The price estimate for the Hwacheon SMART UaX 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-smart-uax#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
A taller build of the same machine. Height rises from 2,862 mm (112.7 in) to 3,012 mm (118.6 in) and weight from 10,000 kg (22,046 lb) to 11,500 kg (25,353 lb). Its table has seven 18 x 100 mm T-slots where the standard table is grid type.
Tools up to Ø33 mm (Ø1.3 in), 280 mm (11.0 in) long and 3 kg (6.6 lb), in a 50-tool armless fixed-address magazine. Shanks are MAS-403 BT-40, with HSK-A63 as an option. Larger cutters such as face mills are outside the listed limits.
Both are rated 18.5 / 11 kW (24.8 / 14.8 hp). The 12K reaches 12,000 rpm with grease-lubricated bearings; the 20K reaches 20,000 rpm with oil-jet lubrication. With tools capped at Ø33 mm (Ø1.3 in), the 20K gives small cutters more of the surface speed they need.
Against the SMART Ua STEEL, the SMART UaX has a larger 1,200 x 700 mm (47.2 x 27.6 in) table but a lower 400 kg (882 lb) rating, 50 tools against 120, spindles to 20,000 rpm against 24,000 rpm, and a dust collector. It weighs 10,000 kg (22,046 lb), half the 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) of the SMART Ua STEEL.
