Capabilities

Fritz Heckert milling machines like the FU 315/FW 400 are versatile metal processing tools designed for precision cutting, shaping, and finishing of metal parts. These machines can handle both CNC (computer-controlled) and conventional manual operations, making them flexible for various production needs. The FU 315 and FW 400 models excel at creating detailed features, drilling holes, and producing components with tight tolerances across different metals including steel, aluminum, and cast iron.

Industries & Uses

These machines serve manufacturers in automotive, aerospace, machinery, tool-making, and general metalworking industries. Small job shops and contract manufacturers rely on them for custom part production, while larger facilities use them for batch work. They're equally valuable for businesses starting metal fabrication operations, as they offer the precision needed for quality work without requiring extensive automation investment.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating a used Fritz Heckert milling machine, inspect the spindle for runout and noise—this is the most critical wear point. Check the table and bed surfaces for wear, scoring, or rust. Request complete maintenance records, especially spindle servicing and ballscrew condition. Test all axes for smooth movement and backlash. Verify electrical and hydraulic systems function properly. Ask about cutting fluid type used and whether the machine has been regularly lubricated. Original documentation confirming CNC or conventional controls helps clarify capabilities.
