The K25 Difference: Precision, Speed & Swiss-Type Versatility

The K25 is a complete Swiss machining solution, not just a standard lathe. It delivers the extreme accuracy and speed required for complex medical, aerospace, and electronic manufacturing.

⚙️

True 7-Axis Swiss Machining

Simultaneous 7-axis operation handles the most complex small-part geometries. The sliding headstock paired with a fully independent sub-spindle enables complete front and back-part machining in a single chucking.

💎

Premium Motion Components

C3 precision-ground ball screws and H-style linear rails from top-tier Japanese and European manufacturers deliver a flawless ±0.002mm travel deviation and strict JIS standard compliance.

🔄

High-Performance Spindles

A robust 10,000 RPM main spindle and 8,000 RPM sub-spindle provide the rapid, continuous duty cycles required in high-volume, high-production Swiss machining environments.

🏭

Industry-Leading Controls

Powered by the new GSK 988TD dual-core CNC, featuring a 1ms interpolation period, 0.1µm accuracy, and capacity for up to 12 feed axes. Industry-standard Fanuc controls are also available.

📐

Compact Footprint

Maximum Swiss precision in minimum floor space. Fit a heavy-duty, 7-axis production machine into a highly compact 85" × 49" footprint — maximizing your shop's revenue per square foot.

🕐

24/7 Automation

Open architecture seamlessly integrates with the UF-326 servo-driven bar feeder, robotic arm loaders, and vibratory bowl feeders — enabling true unattended, lights-out production.

 

7-Axis Swiss Precision — The K25 Automatic Gang-Style Swiss Lathe

Machine complex geometries in a single setup. The K25's sliding headstock and sub-spindle enable true “done-in-one” Swiss machining — unlocking high-value medical, aerospace, and electronics part families for your shop. The K25 is not just a lathe; it's a fully capable 7-axis Swiss turning center designed for complete part machining in one chucking.

  • Infinite Complexity: 7-axis simultaneous machining produces intricate parts, deep undercuts, and complex contours that conventional CNC lathes can't touch. Live tooling enables milling, drilling, tapping, and cross-work — all in one chucking.
  • “Done-in-One” Swiss Setup: Eliminate secondary handling with a sliding headstock and sub-spindle. Parts come off the K25 complete — reducing setup errors and maximizing throughput.
  • Superior Surface Finish: Servo C-axis with live tooling and sub-micron accuracy delivers exceptional micro-finishes — critical for medical implants, dental abutments, and aerospace components.
  • Accelerated Cycle Times: 32,000 mm/min rapid traverse across all axes, integrated with the UF-326 bar feeder for continuous, unattended production around the clock.

A Swiss-type lathe uses a sliding headstock — the bar stock moves axially through a guide bushing while the tools remain stationary near the cutting zone. This dramatically reduces deflection on long, slender parts, enabling micron-level precision that conventional lathes simply cannot achieve. The K25 takes this further with 7-axis simultaneous machining, a sub-spindle for backwork, and servo-driven live tooling — making it a complete done-in-one production center rather than just a turning machine.

The K25 handles bar stock up to 25 mm (0.98″) in diameter — covering the vast majority of small-part Swiss machining applications in medical, aerospace, and electronics. Despite its full 7-axis capability, the machine occupies a compact 85″ × 49″ footprint and weighs 5,732 lbs, making it easy to fit multiple K25 cells on a typical shop floor without sacrificing production capacity.

Yes. The K25 comes standard with a sub-spindle running up to 8,000 rpm, enabling complete part machining in a single chucking. The sub-spindle picks off the part directly from the main spindle, machines the back face, and ejects the finished component — eliminating secondary operations, reducing handling errors, and dramatically increasing throughput on complex parts.

The K25 is available with the new GSK 988TD dual-core CNC — featuring a 1 ms interpolation period, 0.1 µm accuracy, up to 12 feed axes and 6 spindles, and a color touchscreen interface. Fanuc controls are also available for shops that prefer to standardize on an existing platform. Both options are fully supported by our custom Autodesk Fusion 360 post-processors, and machinists familiar with G-code transition seamlessly to either control.

The K25 excels in any application requiring high precision on small-diameter, long, or complex parts. Primary industries include medical (bone screws, dental abutments, surgical instruments), aerospace & defense (fasteners, hydraulic fittings, sensor housings), automotive (fuel system components, transmission parts), and electronics (connectors, micro-shafts, pins). If your parts are under 25 mm diameter and demand tight tolerances, the K25 is built for them.

Absolutely. The K25 is equipped with a 5 HP servo C-axis main spindle and 1 HP axis motors delivering the torque and rigidity needed to cut stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, and other difficult alloys without chatter. C3 precision-ground ball screws and H-style linear rails maintain ±0.002 mm travel deviation even under aggressive cutting conditions — so you hold tight tolerances on hard materials without sacrificing tool life or surface finish.

Yes. The K25 supports servo-driven radial and axial live tools for milling, drilling, tapping, cross-drilling, and slotting — all within the same chucking as the turning operations. Combined with full C-axis interpolation on both the main and sub-spindle, the K25 functions as a complete Swiss mill-turn center. Complex features like hex flats, cross-holes, and off-center bores are produced in a single automated cycle with no operator intervention.

Absolutely. The K25's open architecture is purpose-built for 24/7 unattended production. It integrates seamlessly with the UF-326 servo-driven bar feeder, robotic arm-loading systems, vibratory bowl feeders, and finished-part catchers — creating a complete Swiss turning cell that runs lights-out from raw bar to finished part with minimal operator intervention.

Every K25 purchase includes hands-on training from our engineering team in Santa Ana, California — the same people who built, configured, and programmed your machine. We cover control operation, G-code programming, tooling setup, and maintenance. Because the GSK 988TD is highly intuitive, most machinists with prior CNC experience are running production parts within their first day. Post-sale, our local SoCal team provides direct phone and remote diagnostic support, and we maintain a massive on-site spare parts inventory for rapid dispatch.
