The flexible and modular-designed horizontal machining centers HEC 1000, HEC 1250, HEC 1600 und HEC 1800 Athletic ensure optimum results in the economic machining of workpieces with an edge length up to 1.900 mm, 2.400 mm, 3.000 mm, 3.300 mm and a maximum weight of 4.000 kg, 5.000 kg, 8.000 kg and 13.000 kg.Due to complete and multi-sided machining in one clamping position, production and processing times are reduced, the machining quality is increased and the logistic costs are lowered.The HEC 1000, HEC 1250, HEC 1600 and HEC 1800 Athletic offers a wide range of working spindle variants, process-optimized solutions for the tool and workpiece handling as well as innovative process control and monitoring systems.The highly flexible modular principle ensures an individually customized solution for single-item, series or large-scale production. Fields of use of the monitoring machining centers are primarily the area of Transport & Industrial Components. The machining centers can be delivered as stand-alone machines, added with pallet storage system or integrated in flexible production systems for unattended production.
