Hwacheon SIRIUS-2500
High rigidity vertical machining center for die and mold
SIRIUS-1250 to 2500
Built to order. Ask for lead time.
Overview
2,300 mm Y-axis, X travel up to 4,000 mm, tables up to 15,000 kgf
The SIRIUS-2500 is a bridge-type, double-column vertical machining center with a 2,300 mm Y-axis for extra-large mold work. X travel is 3,100 mm, or 4,000 mm on the SIRIUS-2500L long bed, with 900 mm of Z travel. The table carries 10,000 kgf, or 15,000 kgf on the long bed. The 30 / 25 kW BBT-50 built-in spindle runs 8,000 rpm as standard or 12,000 rpm as an option, with a 40-tool magazine.

Features
- 01Symmetrical portal structureThe bridge-type portal spreads vibration, upper weight and heat evenly through the frame. The distance from the Y-axis to the tool contact point is kept short for rigidity and precision.
- 02Short or long bedThe standard bed gives 3,100 mm of X travel and a 10,000 kgf table. The SIRIUS-2500L long bed extends X to 4,000 mm and table capacity to 15,000 kgf.
- 03Built-in oil-jet spindleThe BBT-50 built-in motor spindle runs 8,000 rpm as standard or 12,000 rpm as an option at 30 / 25 kW, with oil-jet bearing lubrication and jacket cooling.
- 04High-column optionA 300 mm gap option raises the column, giving a table-to-spindle range of 550 to 1,450 mm instead of 250 to 1,150 mm.
- 05Linear scales standardLinear scales on X, Y and Z are standard equipment, along with a hinge-type lift-up chip conveyor.
- 06Hwacheon machining software standardHTDC thermal displacement control, HECC contour control, HTLD tool load detection and OPTIMA feed optimization are standard. HTLD measures load every 8 msec to catch worn or broken tools.
