Applications
Dynamic, precise and reliable Hermle’s C 12 can provide highly dynamic processing ofworkpieces up to 100 kg in weight simultaneously in 5 axes.
In particular, materials which are difficult to machine can be milled in record time and withperfect precision. This is achieved fully automatically right up to entire flexible production
systems. Our systems are always extremely precise and ensure high machine availability.

The workpiece
Many important points must be observed in order to guarantee that every workpiece ismachined perfectly. For this reason, Hermle has been working on perfecting and optimising themachining process for many years. This is the reason that the C 12 is now equipped with:- The largest working area relative to the installation area.
- The largest swivelling range of workpieces in the working area.
- Utilisation of the entire traverse range.
- A large collision circle between the table flanges.

The workpiece dimension- Unlimited crane top loading to above the table centre-	When loading the crane the spindle moves to the magazine –this means the working area is completely clear and accessible-	Extensive automation solutions for optimum workpiece handling

Table variants
Hermle's NC swivelling rotary table has revolutionised the concept of 5-axis machining.
The C 12 also relies on 5-axis operation and takes full advantage of its advantages. These
include torque drive on the highly dynamic version. All tables are manufactured exclusively
and entirely at our plant in Gosheim.

Technical data
High degree of freedom in working area
- Very high table load (up to 100 kg with the highest accuracy)- No accumulation of chip on the table (swivel table)- Swivelling axis A and rotary axis C are located within the workpiece (U-shape)- Wide spacing between the A axes flanges results in a very large collision circle-	High swivelling range for undercuts

Torque table-	High dynamics on the A and C axes
- No wear-	Direct, absolute measuring system

Drive technology- Central table load
-	Drive directly on table housing = low torsion A-axis-	Direct, absolute measuring system- Good maintenance accessibility- A-axis integrated in machine bed

The C 12 can be equipped with two-piece or compact spindles. All spindles can be replaced
quickly and easily in case of failure.
With the different speed ranges and tool holding fixtures the spindles are suitable for a wide
variety of machining tasks. Like the tables, all spindles are manufactured exclusively andentirely at our plant in Gosheim

Technical data
-	High-tech spindles for demanding milling processes- Slim-end spindle for machining deep cavities- Few projecting edges (prevention of collision)- Two-part spindle (faster, easier replacement)- Collision protection (collision sleeves) prevents damage in 50% of collisions

Collision protection with collision inquiry
Each spindle has several collision sleeves which
compensate collision energy in the Z direction.

Automation . C 12
Everybody is talking about automation, but it’s much more than just a trend. We ourselves
have changed from being a machine manufacturer to a process provider because we believethat the decisive criterion for automated efficiency is integration of the entire environment.
In keeping with this philosophy, we are continuing what began with economical palletchanging and intelligent handling systems with highly advanced robot solutions.

Automation . C 12
Our pallet changer is setting new standards for parallel setup in our highly dynamic machining
centres. A further increase in productivity allows for more adaptable storage systems.
Machining centres can be set up via pallet storage for production-oriented machine runs withminimum operator interference/without operator interference or for customer-specific runs
using a wide range of parts.
Furthermore, multiple machining centres can be linked to form a complete manufacturingsystem.
Hermle – milling at its best. We stand for- Machining centres and automation solutions from a single source.
- High system expertise during planning, installation and maintenance.
- 	3 -, 4- and 5-axis machining centres for which we ourselves manufacture and install allcomponents including table units, main spindles and entire sheet metal enclosures.
-	Automation solutions from pallet changing systems and pallet storage, tool magazinesand flexible manufacturing systems to custom turnkey solutions.

Precisionig hPrecision in every dimension: Hermle has a thorough understanding of the requirements for manufacturing high-precision
machining centres for processing smaller and larger workpieces of up to 2.5 t in weight. For this reason, "The Original" only uses
German machines for production and materials from European suppliers.
Furthermore, the entire machining production department is fully air conditioned and kept clean by a central chip disposal
system.
Hermle machining centres have also been thoroughly tested by intensive endurance tests and in manufacture-oriented machining
processes in our own machining manufacturing department. Our meticulous manufacturing processes allow Hermle to set new
precision standards which undercut those demanded by the DIN/ISO 10791 standard in every way.
At Hermle, we distinguish between positioning precision (accuracy with which a certain position within the working area can be
pinpointed on one axis) and geometric precision.
The latter is significant for the precision of the entire machine – it encompasses the following factors:- Positioning of linear and rotary axes.
- Straightness and angular deviation of the linear axes.
- Rectangularity and parallel alignment of all axes to one other.
- Concentricity and axial run-out of the table.
- Concentricity of the working spindle.
The precision of Hermle machining centres originates during mechanical production and is not produced by subsequent electronic compensation. This further improves the precision of the individual axes (precision package 1 and 2).

Hermle also recommends the HSK-A 63 tool holding

Energy efficiency
Both manufacturer and customer benefit from efficient production processes. Therefore,
Hermle has focused on integrated resource sustainability and energy efficiency for many years.
We can rightly claim pioneer status in the "bluecompetence" initiative founded by the VDW(German Machine Tool Builders Association).
From development to low-energy manufacturing (with a high level of in-house production)
to the operation of CNC machining centres – Hermle has stood for a principle of sustainable
environmental protection combined with economic considerations for many years. Energy

Our machining centres are energy efficient both during
their manufacture and during operation.

Low energy component manufacture-	Mineral casting technology- Lightweight construction
Virtual machine optimisation / machine development
	Reduction of transport energy consumption-	High levels of in-house production- Just one production plant- Locally sourced components
		 and materials-	No material tourism
	High-quality, high-efficiency
components- Ball screws-	Guideways-	Antifriction bearing etc.

	Energy recovery has been standard at Hermle forover 20 years
	High quality servo axes
	Ideal drive design for
the respective application
	Demand-based cooling technology
both for dimensioning andin application
