Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Republic Lagun HRF-1540 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 Republic Lagun HRF-1540 is a CNC horizontal mill of the rise and fall type: the table moves in X and Y on a knee that rises and falls for Z, under a horizontal spindle with an arbor and overarm. Travels are 39.37 in (1,000 mm) in X, 15.35 in (390 mm) in Y and 19.29 in (490 mm) in Z.
This is arbor milling brought under CNC, not a horizontal machining center with a pallet and tool magazine. The NST #40 spindle is driven by a 7.5 HP (5.6 kW) motor through 9 speeds from 85 to 1,300 rpm, and an electronic variable speed drive covering 45 to 1,500 rpm is the option. The arbor is Ø 1.25 in (31.75 mm) and 20 in (508 mm) long, carried by two arbor supports. According to the maker one support has a bronze bushing for heavy cuts at lower speeds and the other a needle bushing for speeds up to 1,300 RPM.
Slab mills, side-and-face cutters and gang setups on an arbor remove metal in a way a vertical spindle cannot, and that is the work the maker names: medium and short runs, prototypes, over-sized parts and steel mold making. The table is 51.18 in x 12 in (1,300 x 300 mm) with a load capacity of 660 lb (300 kg). A larger 63 in x 12 in (1,600 x 300 mm) table with 51 in (1,300 mm) of X travel is optional.
Feeds are unhurried. X and Y feed and rapid are both listed at 98.43 ipm (2,500 mm/min), and Z rapid at 29.53 ipm (750 mm/min). Positioning accuracy is ±0.0004 in (±0.01 mm) on X, Y and Z, laser verified on every machine. The mill weighs 5,000 lb (2,250 kg) net and runs on 220 VAC at 20 AMP.
