The price estimate for the Hwacheon H6 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/hwacheon-h6#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
Both are rated 35 / 22 kW (46.9 / 29.5 hp) with a Ø100 mm (Ø3.9 in) bearing and BBT-50 taper. The 8K is gear-driven and runs to 8,000 rpm, the better match for heavy cuts in steel. The 12K is a built-in motor spindle to 12,000 rpm for faster finishing and small tools.
The Hwacheon H8 has 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) pallets rated 2,200 kgf (4,850 lb) and weighs 33,000 kgf (72,752 lb). The H6 has 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallets rated 1,600 kgf (3,527 lb) and weighs 28,850 kgf (63,603 lb). Spindles, taper and magazine options are the same on both.
40 as standard, with options of 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 tools. Selection is by fixed address. Tools can be up to Ø125 mm (Ø4.9 in) with adjacent pockets full or Ø300 mm (Ø11.8 in) with them empty, 550 mm (21.7 in) long and 30 kgf (66 lb).
Up to Ø1,050 x 1,300 mm (Ø41.3 x 51.2 in) and 1,600 kgf (3,527 lb) on a 630 x 630 mm pallet. Travels are 1,050 / 900 / 1,000 mm (41.3 / 35.4 / 39.4 in) on X, Y and Z.
