How much does the Hartford Aero-836G cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford Aero-836G 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
Hartford's Aero-836G is an eight-metre gantry type 5-faced machining center: 8,000 mm (315.0 in) of X travel, 3,600 mm (141.7 in) of Y, and a table of 8,000 x 3,100 mm (315.0 x 122.0 in).
The model name ends in G where the four, five and six-metre machines mostly end in B. Hartford's tables show no difference in the rows between the two groups, and the page does not say what the letter stands for. What can be said is that the eight and ten-metre Aero models are all G types.
For long travels Hartford points to the screw support mechanism. A long screw sags under its own weight, and the support, in the maker's words, improves that sagging and enhances the positioning accuracy and lifespan of the screw. The screw specification is also raised by one level to lift static rigidity.
Compared with the six-metre Aero-636B, which has the same Y travel on a 6,000 x 3,100 mm (236.2 x 122.0 in) table, nothing changes but length. The table is rated at 5,000 kg/m², Z travel is 1,000 mm (1,200 mm optional), and the #50 gear head runs 6,000 rpm, optionally 8,000 rpm.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Hartford's page does not explain it. The eight and ten-metre five-faced Aero models carry the G suffix and most shorter ones a B; the spec rows of the Aero-836G match those of the B models apart from size.
02
X 8,000 mm (315.0 in), Y 3,600 mm (141.7 in), Z 1,000 mm with 1,200 mm optional. The table is 8,000 x 3,100 mm (315.0 x 122.0 in).
03
With a screw support mechanism. It is stated to improve screw dead weight sagging and enhance positioning accuracy and screw lifespan, and the screw specification is increased by one level to lift static rigidity.
