How much does the OKK HM1000S cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from OKK Corporation. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
A ⌀1000 mm pallet carrying up to 2500 kg puts the OKK HM1000S in the large class of horizontal machining centers. X travel is 1400 mm, Y is 1100 mm and Z is 1000 mm, and all three axes rapid at 48 m/min.
This is a machine sized around the workpiece more than around cycle time. With 1400 mm across and 1100 mm of vertical travel, gearbox cases and machine frames can be faced and bored on several sides from one clamping, and the 2500 kg rating leaves margin for a substantial fixture under a heavy casting. The equal 48 m/min rapid on X, Y and Z is moderate, and on parts of this size the time spent cutting usually outweighs the time spent traversing.
The spindle is a No. 50 taper. OKK lists 12000 min-1 as the standard maximum speed and 8000 min-1 as an option. The table does not say what the lower-speed option brings in exchange, and it gives no power or torque figure for either spindle, so ask for both spindle curves before choosing. The smaller HM6000S has 800 mm of X travel, a ⌀630 mm pallet and a 700 kg load with rapids of 75 m/min in X and Z, which makes it the quicker machine for parts that fit it.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- ⌀1000 mm pallet with a 2500 kg maximum table load for large castings and weldments
- Travels of 1400 mm in X, 1100 mm in Y and 1000 mm in Z
- No. 50 taper spindle at 12000 min-1 as standard, with an 8000 min-1 spindle listed as an option
- The same 48 m/min rapid on X, Y and Z
Limitations
- Rapids of 48 m/min are well below the 75 m/min the HM6000S lists in X and Z
- Neither spindle has a power or torque figure in OKK's table, so the 12000 and 8000 min-1 versions cannot be compared on cutting capacity
- Tool magazine capacity and tool size limits are not listed for this model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The pallet is listed as ⌀1000 mm and the maximum table load is 2500 kg, fixture included. Axis travels are 1400 mm in X, 1100 mm in Y and 1000 mm in Z. OKK's table for this model does not give a maximum workpiece swing or height, so check the clearance for tall parts.
02
The standard spindle runs to 12000 min-1 and an 8000 min-1 spindle is listed as an option, both with a No. 50 taper. The table gives no power or torque for either, so it does not show what the 8000 min-1 option offers in exchange for the lower top speed. Ask for the torque curve of both before choosing.
03
Size and pace. The HM1000S has 1400 mm of X travel, a ⌀1000 mm pallet and a 2500 kg table load. The HM6000S has 800 mm of X travel, a ⌀630 mm pallet and a 700 kg load, with rapids of 75 m/min in X and Z and 60 m/min in Y against 48 m/min on every axis of the HM1000S. Both have a No. 50 taper spindle running to 12000 min-1.
