How much does the Hartford HSA-832EA cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hartford HSA-832EA 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
Eight metres long, with 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y travel: the Hartford HSA-832EA is the version of the long, 2,500 mm wide five-face HSA meant for work on the flanks of a part. Table size is 8,000 x 2,500 mm (315.0 x 98.4 in), X travel 8,000 mm (315.0 in), table load 27,000 kg (59,524 lb).
Its twin is the HSA-828EA, identical in table and rating but with 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y. On the 832EA the spindle clears the table on both sides, so rows of holes, slots or pads along an eight-metre beam can be cut with a right-angle head in the same clamping as the top face.
A long X axis puts demands on the drive. Hartford fits direct-coupled servo motors on all three linear axes and supports the X ballscrew as standard on machines above 5 meters. The Z axis, on four linear guideways, is balanced with nitrogen instead of a hydraulic counterweight.
The table gives a #50 spindle in two forms, a gear head at 6,000 rpm or optionally 8,000 rpm and a hybrid at 10,000 rpm. Z travel is 1,000 mm (1,200 mm optional), and the magazine takes 32, 40 or 60 tools.
