The one-hit set-up pedigree of Starrag’s Heckert DBF horizontal machining centres is unquestionable. With multi-tasking DBF radial (U-axis) facing head, the machine is unrivalled in multi-face, multi-faceting cutting – including conical and contour turning - slashing processing times on oil & gas sector valves and fluid ends, in one case from 20 hours to just 4.5.
