Tradition Meets Modernity

Over 80 years of detailed experience: Hwacheon combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. Our expertise in machine tool manufacturing ensures high production quality and continuous innovation for future-proof concepts in the German market.

Dynamic Linear Guides

CUTEX-240 has Linearführungen available

Speed and Dynamics Combined: Linear roller guides provide high dynamics and rapid traverse speeds. The workpiece weight is transferred linearly to the rollers, which must withstand enormous pressure at contact points. Therefore, we exclusively use linear roller guides from renowned manufacturers.

Features of CUTEX-240

Counter Spindle

CUTEX-240 has Gegenspindel available

Precision in Every Dimension: Lathes with a counter spindle enable back-side machining of workpieces and can alternatively be used as an NC tailstock. This back-side machining saves time and effort by eliminating the need for re-clamping on another machine. It also improves precision since the workpiece does not need realignment. For enhanced process stability and safe ejection of finished workpieces, optional pneumatic or mechanical ejectors and spindle flushing can be added.

Speed and Dynamics Combined: Linear roller guides provide high dynamics and rapid traverse speeds. The workpiece weight is transferred linearly to the rollers, which must withstand enormous pressure at contact points. Therefore, we exclusively use linear roller guides from renowned manufacturers.

Driven Tools

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.

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.
