Frequently asked questions
What is a CNC gantry milling machine used for?
The CNC gantry milling machine is used to machine large industrial parts with high precision, especially components that need extensive work area. The Chinelatto lineup covers table sizes from 78.7x59 inches (2000x1500mm) to 157.5x86.6 inches (4000x2200mm), serving large engine blocks, machine bases, metallic structures, industrial molds and custom parts. The CNC FAGOR 8037 control executes pre-defined programs with repetitive precision, eliminating manual skill dependency and ensuring consistency between identical parts.
What part sizes do Chinelatto gantry milling machines handle?
The lineup covers 5 models with different table capacities: the FP - 2000 CM X 1.500 accepts parts up to 78.7x59 inches (2000x1500mm); the FP - 3000 CM X 1.500 and FP - 4000 CM X 1.500 extend the length; and the "2200" suffix models (FP - 3000 CM X 2200 and FP - 4000 CM X 2200) offer extended width. The vertical travel (Z-axis) is 5.9 to 33.5 inches (150 to 850mm) and the table supports heavy loads. Choose the model according to the largest part size your shop needs to machine.
What type of tooling do CNC gantry milling machines accept?
Chinelatto gantry milling machines use tools with ISO 50 cone in the spindle, a robust standard for heavy machining. The system includes tool change via draw-bar and rotation from 100 to 500rpm by gears. This standard allows using end mills, face mills, tool holders and special tools — wide compatibility with the standard tooling of industrial mechanical shops. The spindle power is sized for heavy cuts on steel, cast iron and aluminum.
What is the difference between CNC gantry milling machine and manual gantry milling machine?
The main difference lies in the control: CNC operates with automatic FAGOR 8037 command and joystick handle, executing pre-defined programs with repetitive precision — ideal for series production or complex parts that repeat. Manual depends on operator skill on each axis, being more economical for shops doing unique parts with simple geometry. CNC reduces time per part and rework costs; manual offers lower acquisition and operation cost.
How to request a quote and support for a CNC gantry milling machine?
Contact our technical team informing: typical size of the part you will machine, type of material (steel, cast iron, aluminum), production volume and whether you prefer CNC or manual control. We recommend the gantry milling machine according to your real needs — larger models like FP - 4000 CM X 2200 require more floor space and installed power. We provide complete technical specifications, operational training and spare parts for the entire lineup.
