Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the AWEA LP-4021YZF that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from AWEA or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

How tall a part fits under the AWEA LP-4021YZF? The spindle nose stands 200 ~ 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in) above the table and Z travels 1,000 mm (39.4 in). That headroom is the reason to pick this model over the LP-4021YF, which offers 200 ~ 960 mm (7.9 ~ 37.8 in) and 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z on the same table.

Headroom matters twice on a 5-face machine. A tall part needs it, and so does a short part once a horizontal head hangs below the ram and has to come down beside the work. With 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y travel over a table 2,010 mm wide, the head also has stroke left to step outside the part on either side.

A longer Z stroke puts more demand on the head and its guides. AWEA uses a hardened and ground box way on Z, and places the main spindle, the motor, the ball screw and the hydraulic counter weight cylinders symmetrically in the head. The Y-axis guide ways are offset from each other, which the maker says shortens the distance from spindle to cross beam.

The working area is a 4,020 x 2,010 mm (158.3 x 79.1 in) table for 12,000 kg (26,455 lb), with 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X and 2,300 mm (90.6 in) between columns. All three axes rapid at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm). A 4,000 rpm spindle on a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor is standard, and the machine weighs 38,000 kg (83,774 lb).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • 200 ~ 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in) from spindle nose to table, with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z travel
  • 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y, more than the 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of the LP-4021YF
  • Hardened and ground box way on Z, with hydraulic counter weight cylinders placed symmetrically in the head
  • Offset Y-axis roller guide ways that shorten the distance from spindle to cross beam
  • 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) on a 4,020 x 2,010 mm (158.3 x 79.1 in) table

Limitations

  • Column spacing is 2,300 mm (90.6 in); the LP-4025YZF opens to 2,700 mm (106.3 in)
  • Standard spindle speed is 4,000 rpm, lower than the 6,000 rpm of the LP-4021YF
  • X rapid of 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm), against 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) on the LP-3021YZF
  • Tool length is limited to 350 mm (13.8 in), which caps how deep a single tool reaches into a tall part

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How much vertical clearance does the LP-4021YZF have?

The distance from spindle nose to table is 200 ~ 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in), covered by 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z travel. Remember that fixtures, a horizontal head and the tool itself all come out of that figure; the longest tool the magazine accepts is 350 mm (13.8 in).

02 Should I choose the LP-4021YZF or the LP-4021YF?

Choose by part height and spindle. The LP-4021YF has 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z, 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y and a 6,000 rpm spindle. The LP-4021YZF has 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z, 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y and a 4,000 rpm standard spindle with built-in 6,000 / 8,000 rpm units among its options. Table, load and weight are the same.

03 What are the narrower and wider alternatives at 4,000 mm of X?

The LP-4016YZF is the narrower one, with 1,900 mm (74.8 in) of Y, 1,700 mm (66.9 in) between columns and a weight of 33,000 kg (72,751 lb). The LP-4025YZF is the wider one, with 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y, 2,700 mm (106.3 in) between columns, a 15,000 kg (33,069 lb) load and a weight of 44,000 kg (97,002 lb).

04 How does AWEA keep the long Z axis stable?

The maker points to three things: a high rigidity box way on Z that is hardened and precisely ground, a head in which the main spindle, spindle motor, ball screw and hydraulic counter weight cylinders are symmetrically placed, and Y-axis roller type linear guide ways offset from each other to reduce the distance between spindle and cross beam.

05 What accuracy is listed for the LP-4021YZF?

P ≤ 0.030 mm over full travel with Ps ≤ 0.025 mm repeatability under VDI. Under JIS the table gives ± 0.015 mm over full travel and ± 0.003 mm repeatability.
