The GL6-100 is a cylindrical grinding machine from the JTEKT Toyoda GL6 series, classified as a Production Highspeed OD Cylindrical Grinding Machine. It is engineered for dedicated processes in a continuous high-production environment that demands long-term machining accuracy.

This machine is built to set the standard for high-volume production on long, large-diameter components. The GL6-100 achieves superior accuracy and long-term reliability through its sophisticated design, which includes a hydrostatic wheelhead bearing and way system. It also features the patented TOYODA STAT BEARING and floating plate technology, which together ensure highly accurate positioning and exceptional stability during intensive operation. For maximum application flexibility, the machine is available in both plain head and angled head configurations.

The GL6-100 offers significant capacity for medium to long large diameter workpieces. Its key technical specifications are:

• Distance Between Centers: 39.4 inches, 1000 millimeters.
• Swing Over Table: 15.7 inches, 400 millimeters.
• Workpiece Weight Capacity: 660 pounds, 300 kilograms.
• Wheel Surface Speed (Standard): 8860 SFPM 45 meters per second, with an optional high speed capability of 11800 SFPM 60 meters per second.

The GL6-100 is an optimal solution for manufacturers requiring consistent high speed and high-precision grinding on medium to long cylindrical parts with substantial weight and diameter.
