Tradition Meets Modernity
Flat Guides
Excellent Damping Properties: Box or flat guides effectively absorb vibrations from the machining process by transferring them into the machine bed due to their large contact surface. Hand-fitted and scraped by experienced staff, these guides ensure precision. Central oil lubrication provides continuous lubrication with bedway oil, while the Turcite coating on the sliding surface offers excellent emergency running properties. Machines with flat guides are more durable and can handle higher chip volumes. Thanks to these unique features, they are considered particularly powerful and reliable.

Innovative Air-Floating System
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.

Powerful Gear Spindle
Maximum Power and Torque: Gear spindles deliver high torque, ideal for heavy-duty machining processes. The innovative oil-jet cooling system maintains a consistent temperature and ensures stable performance even during prolonged machining operations. Large spindle bearings and shaft diameters enhance rigidity and durability under high loads.
- Spindle power35/22kW
- Spindle speed8000 (12000)rpm
- Spindle torque1654 / 1040Nm
- Tool shankBBT-50 (HSK-100)
High-Quality Spindle
Consistent Cooling and Lubrication for Maximum Precision: Our in-house manufactured spindles are cooled and lubricated by an innovative air-oil aerosol system, while temperature sensors ensure constant monitoring. This advanced technology guarantees exceptional durability and outstanding smoothness. Experience maximum precision with minimal thermal growth for consistent performance even under the most demanding conditions.
Internal Coolant Supply
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.
High-Quality Pretensioned Ball Screws
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.
Automatic Workpiece Changer
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.
Excellent Chip Disposal
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.
