How much does the Starrag Heckert H80 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from Starrag. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
An 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) pallet, 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Y travel and a 50 kW (67 hp) HSK-A100 spindle define the Starrag Heckert H80, a horizontal machining center that traverses at 50 m/min (1,969 ipm).
The relation between pallet and Y travel is the useful detail. Y travel is 25% greater than the pallet width, so a tombstone or a tall housing can stand well above the pallet's footprint and still be reached near its top. X and Z travels are not listed, nor is the pallet load, so the full envelope of part and fixture needs confirming.
On the spindle side, 50 kW through HSK-A100 is a heavy-cutting arrangement: the large interface carries big face mills and long boring tools. Torque and maximum speed are not listed. The next size up, the Heckert H100, has a 1,000 x 1,000 mm (39.4 x 39.4 in) pallet with 60 kW (80 hp) and 800 Nm (590 ft-lb), which is the move to make when the part outgrows an 800 mm pallet.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 50 kW (67 hp) spindle with an HSK-A100 interface for large tooling
- 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Y travel over an 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) pallet
- 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) rapid traverse
Limitations
- X and Z travels and the pallet load are not listed
- Spindle torque and maximum speed are not listed, so the cutting range has to be confirmed
- Tool magazine capacity is not listed for this model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in). Y travel is 1,000 mm (39.4 in), so there is more vertical reach than pallet width. The maximum pallet load is not listed and should be confirmed for heavy fixtures.
02
An HSK-A100 spindle rated 50 kW (67 hp). Neither torque nor maximum speed appears in the listed figures, so ask for the spindle's torque curve when the job depends on low-speed roughing or on high-speed finishing.
03
On the listed figures the two match: the Heckert X80 also shows 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Y travel, an HSK-A100 spindle with 50 kW (67 hp) and 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) rapids. The Heckert X80 additionally lists an 80-tool magazine expandable to 300. What separates the two models has to be clarified with Starrag.
