HELLER MCI 16.2 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The HELLER MCI 16.2 is a high-performance 4-axis horizontal machining center designed for demanding milling applications. It features a robust construction with a 6-fold pallet pool, enabling efficient workpiece handling and high throughput in production environments. The machine offers generous travel dimensions of 24.803 inches (630 mm) on the X, Y, and Z axes, providing ample workspace for a wide range of part sizes. The CNC control system is powered by Siemens 840D, ensuring precise and reliable operation with advanced programming capabilities. The spindle utilizes an HSK-63A tool holder and delivers a maximum speed of 10,000 rpm, supporting high-speed machining for detailed and accurate results. The tool magazine is equipped with 160 slots, allowing for extensive tooling options and minimizing downtime during complex operations. Linear axes are driven by ball screw drives and feature roller guideways for high feed forces and excellent dynamic rigidity. Direct absolute measuring systems (glass scales) in the linear axes guarantee maximum precision and minimal positioning tolerance. The machine also incorporates a stable YRT bearing in the rotary table, ensuring high process stability and resilience under heavy loads. An integrated facing slide system enables automatic adjustment of actuating tools, ideal for boring contours or facing work. The design emphasizes short chip-to-chip times through fast tool changes and optimized movement sequences, making it suitable for high-volume production. The HELLER MCI 16.2 combines compact overall dimensions with robust spindle bearings and thermal stability, delivering consistent cutting performance and long-term reliability.
