How much does the Starrag Heckert X90 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Starrag. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Starrag Heckert X90 is a 5-axis simultaneous machining center built around a 1,000 x 1,000 mm (39.4 x 39.4 in) pallet and an HSK-A100 spindle. Its C axis is 360 deg continuous, and the tool magazine starts at 80 tools and expands to 360.
The pallet is the figure to plan from. A clamping area that size takes large housings and frames, or a fixture carrying several smaller parts, and with a continuous C axis each face can be presented to the spindle without re-clamping. What the published table leaves out is how far the axes travel above that pallet, how much weight it carries and what the spindle delivers: no travels, load, power, speed or torque are listed for the X90.
The nearest reference in Starrag's own data is the Heckert X80, which has the same HSK-A100 interface and is listed with 50 kW (67 hp), 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Y travel and 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) rapids. The Heckert X80 magazine expands from 80 to 300 tools, so the X90 goes further at full expansion. Do not assume the X80 spindle and travel figures apply to the X90; ask for them.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,000 x 1,000 mm (39.4 x 39.4 in). The pallet load and the number of pallets are not listed in Starrag's table, so check both against the weight of your part and fixture.
02
Both use HSK-A100 and start with 80 tools. The Heckert X80 expands to 300 tools and is listed with 50 kW (67 hp), 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Y travel and 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) rapids. The X90 expands to 360 tools and is listed with a 1,000 x 1,000 mm (39.4 x 39.4 in) pallet; its power, travels and rapids are not published.
03
80 in the base magazine, expandable to 360. Every position takes an HSK-A100 holder. Limits on tool length, diameter and weight are not given in the table.
