Dual Spindle CNC Turning Centers
GT-DS2X DUAL SPINDLE LATHE
High-efficiency, twin-spindle CNC turning with independent sliding headstocks. Purpose-built to eliminate secondary operations on parts up to 2" (52 mm) diameter — powered by the advanced 10-axis, dual-channel GSK 988TD CNC control.
The GT-DS2X Difference: Dual-Spindle Speed, Rigidity & Done-in-One Versatility
Built to eliminate multi-setup handling, the GT-DS2X dual-spindle architecture delivers precision, speed, and versatility in one complete system — front and back work finished in a single cycle.
Simultaneous Machining
Twin independently programmable gang tool slides paired with programmable Z-axis sliding headstocks allow simultaneous OD/ID cutting and back-working on both spindles.
45° Slant Bed Casting
A single-piece heavy cast-iron base with a 14" rail span dampens vibration during aggressive cuts, providing extreme rigidity and thermal stability.
Twin 10 HP Spindles
Opposed A2-5 integral spindles run up to 4,500 RPM with hydraulic collet closers and full C-axis orientation down to 0.001° indexing.
GSK 988TD Control
Advanced dual-channel control supporting up to 10 axes and 4 spindles, built on an ARM+DSP dual-core architecture with high-speed GSK-Link bus communication.
Compact Footprint
Pack heavy-duty twin-spindle production into a lean 106" × 65" footprint — maximizing your shop's revenue per square foot.
24/7 Automation
Turnkey ready. Integrates with bar feeders, robotic arm loaders, and vibratory bowl feeders — because both sides are finished in the machine, automating the load runs complete parts lights-out.
Done-in-One Dual-Spindle Turning — The GT-DS2X 10-Axis Gang Tool Lathe
Cut cycle times by eliminating secondary operations. The GT-DS2X turns, bores, mills, and threads both sides of parts up to 2" diameter in one continuous cycle. It is not just a lathe; it's a fully capable 10-axis dual-spindle turning center designed for complete part machining without a second setup.

The GT-DS2X has two spindles on programmable Z-axis sliding headstocks, each with its own independently programmable gang slide. The part is machined on the front side in the first spindle, handed off, and finished on the back side in the second spindle — so a part that would normally need two setups or a second machine comes off complete in one cycle.
Both spindles have an A2-5 spindle nose, a 2.2″ (56 mm) spindle bore and a 2″ (52 mm) bar capacity, with a 6″ chuck and hydraulic collet closer. Each is a 10 HP integral machine spindle running up to 4,500 RPM.
The GT-DS2X runs the GSK 988TD dual-channel CNC control, which supports up to 10 axes and 4 spindles. It uses industry-standard G-code, so machinists who already know Fanuc-style programming pick it up quickly, and it is supported by our custom Autodesk Fusion 360 post-processors.
Yes. Optional servo-driven tool spindles are available as axial, radial or Y-axis modules. Combined with 0.001° C-axis indexing, they let the machine mill, drill, bore, broach, gear hob and tap features in the same cycle as the turning work.
The machine measures 106″ × 65″ (2,700 × 1,670 mm), stands 74″ tall and weighs 7,500 lbs. It requires 20 KVA at 208–240 VAC three-phase. A chip conveyor is optional and can be mounted on the side or the rear to suit your floor layout.
The maximum turning length between spindles is 29.5″ (750 mm), with a 19.6″ swing over the bed and 7″ maximum turning diameter over the carriage. X travel is 20.4″ and Z travel is 15.7″ on each side, with 945 in/min rapids.
Yes. The GT-DS2X can be quoted as a turnkey cell with a vibratory bowl feeder, a robotic arm loader or a bar feeder. Because both sides of the part are finished inside the machine, automating the load is all it takes to run complete parts unattended.
It lists ±0.0001″ positional repeatability and accuracy, ±0.00005″ positional resolution and 0.00005″ spindle runout, built on a single-piece 45° slant casting with auto-lubricated linear rails and ball screws.
