Our best estimate for the Hwacheon Vesta 660 is $70,000 - $115,000. This is an estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class, not a quote from Hwacheon; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/hwacheon-vesta-660#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
No. It is not in Hwacheon's current lineup and may be an older model. The listed figures have not been checked against Hwacheon, so confirm travels, spindle rating and control on any machine you look at.
The Vesta 660 is listed with 660 x 510 x 560 mm (26.0 x 20.1 x 22.0 in) of travel, a 15 kW (20 hp) spindle, 24 tools and a 600 kg (1,323 lb) workpiece limit. The Vesta 500 is listed with 500 x 400 x 400 mm (19.7 x 15.7 x 15.7 in), 11 kW (15 hp), 16 tools and 300 kg (661 lb).
The listed control is a Fanuc 0i-MF Plus, with a 31i-B as an option. On a used machine, check which one is fitted and which software options are enabled, since that decides what programs and probing cycles it will run.
Confirm the spindle runs smoothly to 12,000 RPM, the 24-tool changer completes changes near the listed 1.6 sec, and the axes hold the listed ±0.005 mm positioning and ±0.003 mm repeatability on a current laser or ballbar test.
