Hermle Machine Co.'s latest machining center incorporates the design features that have defined the finest in high precision 5-axis machining in a compact, affordable package.

Heller Machine Tools announced the development of a technically and economically viable feed-out system that uses an additional axis to provide radial feed movement of the tool cutting edge.

The versatile Heller F series HMCs for 5-axis simultaneous machining comes with three high performance spindle options for different cutting conditions and part configurations.

Heller Machine Tools offers a technology for coating cylinder bore surfaces of lightweight automotive aluminum engine crankcases, imparting a durable material, extending engine life, and enhancing performance.

Shrinking batch sizes with larger varieties of parts and rising competitive pressure are increasingly leading to the demand for complete 5-axis machining, milling as well as turning, in a single set-up. To meet these demands HELLER Machine Tools introduced the CP 8000 5-axis milling and turning center.

More machines than ever underscore the aim to respond to the user's operation, not only with options and automation, but increased energy efficiency. The new affordable Heller H 4500 4-axis machining center, a horizontal machine with Heller-produced HSK-A 100 spindle (also available in sk/bt 50 taper) and a 500 x 630mm pallet and 800mm strokes in X, Y & Z aims to do just that.

HELLER Machine Tools introduces the top range of its 4-axis H Series horizontal machining centers, the H 14000.

The complete machining of cylindrical bores from raw part to precise, controllable tolerances in just one setup on its H Series machining center dramatically reduces tooling and machine cost as well as machining times, according to Heller.
