The unique box-in-box architecture provides a significant increase in the rigidity of the bridge-carriage-RAM assembly and it combines with the high strength of the new Hornet head to achieve a significant increase in material removal and accuracy, all with the highest dynamics. Investment efficiency The electro-welded, monolithic, selfsupporting structure is the core of the machine, providing strength and allowing easy handling. The innovative offset geometry of the head also makes it possible to increase the volume that can be machined and to minimise the external dimensions of the...

5 reasons to choose Hawx 1 / Robustness and stability over time The monoblock structure and box-in-box bridge have been designed to raise the level of accuracy and repeatability over time while maintaining high accelerations and feedrates. In addition, the new Hornet head, developed by Breton for Hawx, is extremely rigid to ensure greater performances and higher accuracies even on heavier works. The final result is the creation of a new, higher benchmark for machining centres in this category. 2 / Unrivaled footprint ratio Up to 29% more of working area for the same external dimensions....

Founded in 1963 by Marcello Toncelli, with headquarters in Treviso (Castello di Godego), two other production sites in Italy and six foreign branches (USA, Australia, India, China, UK, Brazil), the company is recognized worldwide thanks to its philosophy always aimed at research. The desire to explore new technologies, as integral part of the company’s DNA, has in fact led to the establishment of the BIT (Breton Institute of Technology), where different dedicated teams design and test innovative solutions to develop materials that anticipate the needs of businesses. All contents are for...
