Dry machining and According to the machining process and the material besides the free-falling swarf
machining with also fine swarf (metallic dust) is produced, which is not bound or discharged by a
minimum quantity cooling lubricant. When the amount of swarf is large, it must be extracted via a special
working area extraction and must be separated by means of a filter.
lubrication
In the light alloy processing (e.g. aluminium) with a very large amount of fine swarf
being produced, also a possible exothermal reaction has to be taken into account.
In this case, appropriate fire protection and explosion prevention must necessarily
be provided. In any case a swarf accumulation in the working area of the machining
centre should be avoided (clean the working area within suitable intervals).

General safety regulations
General This machine has been built according to the state-of-the-art technology and to the
current safety regulations. Provided that it is operated properly, no specific dangers
for the operator are to be expected.
It is assumed that the operating personnel is adequately trained in the operation of
machine tools.
! Warning
When operating the machine, wrong handling can result in serious injuries that
may become fatal.
For this reason, please heed the following instructions:
• When working with the machine, for the sake of your own safety, wear the
necessary personal safety equipment including safety boots, safety goggles,
protective clothing and safety gloves, etc., as well as close fitting work clothes
and hair protection for long hair. Roll up sleeves towards the inside only. Take
off wrist watches, rings, chains and similar jewellery before starting work!
• If the noise level is high, wear hearing protection!
• To keep the noise level of the machine to a minimum, you must monitor the
noise emission directly on-site during machining. If noise emission exceeds the
legally determined limits, inform your supervisor.
• Always ensure sufficient ventilation and aeration.
• Clean off any spilled liquids (cooling lubricant, grease or oil) immediately after
spilling due to risk of slipping!
• At the work place, the MAC limit value of the total concentration of oil vapour and
oil aerosol of 10 mg/m3 must be observed! Therefore always ensure sufficient
ventilation and aeration! If necessary, have the relevant controlling authority
(e.g. professional association) carry out a measurement. If the limit is exceeded,
change process conditions and/or have an extractor installed!
• After switching off the machine by means of the main switch the socket at the
switch cabinet is still alive!
10

Operational safety
! Warning
When operating the machine, wrong handling can result in serious injuries that
may become fatal.
For this reason, please heed the following instructions:
• As long as the machine is working, do not reach into the area of rotating shafts,
equipment or tools!
• The protective cabin must always be closed completely during operation and
may not be opened!
• Use only tools which are suitable for machining the respective material. Please
also note that some tools are only allowed for certain rpm ranges and are sub-
ject to wear.
• The use of grinding wheels and cutting-off wheels is not allowed!
• When working in an area with rotating tools, do not wear protective gloves – risk
of the hand being caught in the rotating tool!
• Work pieces and mounting devices may only be handled using appropriate
loading devices!
• Lifting tackles and loading devices, which are used to load the machine, must
be adequate for the purpose and provide sufficient lifting capacity!
• It is recommended to install an extraction system when machining graphite or
materials the machining of which produces fine dust!
• Each time before setup, remove the tool from the spindle and make certain that all
fastening screws (for example clamping devices, etc.) are securely tightened!
• Do not reach between milling spindle and work piece.
• Ensure correct and safe clamping of the work pieces.
• The work piece has to be securely mounted and/or clamped with adequate
clamping devices!
12
General safety regulations
• No screws, nuts or similar parts must protrude from the clamped tool. Special
care must be taken when using far jutting out boring heads or similar objects!
• Always wear adequate protective clothing and safety goggles during the setup
mode!
• The machining of readily flammable, explosive materials (e.g. magnesium) is
not allowed!
• The machine operator has to ensure that clamping devices and work pieces
are clamped correctly!
• A manless test run of a new program is strictly prohibited!
• To avoid any evaporation during machining, ensure sufficient cooling lubricant
or choose a dry machining method!
• Always select milling work in such a manner that no cooling lubricant can splash
out of the protective cabin.
• Change tools on time before they become blunt and are then at risk to frac-
ture.
• When changing tools, observe the permissible rpm speed! Danger produced
by entering the wrong rpm speed (bouncing error during input via keyboard),
large-sized tools or special tools could thus erroneously be operated up to the
possible maximum spindle speed.
• Use only safety goggles marked CE (safety goggles according to EN 166 with
eye-protecting lenses made of polycarbonate)! Observe the exchange intervals
of the eye-protecting lenses.
• You must wear safety goggles when working with the cabin open!
• The use of cooling lubricants containing more than 15% by volume of inflam-
mable liquid (e.g. oil) is not admissible!
• For the operation, refer inter alia to the technical documents of the ancillary
equipment which are enclosed in the "Machine documentation" folder!

