Hanwha CNC Machine Tool
XD38II
by Hanwha
Versatile 5/6/7-axis Swiss-type CNC lathe for Ø38mm bar stock with a broad choice of guide-bush configurations, sub spindle motor types, and a customisable back-tool layout scaling from 4 to 8 positions.

Main Spindle Speed

Ideal For
- Job shops wanting maximum configuration flexibility from a single 38mm Swiss platform
- Operations with mixed work that sometimes needs strong sub spindle power and sometimes does not
- Shops upgrading from an older Swiss lathe that want a well-proven, widely supported 38mm machine
- Productions where back-tool scaling (4 to 8) lets one machine cover multiple part families
- Canadian manufacturers seeking AMT-supported Hanwha Swiss lathes with on-the-ground application expertise
XD38II Features
Standard features that set this machine apart in demanding manufacturing environments.
Precision & Performance
- Sub spindle motor choice (built-in 2.2/5.5 kW vs. Hanwha Fanuc-i 1.1/3.7 kW) lets buyers match machine specification to actual sub spindle demand
- Off-centre drill unit (2 positions, ER16) provides eccentric drilling via motor drive (NH/H/N configs) or gear drive (He config)
- 5/6/7-axis capability -- when combined with cross drilling, back tooling, and off-centre drilling, the XD38II handles compound operations in a single chuck
Ease of Operation
- Widest configuration range in the Hanwha 38mm family -- guide-bush, non-guide-bush, convertible, and Hanwha Fanuc-i variants address different production requirements
- Modular back tool system supports interchangeable driven tool modules for flexible tool configurations without full reconfiguration
- Common cross-drill ER16 modular tooling shared with XD38II-R and XD38III, protecting tooling investment across the platform family
Built-In Extras
- Back tool unit scalable from 4 to 8 positions with driven count adjustable up to 8, enabling the tooling layout to match the part's secondary operation complexity

XD38II Questions
Answers to common questions about the XD38II.
The XD38II is described as a 5/6/7-axis machine. The exact count depends on the configuration chosen: the NH convertible guide bush version with cross drilling, back tooling, and the off-centre drill unit reaches 7 axes.
The built-in motor (Fanuc 32i-B) delivers 2.2/5.5 kW and 20/49 Nm -- suited to heavier sub spindle cuts in tougher materials. The Hanwha Fanuc-i spindle motor option provides 1.1/3.7 kW and 7/28 Nm at a lower cost, and is a practical choice when sub spindle operations are lighter drilling or parting cycles. Both spin at 6,500 rpm.
The back tool unit is scalable. The standard NH configuration carries 6 tools (4 fixed + 2 driven), and the layout can be extended to 4, 5, 6, or 8 positions, with the driven count ranging up to 8. Note that the 5- and 6-tool configurations are not compatible with simultaneous off-centre drill use.
