Lead Machine Tools recently installed a Hwacheon Cutex 160BMC CNC Horizontal Turning Center at a manufacturer in the Western Cape. This pocket rocket of a machine has the following features...

6"- 8" CHUCK HORIZONTAL TURNING CENTER

High Performance For Production Application

The fast turret indexing time of 0.15 s/step and 36 m/min feed rate minimize the down time between each cut, the high-power chuck clamp guarantees precision turning every time, providing superb performance for any production application.
 

Specifications

Lead installed Hwacheon's HitTech 450 Horizontal Turning Center last month in KZN.

Large task compact machine footprint

Hi-TECH 450 is the pinnacle of Hwacheon technology. Its small footprint design will provide to you space efficiency, while offering the largest turning diameter as well as turning length among today's mid-size lathes. A variety of options, such as Y-axis, provide higher flexibility.

During October 2022 WD Hearn completed the installation of a Microdynamics 50V Vertical Machining Center at GUD Filters in Kwazulu Natal.

Lead Machine Tools recently installed one of Hwacheon's top class Cutex 160A Horizontal Turning Centers at SuperXcel in Cape Town.

Thanks to the turret’s short indexing time of just 0.15 seconds and the high rapid traverse speed of 36 m/min, non-productive time is significantly reduced. The power chuck guarantees excellent performance in precision turning and high productivity for large batch sizes.

Lead Machine Tools recently installed a Sino SP2440 Bridge Type Machining Center in Gauteng.
