How much does the Hartford HCMC-3110 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford HCMC-3110 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
Three metres of X travel on a single column: the Hartford HCMC-3110 has 3,100 mm (122.0 in) in X, 1,020 mm (40.2 in) in Y and 820 mm (32.3 in) in Z, on box guideways with a #50 spindle. It is the largest HCMC, with a table of 3,250 x 1,020 mm (128.0 x 40.2 in) rated for 4,000 kg (8,818 lb).
Machines of this format compete with small double-column mills. The single-column layout keeps the front of the table open for crane loading and lets long parts overhang the ends, at the cost of a longer, heavier saddle and table assembly. Hartford's structural notes for the line are relevant here: full support along the X axis, X guideway spacing widened by 35%, and wider support points on the base.
The spindle list is trimmed for this size. The gear head is given as 4,000 / 6,000 rpm, where the HCMC-2110 lists 4,000 / 6,000 / 8,000 rpm, and the DDS spindle is a single 12,000 rpm version. The magazine holds 24 tools, with 32 or 40 as alternatives, on BT50 shanks.
One entry needs checking with the maker. The spindle drive motor row for the HCMC-3110 reads 35-55 kW under a Cont. / 30 min heading, far above the 11 / 15 kW to 22 / 26 kW listed for the HCMC-2110 and written as a range instead of a pair. It is reproduced here as printed.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 3,100 mm (122.0 in) of X travel with a full 1,020 mm (40.2 in) of Y
- Table of 3,250 x 1,020 mm (128.0 x 40.2 in) for 4,000 kg (8,818 lb)
- Box guideways with full support throughout the X axis travel
- #50 gear head at 4,000 / 6,000 rpm for heavy, low-speed cutting
- Open single-column layout for loading long parts
Limitations
- The gear head stops at 6,000 rpm and the DDS spindle is listed at 12,000 rpm only
- The motor row, printed as 35-55 kW, does not follow the format of the rest of the line and needs confirming
- Z travel of 820 mm (32.3 in) is the same as on the much shorter HCMC-2110
- A table load of 4,000 kg (8,818 lb) is spread over more than three metres of table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Travels are 3,100 mm (122.0 in) in X, 1,020 mm (40.2 in) in Y and 820 mm (32.3 in) in Z. The table measures 3,250 x 1,020 mm (128.0 x 40.2 in) and carries an average load of 4,000 kg (8,818 lb).
02
A #50 gear-head spindle at 4,000 / 6,000 rpm and a #50 DDS spindle at 12,000 rpm. Shanks are BT50, with BBT, CAT and DIN69871 listed as alternatives.
03
Hartford's table prints 35-55 kW in the row headed spindle drive motor (Cont. / 30 min). That is a range, not the continuous / 30 min pair used for the other HCMC models, so the actual motor ratings should be confirmed with Hartford before ordering.
04
The ATC row reads A: 24 (32 / 40) pcs: an arm-type changer with 24 tools as standard and 32 or 40 as alternatives. Tool size and weight limits are not given on the product page.