Repair
• If at all possible, repair work should be carried out with the machine at stand-
still. If this is not possible, special organizational and personal measures must
be taken. e.g. The necessary work may only be carried out by trained persons
who are capable of averting possible risks, that is, repair work (replacing parts,
repair) may only by carried out by who by virtue of their technical knowledge
can execute the work competently, carefully and completely and have especially
been trained by Hermle AG.
• A particular risk potential is encountered in repair work (replacing parts, repairs).
The servicing personnel is at a particularly high risk – for example when:
– Working under difficult environmental conditions (e.g. not enough room,
forced posture, unsafe standing position)
– Working with the protective devices turned off
– Improvising during troubleshooting (unscheduled servicing)
– Troubleshooting with the machine running
– Unintentional machine movements
– Working with different media (e.g. hydraulics, pneumatics, electricity)
• During repair work, it is possible that some protective equipment will be removed
or disabled. In these cases, especially qualified personnel capable of recogniz-
ing the risks which may occur and of avoiding accidents and damage must be
hired to carry out this work.
• When working on devices that are electrically charged, it is obligatory to have an
additional qualified person present that can intervene in case of emergency!
• It is absolutely necessary to observe the notes and regulations in the service
instructions of Hermle AG!
• Lifting tackle (crane, ropes, etc.) must be provided for repair work capable of trans-
porting a minimum load of 500 kg (to be able to move the entire machine).

General technical data
In order to estimate the noise pollution at the work place (acoustic emissions) derived
from the acoustic emission specifications of the machine, it is necessary to consider
the sound wave reflections, the actual operating conditions at hand and the influence
of the noise emissions of surrounding machines.
In any event, the machine operator must take into consideration the Accident Preven-
tion Regulations for noise (BGV B3).
According to BGV B3 § 5 – valid for working areas: If risk of damage to hearing re-
sulting from noise exists or is anticipated for the insured, the proprietor is obligated
to arrange the working areas in such a way as to minimize the propagation of sound
waves, using practical experience in applying the latest sound minimizing technol-
ogy.
23
General technical data
The choice of the cross section of the line to be used for connection to the mains
should be made according to the connection conditions laid down in the electrical
circuit diagram. The electrical circuit diagram is to be found in the compartment on
the inside of the switch cabinet.
The direction of the rotating field must be clockwise. Before switching on the machine,
the direction of the rotating field must be tested with a measuring device. If necessary,
alter the direction of rotation by interchanging 2 phases (e.g. L1 and L2).

