Our best estimate for the Hwacheon Hi-TECH 450B is $95,000 - $150,000. This is an estimate for a cnc lathes / turning centers in this class, not a quote from Hwacheon; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/hwacheon-hi-tech-450b#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
The 450A has a 10 in chuck, A2-8 nose, 3,500 rpm, Ø90 mm (Ø3.5 in) bore and Ø76 mm (Ø3.0 in) bar. The 450B has a 12 in chuck, A2-8, 2,500 rpm, Ø105 mm (Ø4.1 in) bore and Ø89 mm (Ø3.5 in) bar. The 450C has a 15 in chuck, A2-11, 1,800 rpm, Ø132 mm (Ø5.2 in) bore and Ø116 mm (Ø4.6 in) bar, and no sub-spindle version.
Both turn up to Ø420 mm (Ø16.5 in). The Hi-TECH 350 runs faster, at 5,000 rpm on the 350A and 4,000 rpm on the 350B, but takes bar only up to Ø76 mm (Ø3.0 in) and is listed in Y-axis versions. The 450B takes Ø89 mm (Ø3.5 in) bar in a 12 in chuck at 2,500 rpm and turns up to 737 mm (29.0 in) long.
The Hi-TECH 550 is the next size up: Ø590 mm (Ø23.2 in) turning diameter, 15 in or 18 in chucks on A2-11, Ø116 mm (Ø4.6 in) bar, 2,000 rpm and a 30 / 22 kW (40.2 / 29.5 hp) spindle, with beds up to 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of turning length. The 450B keeps a 12 in chuck, Ø89 mm (Ø3.5 in) bar and 2,500 rpm.
Yes, on the (Y)SMC version: an 8 in chuck on an A2-6 nose running to 4,000 rpm. The sub-spindle is offered on the 450A and 450B only. On milling versions turning length is 614 mm (24.2 in), or 1,214 mm (47.8 in) on the L bed.
