Mega III
Built to order. Ask for lead time.
Overview
Ø1,600 mm turning diameter, 6,000 to 12,000 mm between centers
The MEGAIII-160 is the smallest of Hwacheon's Mega III heavy-duty flat-bed lathes, built for large shafts, pipe and turbine parts in shipbuilding, wind power, aerospace and general industry. Its 1,200 mm wide 3-way bed carries the saddle and a geared-motor tailstock on separate box ways. It turns Ø1,600 mm with 650 mm of X travel and 6,000 to 12,000 mm between centers, and carries 15 tons. The spindle drives a 40 in chuck at 1 to 325 rpm through three automatic ranges, with 77 / 51 kW and 5,488 kgf·m of torque, on a Siemens 828D.

Features
- 013-way bed with separate waysThe 1,200 mm wide 3-way bed carries the saddle and tailstock on separate ways. It comes apart into units for easier connection, and its vertical chip drop eases chip removal and fitting a chip conveyor.
- 02Spindle driveAn A2-15 spindle delivers 5,488 kgf·m at 77 / 51 kW and runs 1 to 325 rpm in three automatic ranges, carried by high-precision cylindrical roller bearings in a rib-frame headstock with forced, cooled lubrication.
- 03Geared-motor tailstockThe built-in tailstock travels by rack and pinion on a geared motor, with 3-point support and double safety equipment. It has a Ø315 mm quill (Ø450 mm optional), a Ø90 x 60° dead center and 250 mm of quill travel.
- 04Tailstock load meteringA tailstock load meter is standard. The optional extra operating panel with a load cell measures the work's axial thrust to set clamping force and protect the tailstock drive.
- 05Feed drivesX runs on a direct ball screw. Z uses a ball screw below 8,000 mm and a ball screw or rack and pinion above 8,000 mm.
- 06Control optionsA Siemens 828D with a 10.4 in display is standard. Sinumerik One, FANUC 0i-TF Plus and FANUC 32i-B are options, along with X / Z linear scales.
