      • HIGH-PERFORMANCE-LINE

          • C 12 GEN2

          • Maximum efficiency combined with a small footprint: The C 12 GEN2 is the most compact HERMLE machining centre in the High-Performance Line.

            Designed for machining cubic parts up to 100 kg and is more than a match for larger models. The right speed is available for practically every application. The especially compact and space-saving C 12 GEN2 machining centre meets the ever increasing demands placed on speed and precision thanks to the corresponding HERMLE setups. It goes without saying that there are also many options available for more complex applications.

            From the comprehensive fluid technology to the optimised chip management system and a wide range of cooling lubricant units: The entry-level model of the High-Performance Line has a number of highlights to offer, e.g. the right chip disposal equipment for removing all types of chip from the working area. The especially compact and space-saving machining centre can be transported without being dismantled and set up without a foundation.

          • Machining centre C 22 GEN2

          • As the C 12’s bigger brother, the C 22 GEN2 High-Performance Line machining centre has the same collision circle with longer traverse paths and larger component dimensions – and that means a huge degree of flexibility.

            This equipment impresses with a large number of features. This makes the C 22 GEN2 ideal for a particularly wide range of applications. Short process cycles, quick workflows and the highest possible machine dynamics: The flexible C 22 GEN2 machining centre is ideal for machining high-quality parts with excellent accuracy and small tolerances. As with most HERMLE machining centres, the height-adjustable control panel can be adjusted to suit the operator’s working height.

            Cooling units, fluid cabinet and switch cabinet are fully integrated into the compact machine enclosure. The space-saving deployment of the chip conveyor helps both in daily operation and for maintenance and servicing. The especially flexible machining centre can be transported without dismantling and set up without a foundation.

            Energy efficiency in manufacturing and operation

            HERMLE manufactures many components using lightweight construction and mineral casting technology. The high degree of own production, local suppliers and components with high efficiency factors also promote energy efficiency. Energy recuperation, high-quality servo drives and the legendary long service lives are all proof of the same high standards during actual operation.

          • Machining centre C 32 GEN2

          • The C 32 GEN2 machining centre is able to workpieces weighing up to 1000 kg and cutting is undertaken in five axes simultaneously.

            The machining centre mills even difficult-to-machine materials in record time and with perfect precision – even fully automated and always with unbeatable operating comfort! The range of applications for the C 32 GEN2 is extensive. The C 32 GEN2 machining centre has two axes in the workpiece and three axes in the tool. Dynamic positioning, short non-productive periods and secure holding in the desired machining position all go without saying. As does the very large working area in relation to the installation space. During this change process, the mechanics, which is fundamental to the precision and long-term accuracy of HERMLE products, was not altered. The key values of the machine remain exceptionally high, thereby clearly reaffirming its dominance in the field of 5-axis technology.

            Numerous software and hardware components now feature cutting-edge technology. The entire electrical architecture has been revamped to incorporate ProfiNet as the communication bus, while a significant number of the sensors have been converted to IO Link (international standard). Furthermore, the entire drive network of Heidenhain machines has been revised and equipped with the latest generation of converters. These are all components that make the machines even more efficient. The entire platform introduces new technologies and functions, including cutting-edge interface technology and evaluation/diagnostic capabilities for enhanced service analysis in case of errors.

          • HERMLE automation – everything from a single supplier!

          • We develop solutions to meet your requirements!

            The automation of HERMLE machining centres and milling machines has a long tradition at HERMLE. What began with the simplest automation and handling solutions was already transferred to a separate subsidiary HLS HERMLE Systemtechnik GmbH in the mid-nineties, whose focus is on robotics and turnkey projects. Whether pallet changers, pallet storage, additional magazines, handling systems, robot systems or complex turnkey projects, HERMLE offers you the optimal solution for the automation of HERMLE products – and all this from a single source, even in the event of service.

              • Pallet changer

              • Assembly and production of automation systems, robot systems, turn-key projects.
              • Handling systems

              • Why automation? Mankind has alway been very inventive when it comes to making work easier, avoiding hard and monotonous work and improving productivity. Now the main aims are to increase production times and decrease idle times and downtimes.

                The better this can be achieved, the lower the machine-hour rate and the lower the personnel costs, meaning altogether lower capital commitment. Especially in times of staff shortages in the high-qualification areas, automation provides an alternative to manned triple-shift operations.
