How much does the AWEA LP-4016YZF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-4016YZF 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
Long and tall but not wide: the AWEA LP-4016YZF pairs 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X travel with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z between columns only 1,700 mm (66.9 in) apart. Y travel is 1,900 mm (74.8 in). The table is 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in) and holds 12,000 kg (26,455 lb).
That shape fits a particular kind of part. Think of press frames, injection machine platens stood on edge, or long welded boxes that are higher than they are wide. With the ram up, the spindle nose is 1,200 mm (47.2 in) above the table, and it descends to 200 mm (7.9 in). A horizontal head can then work down the long sides and across the ends while the 4,000 rpm gear spindle, standard on this model, takes the top face.
The head exchange is automated on machines so equipped. AWEA's description has the storage magazine sliding on linear guide ways to shorten the change, with separate cabinets for the horizontal head and the spindle cap, and doors that stay shut except during the exchange.
Axis speeds follow the 4,000 mm size class: 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) on X and Z, 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) on Y. Positioning under VDI is P ≤ 0.030 mm over full travel.
If the part is wide too, look at the LP-4021YZF, which has 2,300 mm (90.6 in) between the columns, 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y and a 4,020 x 2,010 mm (158.3 x 79.1 in) table, carries the same 12,000 kg and weighs 38,000 kg (83,774 lb). The LP-4016YZF is listed at 33,000 kg (72,751 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X combined with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z
- Spindle nose travels from 200 mm to 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in) above the table
- 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) on a 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in) table
- Y rapid of 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm); the wider LP-4021YZF lists 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm)
- Listed at 33,000 kg (72,751 lb), lighter than the 38,000 kg (83,774 lb) LP-4021YZF for the same table load
Limitations
- Columns 1,700 mm (66.9 in) apart: a tall part must also be narrow
- X rapid of 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) rather than the 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) of the LP-3016YZF
- Standard spindle speed is 4,000 rpm; 6,000 rpm and above are options
- VDI positioning of P ≤ 0.030 mm over full travel and Ps ≤ 0.025 mm repeatability

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X travel, Z travel, table load and X rapid match. The LP-4016YZF has a 1,500 mm wide table, 1,700 mm between the columns, 1,900 mm of Y and a 20,000 mm/min Y rapid, and accepts tools 400 mm (15.7 in) long. The LP-4021YZF has a 4,020 x 2,010 mm table, 2,300 mm (90.6 in) between the columns, 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y, a 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) Y rapid and a 350 mm (13.8 in) tool length limit.
02
The spindle nose is 1,200 mm (47.2 in) above the table at the top of the 1,000 mm (39.4 in) stroke. Subtract the tool, which may be up to 400 mm (15.7 in) long, and any fixture plate under the part. AWEA's table gives no figure for the height taken by a milling head, so ask for it if side machining near the top of a tall part is planned.
03
The specification tables give 33,000 kg (72,751 lb) for both, despite the longer Z stroke. The LP-4016YF has 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z, 400 ~ 1,160 mm (15.7 ~ 45.7 in) from nose to table and a 6,000 rpm base spindle. The LP-4016YZF has 1,000 mm of Z, 200 ~ 1,200 mm and a 4,000 rpm standard spindle. Confirm the shipping weight for the configuration you order.
04
According to AWEA, the automatic head storage magazine has two cabinets, one for the horizontal head and one for the spindle cap. It slides on linear guide ways for a quick change. Each cabinet has an independent swing door that opens only during the exchange, to keep contamination out of the head storage.
