The price estimate for the Hwacheon SIMPLEX-2 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-simplex-2#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
Sixteen steps from 75 to 3,600 rpm on a 60 Hz supply, and sixteen steps from 60 to 3,000 rpm on 50 Hz. The motor is listed at 2 / 1 kW (2.7 / 1.3 hp) for its 2p / 4p windings and the spindle takes N.T. 40 tooling.
Its spec table lists no tool magazine, tool capacity or tool change time, and it does list a manual quill with 140 mm (5.5 in) of travel. Confirm with Hwacheon how tools are changed before planning jobs that need many tools in one cycle.
The head swivels ±45° to the left or right, so holes and faces at an angle can be machined without tilting the part. The overarm travels 450 mm (17.7 in), moving the spindle over the table, and the quill gives 140 mm (5.5 in) of manual feed.
The VESTA-850B is a machining center with a 1,050 x 600 mm (41.3 x 23.6 in) table rated 800 kg (1,764 lb), an 8,000 rpm BT-40 spindle at 18.5 / 11 kW (24.8 / 14.8 hp) and 24 tools. The SIMPLEX-2 is a far smaller machine: 300 kg (661 lb) on a 1,100 x 280 mm (43.3 x 11.0 in) table and a 2 / 1 kW (2.7 / 1.3 hp) spindle.
Floor space of 2,500 x 2,200 mm (98.4 x 86.6 in), 2,265 mm (89.2 in) of height and a floor for 2,500 kg (5,512 lb). It takes 13 kVA at 220V, 60Hz. The table lists no compressed-air requirement.
