Hermle C 52 GEN2

The Hermle C 52 GEN2 is a 5-axis machining centre built around a swivelling rotary table that carries workpieces of up to 2000 kg. Its linear axes travel 1000 mm in X, 1100 mm in Y and 750 mm in Z, with rapid traverses of 60 m/min and an optional main spindle running up to 18000 rpm. Tools are changed by a pick-up tool changer from a magazine, and the machine can be delivered in a mill-turn version designated C 52 MT.