General technical data
Note
Hermle AG cannot be held liable for any damage to the machine caused by inappro-
priate cooling lubricant or insufficient, incorrect maintenance of the cooling lubricant
by the owner of the machine.
Due to the fact that the wide range of machining processes may also lead to differ-
ent cooling lubricants being used, Hermle AG cannot recommend any special kind
of cooling lubricant. Depending on the corresponding application, the owner of the
machine should select the cooling lubricant most suited to his machining process
with his cooling lubricant supplier.
On the basis of their extensive volume of data, well known cooling lubricant manu-
facturers can supply, in most cases without problems a certificate of use. This means
that proof can be provided as to which cooling lubricants have been in use with which
machine types and for how long.
29
General technical data
The basic requirements listed below should, however, always be considered when
choosing a cooling lubricant:
• Suitable for the planned machining processes and usable for the widest possible
range of applications.
• Suitable for the material being processed.
• Suitable for both roughing and finishing.
• Readily miscible with water (emulsions).
• Offering protection against corrosion at appropriate concentrations.
• Good metal removing capacity and little foaming.
• Environmentally friendly - disposal by the supplier.
• The cooling lubricant cannot be mixed with oil from leaks. Leak oil, which under
certain circumstances may get into the cooling lubricant, must not be absorbed
by the latter but it should float on its surface.
• The cooling lubricant emulsion may not contain more than 15 vol. % of flammable
liquid (e.g. oil).
• The cooling lubricant concentrate must not be affected by bacteria or by fungi and,
if made up according to the instructions, not irritate the skin. Request appraisals
of skin compatibility.
• Cooling lubricants must be designed so that no seals, elastomers, machine paint
or machine parts are affected by them.
This is usually guaranteed in the case of cooling lubricants containing mineral oil.
In the case of mineral-oil-free or semi-synthetic cooling lubricants, for example
ester-based products, this must be proven in each individual case. If ester-based
cooling lubricants are used, it is essential to consult the respective cooling lubri-
cant manufacturer.
• The cooling lubricant must be well filterable and separable.
• To prevent various chemical reactions on the machine, the cooling lubricant emul-
sion should be obtained from the same manufacturer as the operating lubricants
used in the machine.

General transport
regulations
! Danger
A sliding load during transport with a transport vehicle (including in road traffic) can
result in serious or even fatal injuries to the transport personnel and any persons
that may be present.
Because of this, the forwarding company or transporter must observe the follow-
ing cautions:
• Special caution and care must be employed at all times to exclude dangers for
persons!
• The means of transport must meet the requirements of the highway code and
licensing regulations!
• The dimensions and permissible total weight / carrying capacity of the transport
vehicle must be approved for the machine in question (including packaging
and transport device)! This means for example observing the permissible total
weight of the transport vehicle, the capacity of the loading surface for receiving
loads, and the required loading width / loading height / loading length (e.g. use
flatbed trailer)!
• The transport vehicle / transport surfaces must be air-cushioned!
• The transport vehicle must be equipped with an extendable tarp and frame - i.e.
a so-called "Curtainsider, Edscha or Hamburg covering" (no throw-over tarps
that rest on the machine)! To prevent friction-related damage caused by the
tarp, the load must be protected (e.g. by bubble wrap).
• Anchor points must be present on the transport vehicle according to DIN
EN 12640 with a rating of at least 20 kN (2000 daN) of load!
• Tension belts / lashing chains in flawless condition according to DIN EN 12195-2
(for tension belts) or DIN EN 12195-3 (for lashing chains) must be provided with
a load capacity of at least 2000 daN! The number of tension belts depends on
the number of items to be loaded. For the machine alone, at least 4 belts are
required. For the machine with additional magazine, pallet changer and acces-
sories, at least 16 belts are required in total.
• The anchor points and lashing equipment must be in perfect condition from a
safety perspective.
• Tested anti-slip mats (coefficient of friction at least µ = 0.6) must be used.
• To continue, see the following page.
34
Transport and installation
• The transport surface must be clean, free of grease and ice (e.g. no nails, oil,
grease, sand, or other residue)!
• Rubber mats must be placed at points where the clamping devices rest on
machine components or transport devices for protection between the clamping
device or transport device and the machine component, to prevent damage to
the clamping device and the machine.
! Danger
A sliding load during transport by rail, ship, or air can result in serious or even fatal
injuries to the transport personnel and any persons that may be present.
Because of this, make certain the machine is properly secured for the transport
vehicle being used!
The clamping and screen forces must be calculated by a specialist company for
the specific transport type and the machine protection designed accordingly, as
all of the transport information listed in this section only applies for transport using
a transport vehicle (truck).
35
Transport and installation
When transporting and installing the machine, suspended loads or wrong handling
can result in serious injuries or death.
For this reason, please heed the following instructions:
• People must never be allowed to stand under heavy loads!
• The installation of the machine may only be performed by sufficiently qualified
personnel, and commissioning of the machine only by the Hermle AG Customer
Service or a service authorized by Hermle AG.
• Only use means of transport (fork lift trucks, lifting trucks, cranes, heavy load
rollers etc.) with sufficient lifting power, i.e. more than the indicated transport
weight!
• When selecting the lifting tackle (straps, chains, ropes etc.), make absolutely
sure that their maximum load capacity is sufficient to lift the transport weight
of the machine! The maximum load capacity of a lifting tackle is usually clearly
marked.
• Affix your lifting tackles only to the HERMLE lifting devices provided for this
purpose!
• Before unloading the machine, make sure that there are no loose part
(e.g. machine components, straps) on the transport pallet!
• Lift and put down the machine only vertically, steadily, and without jerky move-
ments!
• Keep unauthorized persons outside of the danger area during machine instal-
lation and commissioning!
! Warning
In case of fire, blocked escape and rescue routes can result in danger to life.
For this reason, when installing the machine, please note that if there is an escape
route to both sides, an open door must always be taken into consideration! This
is why a minimum clear passageway of 500 mm around the entire machine must
be maintained and increased by the door width in the door area!

