How much does the AWEA LP-4033YZF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-4033YZF 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
Z travel and the spindle are what set the AWEA LP-4033YZF apart from the YF machine of the same footprint. It has 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z, a spindle nose that rises to 1,200 mm (47.2 in) above the table, and a 4,000 rpm spindle as standard. X travel is 4,000 mm (157.5 in), Y is 3,900 mm (153.5 in) and the columns are 3,500 mm (137.8 in) apart.
The 4,000 rpm unit is the heavy cutter in AWEA's LP spindle family. Its 26 kW motor works through a 2-speed gear box, and the maker quotes 977 N-m at 254 rpm. That torque arrives at a speed suited to large face mills and big drills in steel and cast iron. The LP-4033YF, by comparison, lists a 6,000 rpm spindle. Buyers who want speed on the YZF can order a built-in motorized spindle of 6,000 rpm or 8,000 rpm, or a direct drive spindle of 8,000 rpm or 10,000 rpm.
The axis speeds are arranged differently from the YF as well. Y rapid is 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm), matching X, and Z is 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm). Cutting feed is 1 ~ 5,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 197 ipm). The longer ram and taller structure add mass: this machine weighs 46,000 kg (101,411 lb), the LP-4033YF 44,000 kg (97,002 lb).
Table load is 15,000 kg (33,069 lb). As on every LP-F model, a storage magazine with two cabinets keeps the horizontal head and the spindle cap, and the ATC changes tools in both spindle orientations.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z travel, against 760 mm (29.9 in) on the LP-4033YF
- 4,000 rpm gear spindle standard, quoted at 977 N-m at 254 rpm
- X and Y both rapid at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm)
- Spindle nose to table of 200 ~ 1,200 mm (7.9 ~ 47.2 in) for tall parts and long tools
- Built-in 6,000 rpm or 8,000 rpm and direct drive 8,000 rpm or 10,000 rpm spindles offered as options
Limitations
- Standard spindle speed of 4,000 rpm is low for small-diameter tools and aluminium
- Cutting feed is limited to 5,000 mm/min (197 ipm); the LP-4033YF allows 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm)
- Z rapid of 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) is slower than the 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) Z of the LP-4033YF
- Table load of 15,000 kg (33,069 lb) is the lowest in the 33YZF group

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The LP-4033YZF has 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z and a 4,000 rpm standard spindle; the LP-4033YF has 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z and a 6,000 rpm spindle. Rapids differ too: the YZF runs Y at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) and Z at 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm), the LP-4033YF the other way round. X and Y travel, column spacing and the 15,000 kg (33,069 lb) table load are shared.
02
AWEA states a maximum of 977 N-m at 254 rpm for the 4,000 rpm high torque spindle, driven by a 26 kW motor through a 2-speed gear box. The spindle motor is rated 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) and the taper is BT50, with DIN69871-A as an option. A floating hydraulic tool release keeps the unclamping force off the spindle bearings.
03
Two families. The built-in motorized spindle comes in 6,000 rpm and 8,000 rpm versions with up to 600 N-m at 350 rpm. The direct drive spindle comes in 8,000 rpm and 10,000 rpm versions with up to 165 N-m at 1,500 rpm. With the direct drive spindle the Z axis can be supplied on roller type linear guide ways instead of the standard box way.
04
No. The LP-4033YZF lists P ≤ 0.030 mm positioning accuracy over full travel and Ps ≤ 0.025 mm repeatability under VDI, and ± 0.003 mm repeatability under JIS. Those are the same values the LP-4033YF carries, and the tightest in the 33YZF group.
