How much does the Hartford Aero-641BL-5X cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford Aero-641BL-5X 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 Hartford Aero-641BL-5X has 4,100 mm (161.4 in) of Y travel above a 6,000 x 3,600 mm (236.2 x 141.7 in) table, with 6,000 mm (236.2 in) of X travel. It is a gantry type 5-axis machining center from the six-metre group of the Aero series.
The Y axis is where this model's description is most specific. Hartford gives it three linear guideways and a linear motor design. On a gantry, Y is the axis that carries the ram and head across the beam, and in five-axis contouring it reverses constantly as the tool follows a surface. A linear motor has no screw and no nut, so there is no backlash to take up at each reversal.
X is a linear motor axis as well at this length, since Hartford limits that drive to X axes of up to 6 meters. Four linear guideways, two per side, carry the gantry.
Both spindles in the table are built-in. The HSK-A63 is listed at 18,000 or 24,000 rpm and the HSK-A100 at 12,000 rpm. Z travel is 1,100 mm, with 1,300 mm as an option, and the table is rated at 5,000 kg/m². The narrower Aero-636BL-5X has a 6,000 x 3,100 mm (236.2 x 122.0 in) table and 3,600 mm (141.7 in) of Y.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Hartford describes a Y-axis 3 linear guideways and linear motor design. The X axis is also within the range for which Hartford offers the linear motor, which is limited to X axes of up to 6 meters.
02
X 6,000 mm (236.2 in), Y 4,100 mm (161.4 in), Z 1,100 mm with 1,300 mm optional. The table is 6,000 x 3,600 mm (236.2 x 141.7 in), rated at 5,000 kg/m².
03
A built-in HSK-A63 spindle at 18,000 or 24,000 rpm and a built-in HSK-A100 spindle at 12,000 rpm. Hartford describes the spindle as oil-air lubricated.
04
The Aero-641B is the 5-faced machine on the same table, with a #50 gear head at 6,000 rpm and heads that index. The Aero-641BL-5X contours with a 5 axis head and HSK spindles up to 24,000 rpm.
