AWEA AT-510

Q: How much does the AWEA AT-510 cost?

The price estimate for the AWEA AT-510 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/awea-at-510#price; the request is passed to AWEA or an authorised dealer.

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the AWEA AT-510 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The AWEA AT-510 is a BT 30 drilling and tapping center with travels of 510 mm (20.1 in) in X, 400 mm (15.7 in) in Y and 330 mm (13.0 in) in Z. It is the only 30-taper machine in AWEA's listing and by far the smallest: 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), on a floor area of 1,520 x 2,180 mm according to the dimension row, with a 15 kVA supply.

Everything about it is tuned for short cycles on small parts. The direct drive spindle runs at 12,000 rpm on a 3.7 / 5.5 kW (5.0 / 7.4 hp) motor, and AWEA offers 15,000 and 20,000 rpm versions. All three axes ride on roller type linear guide ways. AWEA states an X and Y feed rate of up to 50 m/min, with 60 m/min available as an option; the specification table prints the rapid figures without a unit, so the statement in the maker's text is the one to rely on. Cutting feed is 20 m/min (787 ipm).

The tool changer holds 14 tools and uses a synchronous unclamping design that picks the shortest path between pockets. Tool limits are small, as expected at this taper: 3 kg (7 lb), 200 mm (7.9 in) long, Ø90 mm with neighbours in place. The table is 610 x 400 mm (24.0 x 15.7 in) and carries 250 kg (551 lb).

Three controls are listed: FANUC Oi -MD, MITSUBISHI M-70 and SIEMENS 828D. Chips are washed out by a high pressure water jet system into a rear chip collector, and both the collector and the coolant tank detach for cleaning. The tank holds 160 liter.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels and table size of the AWEA AT-510?

Travels are 510 mm (20.1 in) in X, 400 mm (15.7 in) in Y and 330 mm (13.0 in) in Z. The table is 610 x 400 mm (24.0 x 15.7 in) with a load capacity of 250 kg (551 lb). The machine measures 1,520 x 2,180 x 2,770 mm (59.8 x 85.8 x 109.1 in) and weighs 2,000 kg (4,409 lb).

02 What spindle speeds are available on the AT-510?

The table lists 12,000 rpm with a BT 30 taper and a 3.7 / 5.5 kW (5.0 / 7.4 hp) motor. AWEA states that the direct drive spindle is offered at 12,000 / 15,000 / 20,000 rpm. The maker says the direct drive layout blocks motor heat to reduce thermal deformation.

03 How many tools does the AT-510 hold?

14. The synchronous unclamping type tool changer calculates the shortest tool change path. Tools can be up to 200 mm (7.9 in) long from the gauge line and 3 kg (7 lb); maximum diameter is Ø90 mm, or Ø150 mm with adjacent pockets empty.

04 Which CNC controls can the AT-510 be ordered with?

AWEA lists FANUC Oi -MD, MITSUBISHI M-70 and SIEMENS 828D. Whichever is chosen, the three axes are driven by absolute servo motors coupled directly to the screws, according to the maker's description.

05 How does the AT-510 handle chips?

A high pressure water jet chip removal system clears the working zone, and a large chip trough carries chips to a collector at the back of the machine. The chip collector and the 160 liter coolant tank are detachable for maintenance. A chips flush coolant system is an option.
