Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Hwacheon MEGA+120 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Hwacheon MEGA+120 is a large flat-bed CNC lathe with a Ø1,200 mm (Ø47.24 in) swing over the bed, Ø820 mm (Ø32.28 in) of turning diameter over the cross slide and four bed lengths from 3,000 to 6,000 mm (118.11 to 236.22 in) between centres. X travel is 625 mm (24.61 in) and Z travel equals the centre distance.
The spindle is ordered by bore. With a Ø155 mm (Ø6.1 in) bore on an A2-15 nose it runs from 5 to 750 rpm; the Ø255 mm (Ø10.04 in) bore, also on A2-15, runs to 650 rpm; and the Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) bore moves to an A2-20 nose and 400 rpm. The gearbox has three automatic ranges. Motor rating depends on the control: 45 / 37 kW (60.3 / 49.6 hp) with the FANUC 0i-TF Plus that is standard, or 55.5 / 37 kW (74.4 / 49.6 hp) with the SIEMENS 828D alternative. An 18 in chuck is listed.
Tooling is a manual 4-way square tool post with four faces for □32 mm shanks, so this is a machine for long, heavy parts with few operations rather than for multi-tool cycles. Rapids are 6 m/min (236.22 ipm) on both axes, with Z slowing to 5 m/min (196.85 ipm) on the 6000 bed, and cutting feed reaches 3,000 mm/min (118.11 ipm). The built-in tailstock has a Ø200 mm (Ø7.87 in) quill with an MT No.6 taper and 260 mm (10.24 in) of quill travel, on a 700 mm (27.56 in) wide bed.
Mass and footprint scale with the bed: 14,600 kg (32,187 lb) and 6,640 mm (261.42 in) long for the 3000 bed, 19,600 kg (43,210 lb) and 9,640 mm (379.53 in) for the 6000. The supply is 76 kVA (TR 80 kVA), or 84 kVA (TR 85 kVA) on the 6000 bed, at 220 V, 60 Hz with FANUC or 380 V, 60 Hz with SIEMENS.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Ø155 mm (Ø6.1 in) on an A2-15 nose gives the highest speed, 750 rpm. Ø255 mm (Ø10.04 in), also A2-15, runs to 650 rpm. Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) uses an A2-20 nose and runs to 400 rpm. Choose the smallest bore that passes the stock, because each step up costs speed.
02
The table rates the spindle at 45 / 37 kW (60.3 / 49.6 hp) with the FANUC 0i-TF Plus and 55.5 / 37 kW (74.4 / 49.6 hp) with the SIEMENS 828D. The continuous figure is the same; the short-time rating is higher on the SIEMENS version. The supply voltage differs too: 220 V, 60 Hz for FANUC, 380 V, 60 Hz for SIEMENS.
03
The MEGA+140 swings Ø1,400 mm (Ø55.12 in), has a 32 in chuck and offers centre distances up to 10,000 mm (393.7 in). Spindle bores, speeds and motor ratings are the same on the MEGA+140 and the MEGA+120. The MEGA+120 has an 18 in chuck and 625 mm (24.61 in) of X travel.
04
14,600 / 16,100 / 17,600 / 19,600 kg (32,187 / 35,494 / 38,801 / 43,210 lb) for the 3000 / 4000 / 5000 / 6000 beds. Length runs from 6,640 mm (261.42 in) to 9,640 mm (379.53 in), with a width of 3,050 mm (120.08 in) and a height of 2,490 mm (98.03 in).
