TECHNICAL DATA
The TAURUS Gemini is the most flexible solution for economical and sustainable production, which is currently available on the market.
It combines the enormous stability of a heavy roughing machine with the high dynamics of a finishing machine, paired with the accuracy of a WALDRICH COBURG.
For you, this is the most economical option for investing in the future of your production.
The TAURUS Gemini is always used when large workpieces have to be machined with high precision or when the process requires special machine stability.
This is also the case in the aerospace and die and mold making industries.
You can perform all necessary operations with just one machine: milling, turning* and grinding*.
For extremely precise machining, we offer our accuracy package** which is exactly the right solution.
*only possible with integrated turning table
**optional
Machining Area
With the TAURUS Gemini you invest in a machine concept that flexibly combines several machine types in just one system.
Roughing operations are possible with a power of up to 63 kW at up to 1,500 Nm. For finishing operations, spindle speeds of up to 20,000 rpm and high machine dynamics are available.
All this without compromising on stability, accuracy and availability.
Spindle Unit Changer
With 6 spindle unit storage spaces, the TAURUS Gemini is perfectly equipped for your machining tasks. In combination with up to 120 tools, it covers all your needs.
Compact and protected from contamination, the spindle units can be changed fully automatically within a very short time.
Hydrostatic Guideways
The worldwide proven hydrostatic guideways from WALDRICH COBURG are also used in the dynamic concept of the TAURUS Gemini.
Almost free from friction and wear, with the best damping characteristics and enormous rigidity, you achieve the best machining results over the entire life of the machine.
Our unique guideway system is known worldwide for its durability and stability.

Industry 4.0 Ready
You have the choice between the Siemens 840 D sl or Heidenhain TNC 640 controls, giving you a future oriented setup.
With the UMATI interface you can connect your machine to many other systems.
Mindsphere from Siemens, Connected Machining from Heidenhain or our InPro help you improve your processes and manage your machinery.
The TAURUS Gemini handles all common standards of modern manufacturing.
UMATI
Universal Machine Technology Interface
UMATI stands for the distribution and use of open communication standards in machine and factory construction.
The aim is to provide a data connector to exchange information in a plug & play mode.
Based on the OPC UA interface technology, this is also secure, fast and error-free.
