How much does the AWEA LP-5021YF cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-5021YF 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.

AWEA LP-5021YF — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the AWEA LP-5021YF 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

At 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X travel the AWEA LP-5021YF gives up some speed for length. Its X rapid is 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm), where the LP-4021YF has 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm), and cutting feed is 1 ~ 8,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 315 ipm). Y and Z still rapid at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm).

Length shows in the accuracy rows too. VDI positioning is P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel and repeatability Ps ≤ 0.030 mm. The JIS figures stay at ± 0.015 mm and ± 0.003 mm.

What the longer bed buys is a 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table that carries 15,000 kg (33,069 lb). AWEA builds the base in one piece on 4 guide ways and says it is enlarged in proportion to the travel, so the table keeps its support at the ends of the stroke instead of hanging over. The X-axis ball screw is placed in the centre of the axis, which AWEA says avoids yawing and uneven guide way wear, and a vibration absorber is fitted to steady the long screw.

In the other two axes this is the same 5-face machine as its shorter relatives: 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y, 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z, 200 ~ 960 mm (7.9 ~ 37.8 in) from spindle nose to table and 2,300 mm (90.6 in) between columns. An automatic head changer and a vertical / horizontal ATC system do the 5-face work. The machine weighs 42,000 kg (92,593 lb).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table rated for 15,000 kg (33,069 lb)
  • One-piece base on 4 guide ways, enlarged with the travel so the table does not overhang
  • Centre-driven X axis with a ball screw vibration absorber
  • Y and Z rapids remain 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) at this length
  • JIS repeatability of ± 0.003 mm

Limitations

  • X rapid of 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm); the LP-4021YF is listed at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm)
  • Cutting feed is capped at 8,000 mm/min (315 ipm)
  • VDI positioning widens to P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel
  • 42,000 kg (92,593 lb) of machine to found and install

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Why is the LP-5021YF slower in X than the shorter models?

AWEA's table simply lists a lower figure as the travel grows: 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) on the LP-3021YF, 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) on the LP-4021YF and 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) on the LP-5021YF. The maker also fits a vibration absorber to reduce the vibration of the long ball screw, which points to the screw length as the limiting part.

02 What cutting feed can the LP-5021YF reach?

1 ~ 8,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 315 ipm). That sits between the LP-4021YF at 1 ~ 10,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 394 ipm) and the LP-6021YF at 1 ~ 5,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 197 ipm).

03 How is the long table supported?

On a one-piece base with 4 guide ways. AWEA says the base is enlarged proportional to the length of the travel to eliminate table overhang while keeping structural support. The X and Y axes run on roller type linear guide ways.

04 How heavy a workpiece can the table take?

15,000 kg (33,069 lb) on a 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table. The next step up in load at this X travel is the LP-5025YF, rated for 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) on a 5,020 x 2,400 mm (197.6 x 94.5 in) table.

05 What positioning accuracy is listed?

Under VDI, P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel with repeatability of Ps ≤ 0.030 mm. Under JIS, ± 0.015 mm over full travel with repeatability of ± 0.003 mm. The VDI figures are wider than those of the LP-3021YF, which is listed at P ≤ 0.025 mm.
