The price estimate for the Hwacheon L1 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-l1#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
Length. The L1 1500 has 1,500 mm (59.1 in) of X travel, a 1,500 x 900 mm (59.1 x 35.4 in) table and weighs 13,000 kg (28,660 lb). The L1 2500 has 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of X, a 2,500 x 900 mm (98.4 x 35.4 in) table and weighs 16,000 kg (35,274 lb). Y, Z, spindles and the 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) table rating are the same.
Two BT-40 spindles: the 12K at 12,000 rpm and 18.5 / 11 kW (24.8 / 14.8 hp), and the 20K at 20,000 rpm and 37 / 18.5 kW (49.6 / 24.8 hp). Both take MAS-403 BT-40 shanks with a MAS-P40T-1 (45°) pull stud.
The Hwacheon L2 keeps the 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) rating but widens the table to 2,500 x 1,100 mm (98.4 x 43.3 in) or 3,000 x 1,100 mm (118.1 x 43.3 in). The Hwacheon L3 has a 3,000 x 1,800 mm (118.1 x 70.9 in) table rated 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). The L1 has the narrowest table, 900 mm (35.4 in), and the lightest machines.
Up to Ø75 mm (Ø3.0 in) with adjacent tools in place or Ø150 mm (Ø5.9 in) with the neighbouring pockets empty, up to 350 mm (13.8 in) long and 8 kg (17.6 lb). The magazine holds 30 tools, 40 as an option, selected by memory random or, optionally, by fixed address.
45 kVA at 220V, 60Hz and compressed air at 0.5 to 0.7 MPa x 690 Nℓ/min. Floor area is 6,340 x 3,585 mm (249.6 x 141.1 in) for the L1 1500 and 8,540 x 3,585 mm (336.2 x 141.1 in) for the L1 2500, and both are 3,060 mm (120.5 in) high.