Transport informa-
! Caution
tion
When removing the transport device, damage can be caused to the machine if
sensitive machine components, e.g. guides, scales or lines are stepped on. Step-
ping on these sensitive machine components should therefore be avoided.
• A suitable crane is always needed to lift the machine from the transport pallet!
More detailed information can be found in the section "Transport by crane".
• The forwarding company has to provide the crane cross-beam, but these devices
can also be borrowed from Hermle AG for a fee.
• The switch cabinet of the machine is screwed down to the machine during trans-
portation and must be detached prior to being put into operation.
• Please return the transport aids (transport device, heavy load rollers, etc.) after
the machine has been commissioned.
45
Transport and installation
Storage information • The machine is delivered in a preserved state and can be stored at a closed, dry
location for up to 6 months. If the intended time of storage is longer, a suitable
long-term preservation is required (HERMLE AG must be consulted about this).
• If the machine is stored correctly, its properties will remain unchanged. Under
unfavorable storage conditions and if the machine is stored incorrectly, its proper-
ties will be adversely affected. These changes may be caused, for example, by
extreme variations in temperature or humidity.
Important
Humid storage rooms of more than 65% of relative humidity and a variable ambient
temperature are unsuitable. Make sure that no condensation takes place.

Preparations related
Note to the machine loca-
tion
To ensure problem-free and safe installation of the machine, in addition to
long-term machining precision, please make the following preparations related
to the machine location:
If the transport dimensions of the machine, with a standard transport, are too large
for your facilities, please contact the Hermle company!
47
Transport and installation
When installing the machine on top of the ceiling or bearing construction, a cer-
tain amount of yield and bend must be assumed for the floor beams. This could
cause a breakthrough in the ceiling or bearing construction and could also have a
negative effect on machining precision. The following requirements must therefore
urgently be observed:
– Make certain the weight and weighted forces of the machine are safely con-
tained by the bearing constructions and have a structural engineer provide
proof of sufficient carrying capacity.
– If at all possible, do not place the machine near the middle of beams
(where the deflection of the beam is greatest). Instead place it close to
where there is a support.
48
Transport and installation
• Check the floor of the machine location to ensure that oil cannot leak
through
The oils, greases and cooling lubricants used by the machine are water pollut-
ants. Because of this, environmental protection requirements must be taken into
consideration and observed. These polluting substances must not get into water

