Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Hyundai WIA. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Hyundai WIA KF4600 is a 40-taper vertical machining center with listed travels of 600 mm (23.6 in) in X, 460 mm (18.1 in) in Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) in Z and a 12,000 RPM inline direct-drive spindle. It is not in Hyundai WIA's current lineup, and the listed figures are unconfirmed, so use them as a guide when assessing a particular machine.

The Z travel is the notable figure: 510 mm (20.1 in) is longer than the 460 mm (18.1 in) of Y, which gives room for a tall vise, a rotary fixture or long drills on a machine with only 600 mm of X. Linear roller guides and a 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) rapid traverse fit the same picture of a fast machine for light to medium cuts, and the 12,000 RPM BT40 spindle suits aluminium and general steel work with small and mid-size cutters.

The magazine is an arm-type ATC with 24 tools. Listed positioning accuracy is ±0.005 mm (±0.0002 in) with ±0.003 mm (±0.00012 in) repeatability, and machine weight is 7,500 kg (16,535 lb). The table has no spindle power or torque, no table size and no table load, which are the figures a used-machine buyer most needs; read them from the machine's plates and manual. Among nearby models, the KF5700B II Series is listed with 1100 mm (43.3 in) of X and 30 tools.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

12,000 RPM inline direct-drive spindle on a BT40 taper
510 mm (20.1 in) of Z travel, more than the 460 mm (18.1 in) of Y
Linear roller guides with a listed rapid traverse of 48 m/min (1,890 ipm)
Listed positioning accuracy of ±0.005 mm (±0.0002 in) and repeatability of ±0.003 mm (±0.00012 in)
Arm-type ATC with 24 tools

Limitations

X travel is 600 mm (23.6 in), which rules out long parts and wide multi-vise setups
Spindle power, torque, table size and table load are not listed
24 tools with no larger magazine listed; the KF5700B II Series lists 30 tools with 40 optional
Not in Hyundai WIA's current lineup, and the listed figures are unconfirmed

Best For

Small prismatic parts within 600 x 460 x 510 mm (23.6 x 18.1 x 20.1 in) Aluminium and general steel work with small and mid-size cutters at up to 12,000 RPM Tall setups that use the 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z Jobs that run with 24 tools or fewer

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels of the Hyundai WIA KF4600?

The listed figures are 600 mm (23.6 in) in X, 460 mm (18.1 in) in Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) in Z. No table size or table load is listed, so measure the table and check the load rating on the machine itself.

02 What spindle does the KF4600 have?

A BT40 inline direct-drive spindle listed at 12,000 RPM. The table does not give power or torque. For a used machine, the spindle motor plate and a test cut tell you more than the listed speed alone.

03 Is the KF4600 a current Hyundai WIA model?

No. It is not in Hyundai WIA's current lineup, which points to an older model. The listed figures are unconfirmed, so treat them as a description to verify. Nearby KF models include the KF5700B II Series, listed with 1100 mm (43.3 in) of X travel.

04 How accurate is the KF4600?

The listed positioning accuracy is ±0.005 mm (±0.0002 in) and repeatability is ±0.003 mm (±0.00012 in). The table does not say which standard those values were measured to, and on a used machine the real figures depend on wear, so ask for a recent ballbar or laser report.
