The C 42 U is a highly dynamic machining center, designed consistently for 5-axis/5-side machining. Features galore to ensure high-precision, economical parts production. Numerous automation solutions extend the application range many times over. Hermle's swivelling rotary tables are all made in-house, they are equipped with cutting-edge drive technology for highly dynamics during 5-axis maching. It's built using an elegant cassette panel construction, this high-tech building block concept is used throughout from the standard machine to the flexible manufacturing system. The machine can be transported without any dissassembly, and set up without a foundation. Plus, the C 42 U can be equipped to a Mill / Turn version.
