The price estimate for the Hwacheon HiREX-6000 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-hirex-6000#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
The HiREX-6000 has 6,000 mm (236.2 in) of X, 620 mm (24.4 in) of Y and a 650 x 6,500 mm (25.6 x 255.9 in) table rated at 7,300 kg (16,094 lb). The Hwacheon HiREX-5000 has 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X, 520 mm (20.5 in) of Y and a 550 x 5,500 mm (21.7 x 216.5 in) table rated at 5,800 kg (12,787 lb). Spindles, magazine and control are the same.
Rapid traverse is 20 m/min (787 ipm) on X and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Y and Z. On a 6,000 mm (236.2 in) axis that makes the order of operations matter: finishing all the work at one end before moving on saves the long traverses.
A 10K direct-drive BT-40 spindle running to 10,000 rpm with 15 / 11 kW (20.1 / 14.8 hp), or 18.5 / 15 kW (24.8 / 20.1 hp) optional, and a 12K spindle running to 12,000 rpm with 18.5 / 15 kW (24.8 / 20.1 hp). The 10K is fan cooled and the 12K oil cooled. Through-spindle coolant is an option on both.
Floor space of 10,030 x 3,175 mm (394.9 x 125.0 in), a 45 kVA supply and 0.5 ~ 0.7 MPa x 690 NL/min of air. The coolant tank holds 960 L (254 US gal), the machine weighs 30,000 kg (66,138 lb) and stands 3,000 mm (118.1 in) high, or 3,250 mm (128.0 in) with through-spindle coolant.
