Mastery of the working temperature
Temperature environment is often
subjected to a fluctuation, some time
related to the environment or related
to the equipment itself.
In the interests of maximum
thermal stability GFAC has been
able mastered these fluctuation to
allow ultimate stability whatever
the production rate.
Thermo Control : the system
for unmatched precision under
workshop conditions
The new, sophisticated and unique
system compensates temperature
variations. Temperature stabilization
is achieved by cooling the X, Y and
Z-glass scales and also the Z axis
ball screw with stable temperature
dielectric. The thermal expansion of
the axis systems X, Y and Z made of
cast iron is compensated and absolute
precision is achieved.
Position accuracy : 24 hours test

Perfect positional machining
The positioning when you make very
accurate application is the base of
the so called accurate machine.
But when this accuracy is espected
all along a mass production process,
it’s important to have the control of it.
GFAC is able to master this accuracy
either on one single cavity or on
several cavities offering a powerfull
and productfull tools.
