Multitasking Machines

To help shops react quicker and more flexibly to market demands for increasingly complex parts in smaller batch sizes, multi-tasking machines use a single setup to perform different metalworking operations that completely process a part of raw material into a desired final shape and size without manual intervention. This improves part quality, accelerates manufacturing and directly impacts shop capacity, floor space, personnel and profitability.

Starrag launches three new 5-axis Heckert machines, which are suitable for the complete machining of large components, including those that may be quite heavy. The machines feature a compact design resulting in a smaller footprint.
