Entry Level 5-Axis Machine



Hermle has introduced the C 250 as a complement to its existing C 400 unit and offers a way for customers to enter the 5-axis category while still delivering the precision required at demanding levels of machining.

"This series offers the same design and precision 5-axis machining as our double-digit models (C 12, C 22, C 42, C 52 and C 62). The only difference is the equipment variance and the price," Manuel Merkt, Vice President of Operations said.

The C 250 shares the C 400's modified gantry design and mineral-cast machine bed. The precision machining of workpieces weighing up to 300 kg is possible on the NC swiveling rotary table of the 5-axis version.

The traverse path inside the working area is 600 x 550 x 450 mm for a vertical table clearance of 550 mm and a 688 mm door opening, creating conditions for safe and simple crane loading.

Hermle offers additional features for customized and cost-efficient utilization of the C 250 such as additional magazines, various cooling and chip systems, extractors, tool breakage monitoring/measuring and touch probes.

The C 250 provides an integrated tool magazine for 30 tools with the option to incorporate two additional magazines with 50 or 88 additional pockets. The control panel of the C 250 can also pivot from the working area to the tool loading point, thus allowing the operator to directly enter tool data information into the tool table control.

The C 250 comes standard with the Heidenhain TNC 640 and offers the entire scope of programming features provided by this control unit. The control panel has a full color 19" TFT flat-panel monitor and can be optionally equipped with an ergonomically designed control panel for greater operator comfort. A Hermle integrated control unit provides the operator with support for complex milling tasks and the HIMS technology (Hermle Information-Monitoring Software) is also standard with the C 250 along with the Maintenance-Diagnostic System to facilitate efficient diagnostics and status-oriented maintenance in the event of malfunctioning.
