The new Heckert H100 compact machining centre is an economical alternative to many large machining centresAt its recent
Technology Days in Chemnitz,
Starrag unveiled its new Heckert H100 compact machining centre to the public for the first time. With a pallet size of 1m, it will replace the previous Heckert HEC 1000 four-axis centre. With the new Heckert H50 to H100 compact machines, Starrag continues the success story of the Heckert HEC series. The new machining centres provide maximum precision, performance, and speed in minimal space while preserving the long-term quality characteristic of Heckert machines.
This also applies to the Heckert H100, which has dimensions of 8,900 x 4,600mm and enables X, Y and Z-axis travels of 1,750 x 1,300 x 1,400mm. As an option, the Y-axis travel can be extended up to 1,400mm, and the Z-axis travel can be extended up to 1,800mm. The displacement circle diameter is 2m.
With a loading weight of 4,000kg, the Heckert H100 is suitable for larg heavy parts that would otherwise have to be machined on a large machining centre. In many respects, the new Heckert H100 compact machine is even better than its predecessor, the HEC 1000. It is easier to automate, thanks to extended clamping hydraulics and simplified interfaces with pallet storage systems and robot cells.
Improved integration into the customer’s infrastructure has also been considered, featuring central connections for technological cold water, cooling lubricant, and data exchange. Additionally, there is a larger selection of spindles. The new Heckert H100 compact machining centre offers tailor-made solutions for highly productive machining, particularly in commercial vehicles and high-precision mechanical engineering.
