Working precision of a professional

BlueMax Modular from Hettich

BlueMax automatic drilling and insertion machines are just one example of other fabricator specific solutions with which Hettich concentrates the endeavours towards rationalisation in the trades and interior fitting work on one product. BlueMax efficiently drills holes and hole lines for fittings while additionally inserting hinges, mounting plates and connecting fittings. The modular BlueMax system gives the fabricator the capability of assembling carcases in full and provides the right solution for any need.

Whatever the configuration, BlueMax Modular makes easy work of ensuring precision results in the workshop. Interchangeable drilling units save resetting time on all modules. A simple machine setting process and the pneumatic hold down clamp optimise work flows. "Basic Plus" additionally provides a 550 mm depth adjustment facility with LCD display for exact positioning. Additional adjustment capabilities simplify the process of machining workpieces.

In the "Advanced Plus" configuration, the large work bench and the possibility of laterally adjusting the drilling and insertion machine by a total of 2250 mm by LCD display take every effort out of the work process as there is hardly any need to move workpieces. Added convenience comes from the rotatable latch lever profile which can be adjusted in any chosen way for four different basic settings.

In addition to lateral adjustment, the machine features a 550 mm depth adjustment facility for which an LCD display also simplifies exact positioning. A wide range of adjustment capabilities make it possible to machine workpieces in full.

BlueMax Modular Professional is shown to be an efficient machining centre in the workshop. The pneumatic caterpillar drive allows you to drill System 32 hole lines, with the automatic drilling unit traversing all by itself. The five spindle horizontal drilling unit drills dowel holes in the front end.
