2022 HWACHEON VESTA1000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2022 Hwacheon VESTA-1000 is a 3-axis vertical machining center designed for versatile mid-size machining in job shop and production environments. The machine provides 39.4-inch X-axis travel, 21.7-inch Y-axis travel, and 19.7-inch Z-axis travel across a 43.3-inch by 19.7-inch worktable with a maximum table load of 1,543 pounds. The BT 40 spindle is available in 10,000 or 12,000 RPM configurations with approximately 20.1 horsepower continuous output, enabling efficient cutting across aluminum, steel, and general engineering materials at a range of cutting speeds. A 30-tool automatic tool changer enables complex multi-operation machining without manual tool changes. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 0i-MF Plus CNC control, providing reliable servo performance, full G-code compatibility, and consistent positioning accuracy across production runs. The compact footprint and moderate weight of approximately 14,330 pounds make the VESTA-1000 a practical and productive choice for shops requiring a capable mid-size VMC in a space-efficient layout. The rigid construction provides good thermal stability and vibration damping suited to general-purpose precision work. The VESTA-1000 is well suited to job shops, precision subcontractors, and production facilities requiring a reliable mid-size vertical machining center with BT 40 tooling compatibility and proven Fanuc CNC performance for a wide range of part sizes and material types.
