TURNING CENTER
6”– 8" Horizontal Turning Center
The fast turret indexing time of 0.15sec/step and 36m/min feedrate minimize
the time between each cut process, and the high-power chuck clamp
guarantees precision turning every time—providing superb performance for any
mass production applications.

STANDARD IN 6”-8” HORIZONTAL

TURNING CENTERS
The pinnacle of Hwacheon technology, CUTEX-160 quickly became the industry
standard in small-size turning centers when it was introduced. With its compact
design, rigid construction, and a wide range of options such as bar feeder and parts
catcher, CUTEX-160 will be a perfect solution for all your production requirements.
The machine incorporates L-HTLD, the Hwacheon Lathe Tool Load Detection system,
which monitors the tool load in real time to protect your valuable assets and to
provide consistent, quality results.
 Horizontal Turning Centers 5

Extra Rigid LM Guide

CUTEX-160 incorporates highly rigid LM guides on all axes with fast
feedrate of 36m/min, to cut down the time between processes, and
to enhance machine precision.

High Speed, High Performance Spindle

Hwacheon's high-performance spindle delivers predictable, quality
results consistently at high speed machining.
Extra Rigid Single Frame Construction
The integrated 45-degrees torque rib frame bed is made of
Meehanite cast iron to limit heat distortion; and it prevents
thermal displacement during high-speed machining to
guarantee accurate, consistent results.
 Horizontal Turning Centers 6

Tough, Rapid Indexing Turret

The turret in CUTEX-160 offers an index time of 0.15sec/step
and a clamping power of 4,300kgf (9,480lbf).

Programmable Tailstock (Option)

The programmable tailstock in CUTEX-160 is automatically
positioned by the Z-axis slide, and provides firm hold for
extra-long workpieces.

USER FRIENDLY DESIGN,

A WIDE RANGE OF
OPTIONAL FEATURES
CUTEX-160 horizontal center is designed to be user friendly, so you can concentrate on
what you do best: creating quality product-—without losing your valuable time to the
worries of machine failure and safety. A wide variety of performance upgrade options are
available for faster, more precise machining.

Parts Catcher (Option)

The parts catcher dissipates the scrap materials left
over after machining—to make your work safer and
more time efficient.

Tool Presetter (Option)

The tool presetter employs a highly accurate sensor with
the repeatability of 5µm or less to precisely compute for
the coordinate settings in less than 15 seconds per tool.
Different tool shapes and their tolerance values are
entered automatically for the coordinate calculations.
Easy Maintenance
CUTEX-160 is designed with the user in
mind—all machine components are easily
accessible for service and maintenance.

L-HTLD: Hwacheon Lathe Tool Load Detect System (Option)

The Hwacheon Lathe Tool Load Detect System constantly detects and diagnoses the tool
load under a process to prevent tool wear and damage, and to keep your machine and
tools in optimal shape.
