How much does the EMAG CLC 260 H cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc gear cutting machine in this class — not a quote from EMAG. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The EMAG CLC 260 H is a horizontal gear cutting machine and the smaller of the two sizes in EMAG's CLC H range. EMAG publishes one table for both sizes, so each row carries the figures for the whole series: the maximum workpiece diameter reads 260 / 500 mm (10 / 19.5 in), and the 260 mm (10 in) figure is the one this model's name refers to. The CLC 500 H takes the 500 mm (19.5 in) end of that row.
Length is where the shared table leaves a question open. It lists maximum workpiece lengths of 1,800, 2,300 and 3,200 mm (71, 90.5 and 126 in) without saying which of them can be ordered on the 260 frame. Anyone planning to cut teeth on long shafts should get the length for this size in writing before comparing it with anything else. The module row, 6 / 30 mm, is just as unspecific: it does not say whether those are the limits of a range or one figure per size.
The rows that are not in doubt describe the build. The workpiece lies horizontally, which is the natural way to hold a long shaft between its ends rather than standing it upright, and the tangential axes are listed as hand-scraped. The table stops there. It gives no spindle speed, drive power, control or accuracy figure for this model, so those have to come from EMAG's quotation.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Horizontal layout for shafts, with a maximum workpiece diameter of 260 mm (10 in) on this size
- The CLC H table lists workpiece lengths of 1,800, 2,300 and 3,200 mm (71, 90.5 and 126 in) for the series
- Tangential axes are listed as hand-scraped
Limitations
- The shared CLC H table does not tie the three lengths or the 6 / 30 mm module figures to a size, so the limits of the 260 version need confirming
- No spindle speed, power, control or accuracy figure is listed for this model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
EMAG describes both in one table. Its diameter row reads 260 / 500 mm (10 / 19.5 in), and the model names put 260 mm (10 in) on this machine and 500 mm (19.5 in) on the CLC 500 H. Length, module, the horizontal layout and the hand-scraped tangential axes are given once for the series, so the table shows no other difference.
02
The series table lists 1,800, 2,300 and 3,200 mm (71, 90.5 and 126 in) as maximum workpiece lengths, but it does not say which of them apply to the 260 size. Ask EMAG which length the machine on your quotation is built for.
03
No. The CLC 260 H-FR has its own table: the same 260 mm (10 in) diameter, lengths of 1,800 / 2,300 mm (71 / 90.5 in), a maximum cutter diameter of 275 mm (11 in) and a maximum profile height of 28 mm (1 in). None of those cutter figures are listed for the CLC 260 H.
