How much does the AWEA LP-4016YF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-4016YF 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
Does the 5-face package add weight? On the AWEA LP-4016YF the table says no: the machine is listed at 33,000 kg (72,751 lb), the same figure AWEA gives for the plain LP-4016. What changes is the geometry around the ram. Y travel is 1,900 mm (74.8 in), the spindle nose works between 400 and 1,160 mm (15.7 ~ 45.7 in) above the table, and the coolant tank grows to 680 liter.
X travel is 4,000 mm (157.5 in) and Z is 760 mm (29.9 in). The table, 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in), accepts 12,000 kg (26,455 lb). At this length the X rapid is 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm), while Y stays at 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm). Z also runs at 15,000 mm/min.
Long parts are where a head changer earns its place. A beam or a machine bed four metres long is awkward to turn over, and every re-clamping brings its own alignment error. With a horizontal head the end faces and the long sides are reached from one set-up, and the positioning statement of P ≤ 0.030 mm over full travel under VDI then applies to the whole part rather than to each clamping separately. Repeatability is Ps ≤ 0.025 mm.
A 32-tool magazine is standard. The 60 and 90 tool versions are worth deciding on early, since the vertical / horizontal ATC system serves both spindle orientations from the same magazine and a long part with features on five faces fills pockets quickly. Tools may be up to Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in), or Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) with empty neighbours, and up to 20 kg (44 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed at 33,000 kg (72,751 lb), the same weight as the LP-4016 without the 5-face preparation
- 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in) table for 12,000 kg (26,455 lb)
- Y rapid stays at 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) at this length
- Magazine of 32 tools with 60 and 90 as options, against the 40-tool option of the LP-4016
- 680 liter coolant tank, where the LP-4016 has 420 liter
Limitations
- X rapid of 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm), down from 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) on the LP-3016YF
- Positioning widens to P ≤ 0.030 mm over full travel under VDI
- Minimum spindle nose height of 400 mm (15.7 in) above the table
- Head changer and horizontal ATC are described as equipment the series can have, so their scope must be confirmed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Not according to AWEA's tables. Both are listed at 33,000 kg (72,751 lb). The LP-4016 has 1,600 mm (63.0 in) of Y travel, 240 ~ 1,000 mm (9.4 ~ 39.4 in) from spindle nose to table and a 120 liter hydraulic tank with a 7.5 HP pump. The LP-4016YF has 1,900 mm of Y, 400 ~ 1,160 mm at the nose and a 10 HP hydraulic pump on the same 120 liter tank.
02
The standard magazine holds 32 tools, with 60 and 90 listed as options. Maximum tool diameter is Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in) with all pockets full and Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) with adjacent pockets empty. Maximum length is 400 mm (15.7 in) and maximum weight 20 kg (44 lb). AWEA says the vertical / horizontal ATC system uses sensors and sequence scanning during the change.

04
The maker states that all milling heads are developed and assembled in house, and that the contact surfaces of heads and covers are hand scraped. The storage magazine has two cabinets, for the horizontal head and the spindle cap. Which head is supplied, and whether it indexes automatically, is not in the specification table, so it has to be settled in the quotation.
