CNC Horizontal Lathe

High performance mid-size 15”–18" horizontal turning center. Hi-TECH 550 is equipped with the extra rigid tool post of highest durability to deliver the most stable, precision machining performance even at hard turning.

• Heavy duty cutting. Hwacheon's Hi-TECH 550 incorporates tough box way design which makes it an ideal turning center for heavy duty hard turning. It's equipped with a long bed for extra-length workpieces, and with the programmable tailstock and steady rest for stability and precision. Machining precision is enhanced even further because all of the Hi-TECH 550's axes can be installed with highly accurate linear scales; and the fast turret indexing time of 0.2 seconds per step will increase your productivity.
• Hand-scraped to perfection. The guide-ways are hand-scraped and polished to thehighest precision based on Hwacheon‘s 60 yearscraftmanship experience, this to reduce vibration and allows precision feed during heavy operations.
• High Torque Transmission.  The gear-driven transmission provides power and versatility. It provides high torque at low speeds without compromising high-speed operation and performance. The transmission assembly and the spindle motor have been designed away from the spindle to limit heat and vibration transfer.
