The price estimate for the Hwacheon MEGAIII-160 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-megaiii-160#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
Four: 6,000, 8,000, 10,000 and 12,000 mm (236.22 / 314.96 / 393.7 / 472.44 in) between centres, with 6,300 to 12,300 mm (248.03 to 484.25 in) of Z travel. Machine length is 11,500 / 13,500 / 15,500 / 17,500 mm (452.76 / 531.5 / 610.24 / 688.98 in).
The MEGAIII-200 swings Ø2,000 mm (Ø78.74 in), has a 63 in chuck, 136 / 92 kW (182.38 / 123.37 hp) and 12,713 kgf·m (124,672 Nm), but runs only to 130 rpm. The MEGAIII-160 is the faster of the two at 325 rpm, with 5,488 kgf·m (53,819 Nm) and a 40 in chuck.
Both swing Ø1,600 mm and carry 15 t (33,069 lb). The MEGA-R100 has more power, 114 / 71 kW (152.9 / 95.2 hp), and runs to 500 rpm, but its torque is 3,172.5 kgf·m (31,112 Nm). The MEGAIII-160 has 5,488 kgf·m (53,819 Nm), a 40 in chuck and beds up to 12,000 mm (472.44 in).
50 t (110,230 lb) on the 6000 bed, 54 t (119,048 lb) on the 8000, 58 t (127,867 lb) on the 10000 and 62 t (136,685 lb) on the 12000. Plan the foundation and the rigging around those figures and a 3,100 mm (122.05 in) height.
