How much does the Hartford HSA-536EAY cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford HSA-536EAY 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 HSA-536EAY has a 5,000 x 3,000 mm (196.9 x 118.1 in) table and 4,400 mm (173.2 in) of Y travel. X travel is 5,000 mm (196.9 in). The table is rated for 21,000 kg (46,296 lb), and the machine is a five-face double-column type that changes angular heads automatically.
Hartford states that Y-axis ballscrew support is the standard configuration for the HSA-x36 series. Here the screw serves well over four metres of travel, so the support is doing real work: it stops the screw sagging and, in the maker's words, enhances positioning accuracy and screw life.
In practical terms the machine is nearly square in plan, X and Y travel being of similar size. A part three metres wide can be approached from the long sides with a head, and from the ends as well, since X travel equals the table length. The HSA-536EA offers the same table with 3,600 mm (141.7 in) of Y for work that needs less side clearance.
A larger sister exists for buyers who want a magazine of heads: the HSA-546AAC, with 4,600 mm (181.1 in) of Y on this table. The 536EAY's spindle is #50, 6,000 rpm as a gear head (8,000 rpm optional) or 10,000 rpm as a hybrid. Z travel is 1,000 mm, optionally 1,200 mm.
