Premium Components Increase Performance
We focus our efforts on reducing your overall cycle time while minimizing time wasted on non-cutting operations, by incorporating time-saving features in our horizontal milling machine design and using premium components.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to evaluate structural rigidity, torsional stiffness, thermal characteristics and natural frequency to achieve the best frame design. Critical with today’s high velocities and accelerations - machine performance must be carefully optimized in order to maintain part quality.
Linear Glass Scales: The HBMXi boring mill machine line is equipped with linear glass scales as standard on XYZ axes. This helps reduce the effect of thermal instabilities. The linear glass scales help increase accuracy on all Hurco boring mills.
Double-nut Ballscrews: Hurco uses premium grade double-nut ballscrews that are anchored at both ends. The double-nut pretensioning presents pressure in opposite directions to the ballscrew. This keeps the nut under tension and prevents backlash and produces less thermal growth.
