How much does the AWEA LP-5021YZF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-5021YZF 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
The AWEA LP-5021YZF pairs the tall YZF column, with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z and 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y, to a 5,000 mm (196.9 in) X axis and a 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table for 15,000 kg (33,069 lb). Parts of that size mean long cycles, often with nobody standing at the door, so the monitoring functions of the control deserve as much attention as the travels.
AWEA describes a tool loading monitor that watches each tool setting and detects breakage before the workpiece is damaged. Adoptive feed control (AFC) reads the spindle load in real time and adjusts the axis feed; the maker says this extends tool life, shortens roughing and flags abnormal cutting. AFC appears in AWEA's option list together with spindle thermal compensation and CNC parameter optimization, so none of the three should be assumed on a quoted machine.
Feed figures fall as the bed grows. X rapid is 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) and cutting feed is 1 ~ 8,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 315 ipm), where the LP-4021YZF has 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) and 1 ~ 10,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 394 ipm).
The standard spindle runs to 4,000 rpm on a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor in BT50 (ISO50). AWEA states 977 N-m at 254 rpm for its 4,000 rpm high torque spindle. VDI positioning is P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel, and the machine weighs 42,000 kg (92,593 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Tool loading monitor that detects tool breakage during the cycle
- 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z and 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y over a 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table
- 15,000 kg (33,069 lb) table load, up from 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) on the LP-4021YZF
- 977 N-m at 254 rpm stated for the 4,000 rpm high torque spindle
- Magazine of 32 tools, expandable to 60, 90 or 120 for long unattended programs
Limitations

Frequently Asked Questions
01
AWEA says adoptive feed control monitors the spindle load in real time and controls the axial feed rate, which extends tool life, shortens rough cutting time and detects abnormal cutting conditions. It is in the maker's option list, alongside CNC parameter optimization and spindle thermal compensation.
02
AWEA describes a tool loading monitor that can monitor each tool setting and detect tool breakage, to lower the chance of damage to the workpiece. On a table that carries 15,000 kg (33,069 lb), a scrapped part is costly in material and hours, which is why this function matters more here than on a small machine.
03
Spindle thermal compensation is marked as an option. AWEA describes it as monitoring temperature and compensating automatically to reduce the effect of heat on the structure. Separately, the direct drive spindle options are said to keep motor heat apart from the spindle.
04
Height, width of stroke and spindle. The LP-5021YF has 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z, 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y and a 6,000 rpm spindle. The LP-5021YZF has 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z, 2,800 mm (110.2 in) of Y and a 4,000 rpm standard spindle. Both share the 5,020 x 2,010 mm table, the 15,000 kg load and a weight of 42,000 kg (92,593 lb).
05
Rapid traverse is 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) in X and 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) in Y and Z. Cutting feed is 1 ~ 8,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 315 ipm).
