This Heckert FW 250X1000 is a milling machine — sometimes referred to as a horizontal mill — used for cutting, shaping, and finishing metal workpieces by feeding them against a rotating cutter. Heckert, produced under the VEB Werkzeugmaschinenfabrik Auerbach banner within the East German "Fritz Heckert" combine, was a well-regarded manufacturer of industrial machine tools known for building robust, precision-engineered equipment intended for demanding production environments.
Built in 1979, this example is described by the seller as complete, fully functional, and ready for immediate use. The machine weighs approximately 1,700 kg, a substantial mass that contributes directly to the rigidity and vibration damping essential for accurate, repeatable machining operations. The working table measures 250 × 1,000 mm and is fitted with T-slots for workholding, with the 1,000 mm length allowing the processing of larger-format components.
The spindle operates across a speed range of 630 to 1,800 rpm, and the machine is equipped with both mechanical and automatic feeds across its axes, giving the operator flexibility for a variety of milling tasks. Power is rated at 5.8 kW, supplied via a three-phase 380 V / 50 Hz connection. The control circuit runs at 220 V, with a rated current of 16 A and circuit protection set at 25 A. The full control panel features handwheels and feed controls.
Included with the machine are a machine vice mounted on the table, a working lamp, and a coolant system. The machine is located in Poland and is offered at $2,300.
