HELLER CT 6000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The HELLER CT 6000 is a 5-axis horizontal machining center engineered for precision metalworking operations across diverse applications. Featuring generous travel dimensions of 39.37" on both X and Y axes and 51.181" on the Z axis, the machine accommodates substantial workpieces while maintaining rigidity essential for heavy-duty cutting. The 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,300 mm positioning range facilitates complex multi-axis simultaneous operations, enabling tight positional tolerances of 5 microns as standard. Equipped with 80.5 horsepower and capable of achieving maximum spindle speeds of 8,000 RPM with HSK 100A tool shank compatibility, the CT 6000 delivers substantial cutting forces for machining cast iron, steel, and titanium. The 50-tool automatic tool changer with integrated pallet changer system enables rapid tool changes in approximately 5.9 seconds, minimizing non-productive idle time. The machine employs a 39.37" pallet for secure workpiece clamping, capable of supporting maximum workpiece weights up to 3,080 lbs, with rotary table functionality providing positioning up to 1,000 RPM for turning operations. Control is managed through Siemens CNC technology, offering intuitive programming and real-time diagnostics. The compact footprint of 8050 x 6350 x 4400 mm optimizes shop floor space utilization, particularly beneficial in multi-machine automation environments where spatial efficiency is critical. Direct absolute measuring systems and thermal compensation ensure consistent accuracy throughout extended production runs.
