How much does the Heller H 6000 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from Heller. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Heller H 6000 has 1,000 mm of travel in each of X, Y and Z, longer strokes than the H 2000, H 4000 or H 5000, on a 630 x 630 mm pallet with a 1,400 kg table load and an HSK-A 100 spindle interface. It is a horizontal machining center for parts that are big before they are heavy.
What it adds over the H 5000 is space. Pallet, load and tool interface are the same here as there: 630 x 630 mm, 1,400 kg, HSK-A 100. The H 5000 moves 800 mm per axis. On the H 6000 the longer axes go with a maximum workpiece of Ø 1,000 mm and 1,290 mm height.
A Ø 1,000 mm part on a 630 x 630 mm pallet reaches well past the clamping surface, and the 1,400 kg limit has to cover the fixture as well. Fabricated frames, large housings and other bulky, relatively light structures suit that combination better than solid blocks do. As on the smaller models, the workpiece height is more than the Y travel, 1,290 mm against 1,000 mm, so the tallest parts are not reachable top to bottom in a single clamping.
For tools, Heller lists up to 150 storage places with 3 chain-type magazines and up to 425 places with 4 rack-type magazines. Coolant is fed through the spindle at 50 bar, with a 70 bar option with frequency converter. Either Siemens SINUMERIK ONE or Fanuc 31iB-Plus can be specified as the control.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,000 mm of travel in X, Y and Z, against 800 mm on the H 5000
- Accepts workpieces up to Ø 1,000 mm and 1,290 mm high
- HSK-A 100 interface with up to 425 places in 4 rack-type magazines
- 1,400 kg table load as the listed figure, with no option required
Limitations
- Table load stays at 1,400 kg, the same as the H 5000, despite the larger envelope
- The pallet is 630 x 630 mm, so a Ø 1,000 mm workpiece overhangs it considerably
- With chain-type magazines the capacity is up to 150 storage places
- Heller's table lists no spindle speed, power or torque for the model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Travel. The H 6000 moves 1,000 mm in X, Y and Z where the H 5000 moves 800 mm. Pallet size (630 x 630 mm), table load (1,400 kg), interface (HSK-A 100) and listed tool storage are the same on both.
02
Up to Ø 1,000 mm and 1,290 mm in height, with a table load of 1,400 kg. The height is greater than the 1,000 mm Y travel, so a part at the limit cannot be machined over its whole height in one clamping.
03
Not more than the H 5000: both are listed at 1,400 kg. The H 4000 has 750 kg as standard with 850 kg and 1,400 kg as optional values, and the H 2000 has 550 kg as standard with 650 kg and 800 kg optional.
04
Two types. Chain-type: up to 150 storage places with 3 magazines. Rack-type: up to 425 places with 4 magazines. Both figures are for HSK-A 100 tooling, the only interface listed for this model.
