Overview
The Hyundai WIA KF5600L II is the long-bed variant of the second-generation KF5600, extending the X-axis travel to approximately 1,300 mm (51.2 in) while maintaining the 560 mm Y-travel and 520 mm Z-travel of the standard KF5600 II. The L designation indicates the stretched X-axis for shops that need additional longitudinal reach without stepping up to the wider and heavier KF6700 II platform.
The KF5600L II fills a specific niche: shops needing more X-travel than the standard KF5600 II (1,100 mm) but without requiring the 670 mm Y-travel of the KF6700 II. This makes it ideal for long, narrow parts like extrusions, rail components, and multi-part fixture plates that are long in X but do not demand extended Y-reach. The narrower Y-travel also keeps the machine footprint more compact than the KF6700 II.
The table extends to approximately 1,500 x 560 mm (59.1 x 22.0 in) with a load capacity of 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). The HSK-A63 spindle delivers 18.5/15 kW (25/20 hp) at 12,000 RPM standard (15,000/20,000 RPM high-speed options available) with direct-drive technology. Rapid traverse rates of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) in X/Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) in Z maintain competitive non-cutting times across the extended X-travel.
The 30-tool arm-type ATC (40-tool optional), FANUC i-Series control, and linear roller guideways are standard. Second-generation improvements include thermal compensation, stiffer castings, and enhanced chip management. At $110,000-$160,000 new, the KF5600L II slots between the standard KF5600 II and the larger KF6700 II in both price and capability.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,300 mm X-travel provides extended longitudinal reach without the wider footprint and higher cost of the KF6700 II
- 1,500 x 560 mm table accommodates long parts and multi-part fixture plates that exceed standard KF5600 II capacity
- HSK-A63 spindle with multiple speed options (12K/15K/20K RPM) provides material-optimised configuration flexibility
- Second-generation improvements in thermal compensation and structural rigidity enhance production accuracy
- More compact footprint and lower cost than the KF6700 II for shops that need X-travel but not extended Y-travel
- Direct-drive spindle and linear roller guideways deliver clean surface finishes with low maintenance
Limitations
- 560 mm Y-travel may limit wider workpieces or dual-vise setups that the 670 mm KF6700 II accommodates
- 11,000 kg weight still requires solid foundation and overhead crane capability for installation
- HSK-A63 tooling costs more than BT40, adding to the capital investment
- 520 mm Z-travel limits workpiece height regardless of the extended X-axis

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Both have 1,300 mm X-travel, but the KF6700 II adds 110 mm of Y-travel (670 vs 560 mm) and a wider table. The KF5600L II is the better choice when Y-travel is sufficient at 560 mm and you want a smaller footprint and lower cost. The KF6700 II is needed when workpiece width or dual-vise setups demand the extra Y-reach.
02
New KF5600L II machines typically sell in the $110,000-$160,000 range. The L (long-bed) option adds approximately $10,000-$15,000 over the standard KF5600 II. Adding high-speed spindle, expanded ATC, and through-spindle coolant can push the upper range. This positions the KF5600L II between the standard KF5600 II and KF6700 II in price.
03
Yes. Like the standard KF5600 II, the long-bed variant is available in both Standard Type (12,000 RPM) and High Speed Type (15,000/20,000 RPM) configurations. The high-speed option is particularly useful for long aluminium parts where the extended X-travel and elevated spindle speed combine for efficient production.
04
With 1,300 mm of X-travel and a 1,500 mm long table, parts up to approximately 1,400-1,450 mm in length can be fixtured. Actual maximum machined length depends on tool clearances and workholding setup. For parts longer than 1,300 mm machined length, the KF7600L with 1,500 mm X-travel should be considered.
