Breton Hawx

High dynamic 5 Axis vertical machining centre with gantry modular design and expandable configuration

The right combination of robustness and stability makes it ideal for high-speed milling and trimming operations on elements with complex three-dimensional shapes made of light alloys, polymers and resins or composite materials.

Breton Hawx

Reasons why

Class-leading robustness and repeatability

Speed is meaningless without control

Designed to overcome the common limits of this product category: reduced robustness and poor repeatability over time.
Thanks to its optimised design, Breton Hawx is not only more rigid and stable but also guarantees an excellent size-towork area ratio.
It is easily integrated into all production environments, it’s delivered already assembled and tested; it does not require special foundations and has minimal commissioning times.

The Hawx E1 is built using a selfsupporting monolithic structure, which is one of the main characteristics of the machine, making it robust and enabling easy handling for delivery and installation.

The Hawx E2 foresees a pre-assebled starting module made from a U-shape monoblock structure which is expandable longitudinally using one or more pre arranged and calibrated extra U-shape supporting frames.

Both versions of the machine are built with a box-in-box architecture that guarantees a significant increase in rigidity of the bridge-ram assembly.

The high strength, characteristic also of the new Hornet head, enables a remarkable increase in material removal performance and accuracy, all with the greatest dynamics.
The innovative offset geometry of the head allows for an outstanding increase of the machinable volumes while minimizing the external footprint of the machine and enabling a considerable accessibility to the workpice on the undercuts.
