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

Overview

The Hyundai WIA KH1000 is a large gear-driven horizontal machining center: a 1,000 × 1,000 mm pallet rated for 3,000 kg (6,614 lb), a BBT50 spindle, and an X travel of 2,100 mm (82.7 in) that is more than twice the pallet width. Y is 1,350 mm (53.1 in) and Z is 1,400 mm (55.1 in).

That long X axis is what sets it apart from the HS10000, which carries the same pallet size and 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) load but lists 1,700 mm (66.9 in) of X. The extra reach lets a wide weldment or a long housing be machined end to end from one pallet position, provided the part clears the machine's swing limit, which the table does not state.

The spindle runs to 8,000 rpm through a gearbox, with 26 / 22 kW (34.9 / 29.5 hp) and 807 / 686 N·m (595.2 / 506 ft-lbf). For a machine of this size the power is moderate. The torque does the work: it supports large face mills and boring tools at low speed in steel and iron, while 8,000 rpm leaves room for finishing with smaller cutters. If the job is mostly heavy stock removal, compare the KH6300/8000, listed at 2,193 / 1,074 Nm with 45 / 22 kW.

Rapids are 20 / 20 / 20 m/min (787 / 787 / 787 ipm). Across 2,100 mm of X that adds up on parts with features at both ends, so cycle estimates should include positioning time. The 2-pallet shuttle APC and the 60-tool magazine are listed without options; the table-load row reads 2 - 3,000, one figure per pallet.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

2,100 mm (82.7 in) of X travel over a 1,000 × 1,000 mm pallet, with 1,350 mm (53.1 in) of Y and 1,400 mm (55.1 in) of Z
3,000 kg (6,614 lb) maximum workpiece weight on each of two pallets
Gearbox spindle with 807 / 686 N·m (595.2 / 506 ft-lbf) and a top speed of 8,000 rpm
BBT50 spindle taper and a 60-tool magazine
2-pallet shuttle APC, so long setups on heavy parts happen away from the spindle

Limitations

Rapids of 20 / 20 / 20 m/min (787 / 787 / 787 ipm) are slow across a 2,100 mm axis; the HS10000 lists 50 / 50 / 50 m/min
26 / 22 kW (34.9 / 29.5 hp) is modest for this envelope, below the 45 / 25 kW (60.3 / 33.5 hp) of the HS10000
60 tools with no larger magazine listed, where the HS10000 offers 90, 120 or 150 as options
The table gives no maximum workpiece diameter or height, so swing clearance for a part that uses the full X travel must be confirmed

Best For

Long housings, frames and weldments that need up to 2,100 mm (82.7 in) of X Heavy parts up to 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) per pallet Low-speed roughing and boring in steel and cast iron on BBT50 tooling Two-pallet production of large parts where setup time is long

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels of the Hyundai WIA KH1000?

2,100 mm (82.7 in) in X, 1,350 mm (53.1 in) in Y and 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in Z. The pallet is listed as 1,000×1,000, so the X travel is more than double the pallet width.

02 How much weight can a KH1000 pallet carry?

The maximum workpiece weight is 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). The table-load row reads 2 - 3,000, which is that figure for each of the two pallets on the shuttle APC. WIA's table does not list a higher-load option for this model.

03 What spindle does the KH1000 have?

A gearbox-driven BBT50 spindle with a maximum of 8,000 rpm, 26 / 22 kW (34.9 / 29.5 hp) and 807 / 686 N·m (595.2 / 506 ft-lbf). The table shows two values in the power and torque rows without labelling them, and lists no alternative spindle.

04 How does the KH1000 compare with the HS10000?

Both take a 1,000 mm square pallet and 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). The KH1000 has the longer X, 2,100 mm (82.7 in) against the HS10000's 1,700 mm (66.9 in), and more torque, 807 / 686 N·m against 623 / 305 N·m. The HS10000 is faster, with 50 / 50 / 50 m/min rapids and 10,000 rpm as its first listed speed, and has more Z at 1,550 mm (61 in).

05 How does the KH1000 differ from the KH50G?

Size and speed. The KH50G has a 500×500 pallet, travels of 760 mm (29.9 in), 705 mm (27.8 in) and 650 mm (25.6 in), 40 tools and a 4,500 rpm spindle. The KH1000 doubles the pallet edge, runs to 8,000 rpm and holds 60 tools. Both rapid at 20 / 20 / 20 m/min.
