HSM

The MIKRON MILL HSM 500 is a high-speed machining center designed without compromise for tool and mold makers who demand the highest accuracy, extreme dynamics, and best surface quality. Built around a polymer concrete base, absolute optical linear scales, and a fully liquid-cooled structure, it delivers consistent precision from the very first part to the last.

The HSM 500 is equipped with a suite of intelligent modules that bring precision, protection, and productivity to every cycle. The Operator Support System (OSS) optimizes dynamic behavior to reduce machining times and improve surface quality. Intelligent Thermal Control (ITC) actively compensates for thermal displacement, allowing operators to start precision work immediately, without waiting for thermal steady-state.

Every MIKRON MILL HSM 500 is assembled in an air-conditioned workshop and validated with highly accurate laser measuring systems according to ISO 230. A compact touch probe enables in-process calibration and workpiece measurement directly on the machine, ensuring that every part meets the required tolerances before leaving the working area.

The HSM 500 is also available in a dedicated Graphite version — specifically engineered for the high-speed milling of graphite electrodes for EDM applications. The machine combines the HSM 500's precision and thermal stability with a fully enclosed and protected structure, an Amano suction unit with two separate dust bins for powerful graphite dust extraction, and a high-speed STEP TEC spindle at 42,000 min⁻¹. All axes are fully covered and protected, and automatic central lubrication ensures lasting accuracy and reliability throughout continuous graphite production.
