Kingston Engineering strengthens legacy of innovation with investment in high-performance Hwacheon machines

At the core of Kingston Engineering’s success as a leading precision engineering company with an impressive heritage spanning over 106 years, has been its focus on innovation.

This commitment to progressing and moving the company forward has inspired Kingston Engineering to evolve continually across the decades and to remain at the forefront of the precision industry.

The most recent investment by Kingston Engineering in cutting-edge machines ensures they continue to provide advanced precision manufacturing, empowering innovations in so many industries today.

As pioneers in precision manufacturing, Kingston Engineering has this year invested in two high-performance machines from the renowned manufacturer Hwacheon.

In the first quarter of 2025, Kingston Engineering introduced a new Hwacheon Hi-Tech 200B onto the machine shop floor. The Hwacheon Hi-Tech 200B has powerful drives with the capabilities of handling the most demanding machining requirements. The horizontal turning centre is a proven, multifunctional, and highly customisable machine, equipped with advanced features, capable of handling complex machining tasks. The new Hwacheon Hi-Tech 200B ensures the superior production and performance of ultra-precision complex components with intricate features.

In September 2025, Kingston Engineering completed the installation of a new Hwacheon Vesta-1300B+, a vertical machining centre. This machine is another welcome addition to the already extensive machine base at the Kingston Engineering site. The Hwacheon Vesta-1300B+ machine is particularly suitable for ductile materials such as copper, aluminium, and steel. This machine is renowned for enabling exceptionally high cutting rates, further expanding Kingston Engineering’s already impressive capabilities.

Kingston Engineering’s recent investment in both these high-performance machines is a testament to the company’s commitment to advanced technologies and delivering the highest quality precision solutions to customers.

It’s an exciting time for Kingston Engineering as they continue to invest in the future and lead the way in shaping precision engineering of the future.
