Gantry machine structure
The gantry arrangement provides a stable, open working area for sheet access, groove travel, loading, and unloading planning.
GW Gantry Servo CNC V-Grooving Machine
A gantry-type CNC V-grooving platform for controlled fold preparation, sharp visual lines, and high-finish sheet-metal work.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Prepare the fold before the bend
The GW platform creates programmed V-grooves at defined positions so sheet material can be prepared for controlled bending and appearance-critical forming. The panel, groove layout, residual material, and downstream bend sequence are reviewed together.
- Gantry structure supports accessible loading, unloading, and panel handling
- CNC programs coordinate groove position, sequence, and material-dependent processing
- V-grooving can be planned with the following bending operation and visible surface requirements
REFERENCE FORMAT1,250 × 4,000 mm
SHEET REFERENCE0.6–4 mm
X-AXIS CUT / RETURN40 / 50 m/min
MIN. EDGE DISTANCE8 mm
DETAILED DESIGN & COMPONENTS
A connected process for controlled groove preparation
CNC program path
Programmed axes coordinate groove position, sequence, and travel so the process can be reviewed against the required bend layout.
Tool holder and groove tooling
Tool-holder movement, V-groove geometry, and cutting-tool selection are matched to material, surface condition, residual thickness, and appearance target.
Hold-down and panel support
Clamping and support are planned around panel stiffness, protected finishes, groove path, and stable sheet positioning.
Table surface and alignment
Table condition, panel reference, and alignment method are considered with visible surface protection and repeated position accuracy.
Operator access and safety scope
Loading space, guarding, control access, chip management, and service clearance are coordinated with the factory workflow.
WHY THIS PROCESS
Define the groove around the finished panel
Sharp fold preparation
Review groove depth, residual material, and bend sequence together where a small radius or controlled external line matters.
Panel-led programming
Use drawing dimensions and visible surfaces to organize groove positions, repeat programs, and the subsequent bend process.
Practical production flow
Coordinate loading, panel support, chip handling, and downstream forming rather than treating the groove as an isolated operation.
