Helios Star is an advanced 5-axis vertical machining center equipped with an interpolated turning table, designed by Helios Automazioni for the processing of different shapes and sizes marble blocks. Star was born for the marble industry, it has a wide range of applications, from the artistic field to restoration and molds. This impressive machine can produce complex 360° works such as statues, vases, capitals, bathtubs, and many other elements of interior design, outdoor, and urban furniture.
Though its superior functions, the vertical machining center Star is very simple to use and program thanks to the powerful integrated software by Helios Automazioni, designed to be accessible and intuitive for all operators.
The integrated software can import and use all types of three-dimensional modelling CAD files and files from reverse engineering processes (laser acquisition systems or digital scanners).
The structure of the machine is stainless steel and aluminium constructed to ensure extreme durability over time. The mechanics are driven by advanced software that allows to manage all the processing phases from roughing to perfect and accurate finishing in the finest details.
The use of recirculating ball screws and guides, and Harmonic Drive reducers ensures maximum precision in the movements and perfection in the axis interpolations.
The latest generation electronic components with Ethercat technology allow real-time control of machine parameters and their monitoring even on remote. This brings very important advantages for process optimization and remote diagnostics.
Available in different sizes, the Star series can be customized according to specific needs and the size of the pieces to be fabricated, offering flexibility in the production of artworks and design elements.
• Stone artwork: Helios Star is ideal for stone artwork fabrication, thanks to precise detailing and high-quality finishes.
• Interior design elements: the machine processes complex pieces for interior design, offering accurate details and great aesthetic results.
• Creativity: the 5 interpolated axes and the turning table allows to create original work and entwined details with great versatility.
