Chain Type Tool Magazine: High-Capacity Efficiency for Uninterrupted Productivity

Designed for complex workpieces and high-volume tool requirements, the HYDEX HYC Series Chain Type Tool Magazine is the ultimate storage solution for advanced CNC machining centers. By combining intelligent drive technology with an optimized protective structure, the HYC series ensures precise tool selection while maximizing machine uptime and serviceability.

Smart Dual-Speed Drive System

Equipped with a high-performance Pole-Changing Motor, the HYC series supports seamless high/low gear switching and continuous non-stop operation. This allows for lightning-fast tool retrieval over long distances with minimal noise, ensuring a smoother and more efficient production flow.

Total Contamination Shield (Enclosed Back Design)

The rear of the magazine features a fully enclosed architecture, specifically engineered to block coolant spray, metal chips, and dust from entering the internal transmission zone. This robust protection significantly extends the lifespan of critical components and ensures reliability in heavy-duty environments

Front-Accessible Maintenance Architecture

Setting the "Gold Standard" for serviceability, all mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic/hydraulic components are strategically positioned at the front of the magazine. This allows technicians to perform assembly, inspections, or repairs with ease, drastically reducing MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) and getting your machine back to work faster.
