High-Torque Drives for Heavy Machining: Lathes with gear spindles offer significantly higher torque than those with motor spindles. By selecting the appropriate gear ratio, torque can be optimally utilized within the speed range of the ideal cutting speed. Large spindle bearings and shaft diameters robustly absorb process forces and peaks, ensuring high durability. The gear stage can be conveniently selected via M-functions.

Precision and Versatility Combined: Driven tools on lathes significantly expand machining capabilities. They enable milling, drilling, and other processes directly on the lathe, reducing re-clamping operations and minimizing downtime. Using various tools in a single setup increases machining accuracy and boosts overall productivity.

Stability for Precise Results: The steady rest ensures maximum precision for long workpieces through optimal support. It reduces vibrations, improves surface quality, and enables precise machining even for demanding projects.

Air Assistance for Smooth Precision and Perfect Control!: By using compressed air in the gap of the flat guides, we effectively reduce breakaway torque and minimize the slip-stick effect, ensuring optimal distribution of bedway oil and smooth movements even over short distances. At Hwacheon, we rely on solid craftsmanship and manufacture our flat guides in-house, including Turcite coating and precisely machined lubrication and air grooves. This technology ensures uniform motion behavior, resulting in the highest contour and positioning accuracy.

ICS Makes the Difference!: The internal coolant supply (ICS) delivers coolant directly to the cutting edge, optimizing lubrication and chip removal. It boosts productivity, extends tool life, and enhances process reliability.

Thermal Stability for Precision and Reliability: Pretensioned ball screws reliably and stably compensate for thermal expansion. This technology prevents unwanted elongation of the spindles, ensuring lasting precision and consistently high machining accuracy over extended operating periods.

Autonomy and Efficiency Maximized: Automatic workpiece changers extend a machine’s unmanned operating time by independently changing workpieces without operator intervention. This supports multi-machine operation, optimizes cost-effectiveness, and maximizes machine utilization during extended operating periods.

Perfect Chip Removal for Your Machine!: Our innovative chip disposal systems reliably remove chips, reduce heat, and optimize machining. High-quality components ensure uninterrupted operation and maximum process reliability.
