Precision

At the heart of the GH Series is a hydrostatic “pump-per-pocket” guiding system that supports both longitudinal and transverse axes. By creating a fluid film between sliding surfaces, this system delivers:

Unmatched rigidity & damping for heavy cuts
Ultra-smooth, vibration-free motion
Exceptional positioning accuracy
Near-zero friction and virtually infinite guide life
Real-world durability under high loads

Hydrostatic guidance is widely regarded as the premium solution for large-capacity CNC lathes — where precision and reliability cannot be compromised.

Built for Massive Parts & High Tonnes

The GH Series can be tailored to your application with two primary configurations:

➤ GHH – Single-Bed Hydrostatic Lathe

Ideal for components up to Ø 3,000 mm
Capacity up to 90 tonnes between centres
Single cast-iron bed with hydrostatic guide carriage
Perfect for precision turning on long shafts and heavy parts

➤ GHD – Double-Bed Hydrostatic Lathe

Designed for the largest workpieces up to Ø 4,000 mm
Capacity up to 200 tonnes between centres
Double cast-iron base for even greater stiffness and stability
Best choice for extremely heavy, high-precision machining tasks

Both variants deliver the rugged performance needed in demanding industrial environments.

Versatile Machining & Smart Features

The GH Series isn’t just a lathe — it’s a fully adaptable machining platform:

Multi-operation capability (turning, milling, grinding, internal machining)
Automated tooling and head change options for productivity
Internal turning anti-vibration bars up to Ø400 mm
Advanced sensorisation and Industry 4.0 real-time monitoring
Multiple steady rests for optimal workpiece support
Integration with ATC / AHC packages for flexible machining workflows

Applications That Demand Precision & Power

These hydrostatic horizontal lathes excel across heavy industrial sectors:

Power generation and turbine components
Oil & gas rotating parts
Railway wheelset and axle machining
Defence and aerospace structural parts
Steelworks and heavy industrial equipment

If the job demands high tonnage machining with tight tolerances, the GH Series delivers.
