Used HARDINGE CHNC I #9208317 for sale

HARDINGE CHNC I is a CNC machine tool (Computerized Numerical Control) designed for the machining of parts with complex shapes and contours. It employs high power spindle motors to drive high-speed spindle motors with up to 5.5 horsepower. It utilizes a combination of both linear and rotary axes, with 4 linear axes controlled by SERVO II motion control systems and with 3 rotary axes controlled by SERVO IV motion control. This allows multi-axis simultaneous contouring, a significant advantage over single axis CNC systems. HARDINGE CHNC series offers both contouring and profiling capabilities, with either flat-line or stepped-pocketing capabilities. It operates at a range of speeds from 0.1 inch per minute to 3500 inches per minute and has a maximum spindle speed of 10500 rpm. It is suitable for a range of materials, including aluminum, steel, plastic, iron, wood, and cast iron. CHNC I features a 3-axis CNC system with both manual and automatic modes, which allows the operator to easily fine-tune tool paths for optimum performance. The CNC system includes an array of functions for maintaining accuracy and control of the machining process, including probing, contouring and helical cutting, as well as tool registration, off-set and tool-radius compensation options. In addition to its three linear axes and three rotary axes, HARDINGE CHNC I also includes an XZ long-travel table, an NC table, an encoder and a manual positioning system. This combination of features allows multiple precision machining operations to be performed quickly and accurately, with a maximum of 3700 IPM rapid traverse speed. The machine also features a high-speed double-column design for durability and reliability. CHNC I is a powerful and precise machine tool which allows for complete control over machine functions and spindle speed. The machine's design and construction have been designed to perform with optimum repeatability and accuracy, making it suitable for a wide range of machining operations. Additionally, the machine is easy to program and operate, giving users access to a powerful and flexible platform for their machining needs.
