We are leaders in the development of horizontal and multi-process lathes.
10 years studying our machines combined with our customers’ needs have resulted in the new GTi range.
A new range that has been designed under the guidelines of eco-design, a trend that includes environmental aspects during the design and development of the machine and that extends throughout the life cycle.
All the machines of the GTi range have the possibility of carrying 2 or 4 guides (G2 or G4).
Both for machinery manufacturers and for companies that manufacture components for them, the possibility of performing various machining operations on Geminis lathes, ease of use, ergonomics, the quality of results and the reliability of the machines, are essential elements when investing in a productive equipment. In Geminis lathes, a large number of components present in the most diverse industrial equipment are machined: hydraulic cylinders, crane drums, spindles, flanges, shafts, rollers…
The capability of machining long beds in our facilities allows us to control the finishing process of the guides of our machines.
This finish is essential to achieve the quality standards required in shipbuilding, especially in the production of long parts, such as the propeller shafts of ships.
Both the horizontal lathes, and the multiprocess equipment of the Geminis GM range, allow the complex machining required in gas, steam or hydraulic turbines used in power generation, as well as in the different shafts and discs involved in the transformation of wind energy into electricity.
The versatility in machining capabilities through a wide range of devices, the possibility of headstocks with large through holes and the precision of the “C” axis, make Geminis lathes the ideal tools for the production of various components in the oil&gas industry: Valves, drilling elements, pipes, threads…
Thanks to the robustness of its structural elements and the power of its headstocks, Geminis lathes are able to carry out their work for years in the harshest conditions, machining all types of forged or cast rollers for steel rolling or profiling lines.
WE BELIEVE THAT RAILWAYS PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN CONNECTING OUR WORLD.
We specialize in designing and making equipment for railways and are proud to support and assist railway operators, maintenance workshops, manufacturers and other value-chain entities. We work with them to offer customized solutions with very reliable machines to manufacture and maintain rolling stock. Our equipment is specifically designed for machining and reprofiling of wheels, axles and wheelsets.
At GEMINIS we develop solutions for Smart Factories.
Our Smart Machines integrate Industry 4.0 solutions, tapping into the new opportunities offered by the digital era. We bring the Lean Digital Manufacturing concept closer to our customers.
THE PRODUCT IS THE CORE. THE SERVICE, TOO.
Our EXPERT SERVICES offer our customers the most complete package in a THREE-FOLD service.
Customer-centered in your purchase decision.
We make the machines that customers need.
Our engineering area integrates the technical and application engineering departments, working jointly to develop the solution that best satisfies the objectives of quality, OEE availability and profitability required by our customers. The starting point for this team is the customer’s machining and productivity needs, which enable them to configure the technical solution that maximizes the machine OEE. They carry ou machining process studies that bring about results such as operation sequences, recommendations on tools and time studies, allowing customers to optimize their return on investment, reaching the required quality standards.
Services on demand that will foster the start-up of the machine.
Based on the required machining operations, the tolerances and finishes, and on the productivity needs.
We determine the processes to be implemented and dimension the accessories and devices.
We define the processes to be carried out and we dimension the accessories and devices.
We determine the operation sequence that minimises the number of exchanges in order to maximise quality and OEE availability.
We give advice on the tools depending on the desired finish quality or on the required work speed.
We provide a time study that will optimize the machining processes.
We propose a GEMINIS lathe that reaches a maximum balance between the quality requirements, OEE availability and equipment performance.
