Hankook America offers the complete range of machine tools manufactured by Hankook Machine Tools Co., Ltd. of Changwon-city, S. Korea. The CNC horizontal and vertical lathes are designed for the demanding cutting requirements of the oilfield, steel mill, power generation, and defense support industries. The rigid designs originated from a manufacturing collaboration with Dainichi Kinzoku Kogyo Co. Ltd. of Japan.
Workpiece capacities upward of 70 metric tons and standard lengths of up to 20 meters (65 feet) between centers are possible with these rigid and quality-built machine tools.
Hankook America Corp. was formed for importing the complete line of machine tools manufactured by Hankook Machine Tools Co., Ltd. for North and South America. Hankook Machine Tools Co., Ltd., a South Korean Corporation, was formed as a joint collaboration with Dainichi Kinzoku Kogyo Co. Ltd. of Japan and Hankook is now separately owned and managed. Based in West Chicago, IL (a Chicago suburb), we handle the sales, service, and parts for all Hankook Machine Tools.
Specializing in the large end of the machine tool spectrum enables us to focus on customers requiring large turning and machining support. As often is the case, these projects are demanding for you, our customers, and time can be critical in the planning and purchasing of what may be the most significant purchase for you company in a long time, or even ever!
Whether you are deciding to add a larger capacity machine or an additional machine, we can assist with your project by providing the correct information you will need for a successful outcome. From 12 inch thick chuck lathes up to machines with 70 metric ton (154,000 pound) part capacity; we can quote you the correct machine for the job.
Hankook America supplies VTL’s from 21” chucks to 30 foot tables with milling and C-axis or with only turning. Parts up to 660,000 LBS can be machined accurately up to 13 feet high.
Hankook VTB/VTC Series offers tables from 40 inch up to 98”. These wrap-around column machines have full cast bases unlike the fabricated bases of our competitors which barely support the table of the machine. The rigidity of the Hankook VTL’s is able to handle the roughest cutting requirements.
The VTB/VTC Double Column machines start at 98 inch tables and go up to 30 feet diameter and can handle all the secondary machining usually requiring moving a part to another large machine. They are available with or without milling, C-axis, Angle Attachments, Y-axis, and optional extra height cross-rails for very high parts.
