How much does the Hyundai WIA HD3100 Series cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc lathes / turning center in this class — not a quote from Hyundai WIA. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Hyundai WIA HD3100 Series is the 12 in (305 mm) chuck size of the HD turning centres: 500 mm (19.7 in) of maximum turning diameter, 780 mm (30.7 in) of maximum turning length, and a belt-driven spindle listed at 1,123 / 657 N·m (828.3 / 484.6 ft-lbf) with a 2,800 rpm ceiling. It is specified for torque at low speed, not for rpm.
The clearest way to read it is against the HD2600 Series. Both list 26 / 18.5 kW (34.9 / 24.8 hp) of spindle power and 265 mm (10.4 in) of X travel. The larger machine puts that power through a slower spindle, 2,800 rpm against 3,500 rpm on the HD2600 Series, and its peak torque is about 53% higher than the 734 N·m (541.4 ft-lbf) of the HD2600 Series. Z travel grows as well, to 830 mm (32.7 in) from the 680 mm (26.8 in) of the HD2600 Series.
Turret capacity depends on the variant. Hyundai WIA lists 10 stations as standard and 12 on M-variants, and the tool capacity row reads 10 tools, which is the standard turret. No live-tool speed is stated in the series table, so request it when an M-variant is on the quotation. Chuck size varies inside the family too: the HD3100A/MA is listed with a 10 in chuck and 734 / 522 Nm.
Rapids are 24 m/min (945 ipm) in X and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) in Z. The table gives no bar capacity, machine weight or power supply figure, so floor loading and electrical service have to come from the quotation. With 2,800 rpm as the top speed, small-diameter finishing in aluminium or brass will run below its ideal surface speed. This is a lathe for larger steel and cast iron parts.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,123 / 657 N·m (828.3 / 484.6 ft-lbf) of spindle torque, about 53% above the peak figure of the HD2600 Series at the same 26 / 18.5 kW (34.9 / 24.8 hp)
- 12 in (305 mm) chuck with a 500 mm (19.7 in) maximum turning diameter
- 780 mm (30.7 in) of turning length on 830 mm (32.7 in) of Z travel
- Turret listed with 10 stations as standard and 12 on M-variants
- Rapids of 24 m/min (945 ipm) in X and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) in Z, no slower than the smaller HD2600 Series
Limitations
- Top speed is 2,800 rpm, the lowest of the three series; the HD2600 Series reaches 3,500 rpm and the HD2200 Series 4,500 rpm
- X travel is 265 mm (10.4 in), the same as the HD2600 Series, so the larger chuck does not come with a longer cross stroke
- The standard turret has 10 stations; 12 stations are listed only for M-variants
- No live-tool speed, bar capacity or machine weight appears in the series table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table lists 1,123 / 657 N·m (828.3 / 484.6 ft-lbf) with 26 / 18.5 kW (34.9 / 24.8 hp) and a top speed of 2,800 rpm. The drive is by belt. The pairs are not labelled in the table; the higher figure of each is normally a short-time rating, so size continuous roughing on 657 N·m (484.6 ft-lbf) and 18.5 kW (24.8 hp).
02
No. X travel is the same 265 mm (10.4 in) and spindle power the same 26 / 18.5 kW (34.9 / 24.8 hp), but the chuck grows from 10 in (254 mm) on the HD2600 Series to 12 in (305 mm) and turning diameter from 460 mm (18.1 in) on the HD2600 Series to 500 mm (19.7 in). Z travel is 830 mm (32.7 in) against the 680 mm (26.8 in) of the HD2600 Series. The spindle is slower and stronger too: 2,800 rpm against 3,500 rpm on the HD2600 Series.
03
Hyundai WIA lists 10 stations as standard and 12 on M-variants. The tool capacity row gives 10 tools, which matches the standard turret. The series table carries no live-tool speed or power, so those figures need to be requested for an M-variant.
04
The series table lists a 12 in (305 mm) chuck. Hyundai WIA's tables for related models differ: the HD3100A/MA is listed with a 10 in chuck and 734 / 522 Nm of torque, and the HD3100LY/LYA with a 12 in chuck on the HD3100LY and a 10 in chuck on the HD3100LYA. Confirm the chuck and the torque figure together, because the two go hand in hand in this family.
05
Three things the table leaves open. First, the variant: turret stations and chuck size change with it. Second, bar capacity, weight and electrical supply, none of which the series table gives. Third, whether 2,800 rpm is enough for your smallest diameters, since the HD2600 Series offers 3,500 rpm on the same 26 / 18.5 kW (34.9 / 24.8 hp).
