3-axis CNC milling machine HEXA

universalfor aluminumfor wood

Description
The HEXA is a high-speed CNC milling machine equipped with Direct Drive linear motors on the X and Y axes, designed for machining, cutting, engraving, milling and polishing a wide range of materials in demanding industrial environments. Its anti-vibration structure (steel frame with polymer concrete) delivers thermal and mechanical stability at high operating speeds. The machine targets applications requiring precision, repeatability and high productivity.

Applications

• Automotive: machining of panels, molds and technical parts for vehicles.
• Aerospace: machining of aluminum, composites and carbon fiber with tight tolerances.
• Advanced industry: technical parts in high-density plastics, resins and composite materials.
• Prototyping and model making: prototype production and tooling with strict dimensional requirements.
• Graphic arts and signage: precision engraving and cutting on soft and semi-hard materials.

Equipment
The HEXA integrates Direct Drive linear motors on X and Y axes, eliminating traditional mechanical transmission elements. It features a high-speed HITECO QD-2 6.5 kW electrospindle with HSK-E40 taper (ceramic bearings and liquid cooling), internal pressurization, fast tool change, a 12-position linear tool magazine integrated into the bed (compatible with HSK-E40 and ER-2 collets), grid and four CNC-controlled vacuum zones, modular workholding options (T-slots, tapped points or multi-drill systems), and a MITSUBISHI M80VW/M80W CNC control for process management.

Features

• Anti-vibration steel structure with polymer concrete to absorb machining vibrations and ensure consistent finishes.
• High positioning performance and dynamics thanks to Direct Drive linear motors, reducing downtime between operations.
• High-speed spindle delivering fine surface finishes with thermal stability and dust protection.
• 12-position linear tool magazine (tools up to Ø 35 mm and 100 mm length).
• Automatic lubrication and climate-controlled electrical cabinet to maximize uptime and minimize maintenance.
• Grid and four CNC-controlled vacuum zones; modular table configuration options.