Procedure:
! Danger
When transporting the additional magazine by crane and heavy load rollers, sus-
pended loads or wrong handling can result in serious injuries that may become
fatal.
For this reason, please heed the following instructions:
• Transport of the additional magazine by crane and heavy load rollers may only
be performed by sufficiently qualified personnel or by a forwarding company
authorized by Hermle AG!
• Only use means of transport and lifting tackle (cranes, cross-beams, ropes,
heavy load rollers, etc.) having sufficient lifting power, i.e. more than the indi-
cated transport weight!
• To transport the additional magazine by crane, use only a suitable H-frame.
• When transporting the additional magazine by crane and heavy load rollers,
observe the required:
– Minimum lifting force of the crane of 6000 kg
– Minimum load capacity of the crane cross-beam: 6000 kg
– Individual load capacity of each heavy load roller: at least 5000 kg
– Length of the lifting ropes, front min. 1100 mm / rear min. 1440 mm
– Minimum load capacity of each heavy load roller: 3000 kg
• If no crane meeting the requirements is available on-site, contact a forwarding
company qualified to transport the additional magazine by means of an ap-
propriate crane!
Other forms of transport are not allowed except transporting by forklift truck
and heavy load rollers!
• Affix your lifting tackle only to the lifting eyes provided for this purpose!
• Make sure that the weight is evenly distributed to all lifting tackles!
• Lift and put down the additional magazine only suspended horizontally, steadily,
and without jerky movements!
• During transport of the additional magazine, keep unauthorized persons out of
the danger area!
• People must never be allowed to stand under heavy loads!
• Make certain the transport routes are safe and take appropriate safety meas-
ures, if necessary!
• If the additional magazine is not being moved on the heavy load rollers, the heavy
load rollers must be secured to prevent it from rolling away unintentionally.
98
Transport and installation
• Insert one of the transport ropes from the crane beam into each of the lifting eyes
on the body of the additional magazine (illustration 1).
• Tighten the transport ropes carefully, making sure that the transport ropes are free
and will not damage any part of the additional magazine upon lifting.
• Please unpack the additional magazine and its components carefully, check
whether the delivered goods are complete and inspect them for possible damage
during transport. Should any damage be detected, please notify the Hermle AG
Service Department at once.
• Loosen all three bolted connections holding the precision pads to the transport
pallet.
• Fasten the transport bracket provided [A] to the additional magazine and screw
the appropriate heavy load roller mechanism [B] with the threaded rod [1] securely
to the transport bracket [A].
Make sure that the threaded rod [1] is screwed into the heavy load roller mecha-
nism [B] up to the stop and the lock nut [2] is loose.
The threaded rod [1] must be screwed far enough into the transport bracket [A]
so that it still protrudes 50 mm out of the top of the transport bracket [A]
(graphic 2)!
• Secure each threaded rod [1] by tightening the lock nut [2] down against the
heavy load roller mechanism [B] (illustration 2).
• Screw in the adjusting feet [C] of the enclosure panels completely and remove
the drawbar [D] of the attached heavy load roller vehicle (illustration 3).
• Lift the additional magazine vertically and carefully by only the amount needed
and pull the pallet away.
99
Transport and installation
• Position the two other heavy load roller mechanisms [G] under the two other
previously attached transport brackets [F] (illustration 4).
• Screw the two heavy load roller mechanisms [G] each together with a threaded
rod [1] on the transport bracket [F].
Make sure that the threaded rod [1] is screwed into the heavy load roller mecha-
nism [G] up to the stop and the lock nut [2] is loose.
The threaded rod [1] must be screwed far enough into the transport bracket [F]
so that it still protrudes 76 mm out of the top of the transport bracket [F]
(illustration 4)!
• Secure each threaded rod [1] by tightening the lock nut [2] down against the heavy
load roller mechanism [G] (illustration 4).
• Lower the additional magazine carefully and evenly onto the heavy load rollers
and make sure that the additional magazine is resting on the heavy load rollers
and not on other parts of the machine. Otherwise the threaded rods [1] must be
screwed correspondingly further into the transport brackets.
• Re-attach the previously removed drawbar to the heavy load roller mechanism.
• Now transport the additional magazine to its installation location (close to the
machine) on the heavy load rollers.
Leave the heavy load rollers attached to the additional magazine.
• Secure the heavy load rollers to prevent them from rolling away unintentionally!
• Hermle Service will bolt the precision pads to the floor contact areas, connect
the additional magazine to the machine and align it precisely during the machine
start-up procedure.
