Machine Specs

The C 600 Series vertical machining centers developed by Hermle completes the successful C800 series downwards. It is designed for machining from small to medium workpieces and it does not only cover the traditional tool and mold manufacturing with three discrete configurations (vertical, production and universal), but represents with its design a new type of machine that combines the universality of the well-known universal machine with the productive characteristics of a vertical machining center.

Design Principle

• Modified gantry design;
• Tool travel in 3 axes, component independent dynamics, ideal condition for rapid movement and feeds up to 35m/min (1378" per minute).
• Mineral casting for the machine base;
• Guideways and drives outside the working area;
• Compact structure, thus minimum space requirement;
• Machine can be transported completely assembled;
• No foundation required for the installation (3-point supported);
• High rigidity;
• Good static and dynamic properties;
• High positioning and long term accuracy;
• Short positioning times with acceleration of 5 meters per second squared.

Mineral Casting Design

• Mineral casting has excellent vibration dampening properties, low thermal conductivity and is not hygroscopic;
• Casting of highest accuracy;
• Optimum surface finish;
• Ecological manufacturing and disposal of mineral casting.

Features

• Traverse X-Y-Z, 23.6 x 13.8 x 17.7 inches;
• Full power of 9 kW already available at 950 rpm (at 40% duty cycle);
• Speed range from 20 to 12,000 rpm for a variety of applications;
• speed range to 36,000 rpm optional;
• Rapid traverse of 30m/min. (1181" per minute) for all axes to reduce non-productive time;
• Tool changer with 30 magazine tool positions and chip to chip time of 5 seconds;
• Pallet table with clamping surfaces of 26" x 14.6" each (radiused edges);
• Maximum load capacity of the table 220 pounds each on a radius of 285 mm;
• Change over time 4 seconds;
• Large window placed in the middle of the pallet table;
• Ergonomical control panel, movable from the operating position to the tool loading position;
• Pivotable protection doors for the easy access to the loading and working area.
• Heidenhain TNC 430 Control Technology.
