Hathor SIX Tool Presetter

The Hathor SIX Tool Presetting machine is designed completely free-standing on its own integral base; Hathor SIX features ground granite and stainless steel construction combined with a large digital camera and touch screen menu system – these new electronics provide operational and functional simplicity that is second to none.

Featuring a new electronic control: a powerful fanless PC with Linux operating system for the integrated management of the functions of measurement / inspection tools, machine origins and toolsets. Ease of use thanks to the integrated touch screen.

Spindle System

Featuring a Spindle System that is fully interchangeable and utilises a one-piece cartridge - eliminating the need for adaptors and the errors associated with their use. Incorporated within the spindle is our innovative universal mechanical clamping system with electronic tool clamping confirmation (also now available as an option to suit HSK tool shanks).

Software Package 

Also included with our Hathor SIX model is our TdSIX software package. Working via your DNC system, TdSIX converts measured tool data into CNC code for direct loading into the machine controller and associated tool offset pages.

TECHNICAL DATA 

Measuring range: Diameter max 400 mm (radius 200 mm); height max 600 mm. 

Standard mechanical/electronic and optical equipment: 

• Base and column made of natural granite to guarantee the maximum accuracy: linearity max error 2 μm/Mt – certification with Taylor Hobson res.1 μm/Mt. electronic millesimal level. ELBO CONTROLLI NIKKEN Linear Transducers in optical glass type AS 371 certified HP laser: Axes resolution: X= 1 μm, Z= 1 μm. 
• Machine structure in stainless steel offering high mechanical strength and long life, floor mounted with self-levelling supports in non-deformable steel. 
• ISO / BT / HSK / VDI... etc. Interchangeable rotating spindle-holder (to be specified) max run-out error < 2 μm. Spindle Index in four angular positions: 0°-90°-180°-270°. 
• Linear slideways: 2 for X axis slideways and 1 for Z axis slideway. 
• Double re-circulating ball bearing slides (four in total), lubricated for life. Universal electro-mechanical tool clamping (ISO only). 
• Pneumatic-mechanic braking of the spindle-holder rotation. 
• Constant load Archimedean spiral spring (as opposed to a mass counter-balance system).
