2023 Hwacheon D2-5AX 5-Axis CNC Machining Center

The Hwacheon D2-5AX is a simultaneous 5-axis trunnion-style vertical machining center with a reputation for rigid construction and precision that has made it a trusted choice in aerospace, medical, and complex part manufacturing environments. The machine features a 23.62" (600 mm) trunnion table with full A/C-axis simultaneous motion, X/Y/Z travels of 23.62" × 19.69" × 19.69" (600 × 500 × 500 mm), and a 12,000 RPM direct-drive spindle producing 50 HP with CAT-40 tooling interface. The 60-tool arm-type automatic tool changer supports high-mix production without operator intervention, while coolant-through-spindle prep is plumbed and ready for future installation. Control is handled by the Fanuc 0i-MG Plus configured for 4+1 axis operation, and the package includes the HRCC-II function for high-accuracy contouring, a rotary joint set with 4-port adapter, and a chip conveyor for clean continuous operation. This unit is new in the crate and has never been run, per the seller, and includes a one-year parts warranty along with installation and training support.

The D2-5AX represents a significant step forward from its predecessor, the Hwacheon D2-4AX, which was limited to 4-axis indexing and lacked simultaneous 5-axis capability. Where the D2-4AX required additional fixturing setups for complex geometry, the D2-5AX eliminates those interruptions with true simultaneous A/C-axis motion through the trunnion table — reducing part handling, improving surface finish, and opening the door to complex contoured work in a single setup. The spindle on the D2-5AX also steps up to 12,000 RPM compared to the lower top-end of earlier configurations, and the Fanuc 0i-MG Plus control brings improved contouring performance and faster block processing over the Fanuc 0i-MF used on prior models. For shops ready to take on 5-axis work without building from the ground up on an aging platform, the D2-5AX delivers a meaningful production upgrade at a used machine price point — even in this case, never touched.
