How much does the AWEA LP-4021YF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-4021YF 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
Three AWEA 5-face bridge machines share a 4,000 mm (157.5 in) X travel and a 760 mm (29.9 in) Z, and the LP-4021YF is the middle one. It has 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y and a 4,020 x 2,010 mm (158.3 x 79.1 in) table rated for 12,000 kg (26,455 lb).
Below it, the LP-4016YF has a 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in) table, 1,900 mm (74.8 in) of Y and 1,700 mm (66.9 in) between columns. Above it, the LP-4025YF widens the table to 4,020 x 2,400 mm (158.3 x 94.5 in), opens the columns to 2,700 mm (106.3 in) and carries 15,000 kg (33,069 lb). Choosing among the three comes down to part width. The LP-4021YF passes 2,300 mm (90.6 in) between its columns.
Five-face work multiplies tool changes, because each side of the part wants its own drills and cutters in the horizontal head. The vertical / horizontal ATC system serves both spindle orientations, and AWEA says it works with sensors and sequence scanning. Standard capacity is 32 tools; 60, 90 and 120 are options. A tool may be 350 mm (13.8 in) long and weigh 20 kg (44 lb), with a diameter of Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in), or Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) when the neighbouring pockets stay empty.
Rapid traverse is 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) on all three axes and cutting feed runs 1 ~ 10,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 394 ipm). The spindle is listed at 6,000 rpm with a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor, in BT50 (ISO50) or optional DIN69871-A, and direct drive 8,000 / 10,000 rpm spindles can be ordered instead. Weight is 38,000 kg (83,774 lb).

Frequently Asked Questions
01
32 as standard; AWEA lists 60-tool, 90-tool and 120-tool ATC systems as options. A tool can be up to 350 mm (13.8 in) long and 20 kg (44 lb). The diameter limit is Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in), rising to Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) with the adjacent pockets left empty.
02
In width and load. The LP-4016YF has 1,900 mm (74.8 in) of Y and a 4,200 x 1,500 mm (165.4 x 59.1 in) table. The LP-4021YF has 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y, a 4,020 x 2,010 mm (158.3 x 79.1 in) table and a 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) rating. The LP-4025YF has 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y and a 4,020 x 2,400 mm (158.3 x 94.5 in) table for 15,000 kg (33,069 lb).
03
Yes. AWEA calls it a vertical / horizontal ATC system and says it provides tool change with sensors and sequence scanning. Together with the automatic head changer it is what AWEA describes as turning the LP series into a 5-face machining center.
04
Roller type linear guide ways on the X and Y axes and a hardened, precisely ground box way on Z. AWEA notes one exception: Z can be built with roller type linear guide ways if the machine is equipped with a high speed direct drive spindle.
05
The distance from spindle nose to table is 200 ~ 960 mm (7.9 ~ 37.8 in) with 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z travel. For taller work the LP-4021YZF is listed with 200 ~ 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in) and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z.
