The price estimate for the Hwacheon VT-650 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-vt-650#price; the request is passed to Hwacheon or an authorised dealer.
MG adds a 16-tool CAPTO C5 magazine and reduces the turret to 10 stations. MC adds driven tools of 5.5 / 3.7 kW (7.4 / 5.0 hp) and 3,000 rpm with 0.0001° C-axis indexing. 2SP is a twin-spindle machine with 18 + 18 in chucks and a 2-path control. YMC adds a ±125 mm (±4.9 in) Y axis with box guideways.
On MG versions the magazine holds 16 CAPTO C5 tools (16 / 48 on the MG/YMC). Tools can be up to Ø75 mm (Ø3.0 in) in diameter, 400 mm (15.7 in) long and 20 kgf (44 lb).
1,500 rpm as standard, or 2,000 rpm with option 1 or option 2, on an A2-11 nose with a Ø160 mm (Ø6.3 in) front bearing. Power is 22 / 18.5 kW (29.5 / 24.8 hp) in every version.
Both are listed with ±125 mm of Y and the same Ø800 mm (Ø31.5 in) by 750 mm (29.5 in) envelope. The VT-650Y has its own page and table, which lists chuck options of 15, 21 and 24 in and a high-torque 2,000 rpm spindle option, so compare the two quotes line by line.
The standard machine weighs 10,000 kgf (22,046 lb), MG and MC versions 11,100 kgf (24,471 lb), the YMC 13,000 ~ 14,000 kgf (28,660 ~ 30,864 lb) and the 2SP 20,000 ~ 22,200 kgf (44,092 ~ 48,942 lb).
