2007 HERMLE C30U VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2007 Hermle C30U is a 5-axis vertical machining center from Berthold Hermle AG, built on the C30U trunnion-table platform for simultaneous 5-axis contouring of complex medium-size workpieces. The machine features a 24.8-inch diameter swiveling rotary table, enabling full 5-axis access to intricate geometries in a single setup. The work envelope spans 25.6 inches in X, 23.6 inches in Y, and 19.7 inches in Z. The high-speed spindle delivers up to 18,000 RPM with approximately 20 HP continuous, providing productive material removal in aluminum, titanium, steel, and Inconel. The Heidenhain iTNC 530 CNC control provides full simultaneous 5-axis contouring, high-speed machining cycles, and comprehensive tool management for complex aerospace, medical, and precision die-mold programs. Hermle's trunnion-table architecture keeps the workpiece centered within the rotational envelope, preserving structural rigidity and positional accuracy during simultaneous 5-axis cuts—a design characteristic that has made Hermle machines highly regarded in precision production environments worldwide. The machine's cast-iron structure, precision spindle bearing systems, and thermal compensation provisions support micron-level tolerances across extended production runs. Automation provisions support pallet changers and robotic loading for unattended production. At approximately 20,944 pounds, the C30U represents Hermle's proven mid-size simultaneous 5-axis capability, with a strong track record in aerospace, medical implant, and precision engineering manufacturing.
