How much does the CHMER HM43(G)T cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the CHMER HM43(G)T that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The CHMER HM43(G)T is a small high speed milling machine with an HSK E32 spindle listed at 8,000-30,000 rpm and travels of 400 x 300 x 200 mm (15.7 x 11.8 x 7.9 in). It comes from an EDM builder, and its cut samples show why: graphite electrodes, small mould inserts and thin-walled features, the work that feeds a die-sinking department.
The spindle motor is rated 3/5 kW (S1/S6). That is a small motor, and with an E32 interface it defines the machine as a finishing and electrode mill for small cutters, not a roughing machine. The table is 500 x 400 mm (19.7 x 15.7 in) and carries 200 kg (441 lb). Spindle nose to table distance runs from 150 to 300 mm.
Axes are ballscrew driven by AC servo motors, with a work feed of 10 m/min (394 ipm) and rapid traverse of 15 m/min (591 ipm). CHMER says each machine's X and Y axes are laser measured and ball bar tested, with the results recorded. The CNC is CHMER's own controller, built for high speed milling, with a 15" full color TFT LCD screen.
Check the accessory lists before comparing quotations. Automatic tool length measurement, coolant equipment and a manual pulse generator are standard, but the ATC itself is on the option list, as are a 4th axis rotary table and 3-axis linear scales. Net weight is 2,680 kg (5,908 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Spindle speed range of 8,000-30,000 rpm on an HSK E32 taper
- Laser calibration and ball bar testing of X and Y on every machine, per CHMER
- Automatic tool length measurement and spindle air blast are standard accessories
- CHMER's own CNC controller for high speed milling with a 15" full color TFT LCD screen
- Rapid traverse of 15 m/min (591 ipm) and work feed of 10 m/min (394 ipm)
Limitations
- Spindle motor is 3/5 kW (S1/S6), so heavy roughing is out of scope
- ATC is listed as an option, not as standard equipment
- Table load is limited to 200 kg (441 lb)
- Z travel is 200 mm (7.9 in)
- Linear scales are optional
