HERMLE showcases next-generation machines and automation at Open House

For over 25 years, Hermle has been providing innovative automation solutions for a wide variety of parts. During the Hermle Open House from May 13 to 16, 2025, in Gosheim (Germany), the machine manufacturer will present the next generation of machining centers and automation solutions. A highlight will be the premiere of the RS 2 GEN2 robotic system.
 
Following the successful market launch of the GEN2 versions of the C 650, C 32, and C 42 models in 2024, three additional GEN2 models will be unveiled at the Open House. From the Performance Line series, the C 250 and C 400, and from the High-Performance Line, the C 22. This brings the total to six out of nine base models now available in GEN2 versions. The C 12, C 52, and C 62 are expected to follow in September, around the time of EMO, also as GEN2 models.
 

RS 2 GEN2 robotic system

A key highlight during Hermle’s Open House is the premiere of the RS 2 GEN2 robotic system. During the event, this system will be linked to a 5-axis C 32 machining center and equipped with a dual hybrid gripper, automatic jaw exchange, and entirely new rack modules. The C 32 is also part of the second generation. With this complete cell, Hermle demonstrates an economical and fully automated pallet and part handling system. Naturally, not only the RS 2 GEN2 robotic system will be showcased live, but also all other Hermle automation solutions, including the HS flex and HS flex heavy handling systems, as well as the RS 05-2, RS 1, and RS 2 robotic systems.

Compelling demonstrations

In addition to automation, the focus is also on the machining centers. Live demonstrations will be held during the in-house exhibition. As we have come to expect from Hermle, application engineers, in collaboration with partner companies, will showcase a variety of remarkable workpieces. These workpieces originate from industries such as aerospace, tool and mold making, medical technology, mechanical engineering, and model making. Moreover, advanced machining techniques such as turning, grinding, broaching, and gear cutting will be demonstrated.
