HECKERT H65 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Heckert H65 is a compact, high-performance horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty 4-axis CNC machining. It features a robust X-axis travel of 33.465 inches, Y-axis travel of 40.158 inches, and Z-axis travel of 39.37 inches, providing ample workspace for diverse machining tasks. The spindle utilizes an HSK-A100 taper, driven by a 60 kW motor delivering 450 Nm torque, enabling high cutting forces ideal for hard metals and carbide tooling. Traverse rates reach up to 80 m/min, while the spindle speed maxes out at 10,000 rpm, supporting both heavy-duty cutting and efficient aluminum machining with an optional motor spindle featuring a 1-second run-up time. The machine accommodates pallets sized 19.685 by 24.803 inches, each capable of handling loads up to 1.5 tonnes, with a fast pallet-change time of 13 seconds, increasing productivity through quick workpiece swaps. Constructed with a thermo-symmetrical structure, the H65 ensures high stability, process reliability, and long-term precision. Tool management includes a flexible tool magazine system supporting tools up to 50 kg, and chip-to-chip time as low as 3.1 seconds for dynamic machining operations. Integrated high-pressure coolant up to 100 liters/min at 80 bar is programmable via M code through the spindle’s center, enhancing chip evacuation and cooling during operations. The machine occupies just 24 m², enabling efficient floor space use without compromising on machining speed or output, which can be up to 30% faster than comparable models and increase production capacity by as much as 80%.
