Bringing the Best Together for High Performance Machining
It’s football season in America, and if you’re anything like us, you’re spending hours a week watching games and setting your fantasy lineup. We’re all dreaming of more players that have that super-human combination of power, strength, speed, and smarts needed to push your team to victory.
Have you ever dreamt of a machine that had an unreal combination of attributes? One that had the power, strength, speed, and smarts to combine 5-axis milling and turning to make quick work of complicated large parts in aerospace, oil field, and mold and die industries?
The C Series from HELLER is just that machine. Game on.
The ABC’s and 123’s of High Performance Combination Milling & Turning
Before we jump into the amazing attributes of the C Series, let’s get some quick definitions out of the way:
- C: the C in “C Series” stands for “combined,” as in combined milling and turning
- CP: the C Series variant with an integrated pallet changer, ideal for higher volume production runs. We offer four versions of the CP with 500, 630, 800, and 1000 mm pallet options.
- CT: the C Series variant with table loading, great for small batch production runs. We offer two versions of the CT with 630 and 800 mm pallets.
- HSK63T: three high speed spindle options with up to 16,000 RPM
- HSK100T: four high power spindle options with up to 1,146 Nm (845 ft lbs) of torque
- 5th Axis: swivel and tilting head options make quick work of complex parts
- BFD: this machine is a Big Freakin’ Deal that will level up your shop’s capabilities in an instant
Attribute 1: Strength and Power of an Offensive Lineman
The most ambitious cuts, precision surface finishes, and handling of workpieces up to 4,000 kg (8,800 lbs) can’t be done without a rigid machine structure. The C Series merges a machine bed optimized for rigidity and a mass-reduced column to ensure stability for even the most aggressive applications.
The DDT (Direct Drive Turning) rotary table turns huge parts with its spindle motor that delivers up to 6,560 Nm (4,840 ft lbs) of torque. And like all HELLER machines, the C Series is built for precision jobs in production machining environments. This big boy is designed to be continuously in the game and not on the bench.
