deal for high variance (high mix).

A proven concept for greater productivity offers a combination of a compact HEDELIUS 5-axis machining centre and beginner-friendly MARATHON automation. Our in-house pallet handling systems really come into their own when manufacturing repeat parts or small to medium series. Perfectly harmonised with each other, this combination is particularly impressive thanks to its consistent operating concept.

Discover our diverse automation solutions which, in combination with your ACURA machining centre, lead to an increase in productivity, improved delivery reliability and relief for your employees.

Systems in the MARATHON series
  • Perfect accessibility.

    The work areas of the ACURA machining centres remain fully accessible despite being connected to a MARATHON automation system. This means that crane loading or the production of single parts during the day shift is possible without restriction.

  • Ergonomic design.

    Ergonomic aspects are a top priority throughout the entire development process of our CNC solutions. This is reflected, among other things, in the adapted loading heights of the loading stations, which enable the user to set up easily.

  • Intuitive operating concept.

    Our automation systems are extremely easy to operate, especially thanks to our specially developed order management software. Intuitive use is additionally supported by a convenient touch user interface (PL406 excluded).

  • Compact type.

    The MARATHON automation solutions also score particularly highly in terms of their small space requirements thanks to their compact design. This makes it possible to integrate an automated HEDELIUS machining centre into existing production facilities.

Pallets and workpiece automation with HEDELIUS.

The user is the focus at HEDELIUS. This is why the MARATHON automations have been equipped with many technical details, such as the standard rotating set-up station or the pneumatic locking of the pallet on the set-up station for convenient clamping of workpieces. 

In order to optimise the production process, set-up and clamping points are increasingly becoming the focus of production managers. In the past, large tool magazines and zero-point clamping technology have therefore already become established in many operating companies for tooling optimisation. With the development of the MARATHON pallet automation system, HEDELIUS is now taking the next step to further close the spindle running time of the machine and thus productivity.
