The price estimate for the Hwacheon VESTA-1300B+ 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-vesta-1300b-plus#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
In BT-40: 10,000, 12,000 or 15,000 rpm, all rated 18.5 / 11 kW (24.8 / 14.8 hp). In BT-50: 6,000 rpm rated 18.5 / 15 kW (24.8 / 20.1 hp), or 8,000 rpm rated 15 / 11 kW (20.1 / 14.8 hp). The BT-50 spindles have a Ø90 mm (Ø3.5 in) bearing bore against Ø70 mm (Ø2.8 in) for BT-40.
For the 6,000 rpm BT-50 spindle rated 18.5 / 15 kW (24.8 / 20.1 hp), which the VESTA-1300+ does not list. The VESTA-1300+ is the faster machine, with 36 / 36 / 30 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 1,181 ipm) rapids against 30 / 30 / 24 m/min here. Travels, table and the 1,300 kg (2,866 lb) load rating are the same.
30 with a BT-40 spindle. With BT-50 the standard magazine holds 24 and a 32-tool magazine is optional. Tool selection is memory random. BT-40 tools are limited to Ø75 mm (Ø3.0 in), 300 mm (11.8 in) and 8 kg (18 lb) with neighbours loaded; BT-50 tools to Ø125 mm (Ø4.9 in), 350 mm (13.8 in) and 20 kg (44 lb).
45 kVA, or 55 kVA for BT-50 with through-spindle coolant, and air at 0.5 ~ 0.7 MPa x 690 NL/min. The installation footprint including accessories is 4,787 x 3,721 mm (188.5 x 146.5 in), or 3,613 x 4,559 mm (142.2 x 179.5 in) for the rear type. Weight runs from 9,000 kg (19,841 lb) for BT-40 to 11,000 kg (24,251 lb) for BT-50 with 32 tools.
