The GX series features a two-spindle concept designed for maximum productivity with minimized idle and setup times. The 260GX features twist control and polish grinding for mirror-like surfaces on workpieces.

With the Gleason “First Part Cycle,” operators actuate a fully automatic workflow from setup to grinding of the first workpiece. The machine features the company’s integrated automation system and the ability to interface with Gleason GMS machines via QR code.
