How much does the AWEA LP-5025YF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-5025YF 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
At 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X travel the AWEA LP-5025YF crosses a line in the feed table. Its cutting feed range is 1 ~ 5,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 197 ipm) and its X rapid is 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm), where the LP-4025YF, one size shorter, is listed at 1 ~ 10,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 394 ipm) and 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm). Y and Z still rapid at 15,000 mm/min.
What the length buys is capacity. The table measures 5,020 x 2,400 mm (197.6 x 94.5 in) and carries 18,000 kg (39,683 lb). Y travel is 3,200 mm (126.0 in), Z is 760 mm (29.9 in), and the spindle nose sits 200 ~ 960 mm (7.9 ~ 37.8 in) above the table. This is a machine for long, heavy parts cut at moderate feeds, with the head changer there to finish the side faces in one clamping.
Halving the top feed puts more weight on how well each cut is used. Two entries on AWEA's control option list speak to that. Adoptive feed control monitors spindle load in real time and adjusts the axial feed rate, which the maker says extends tool life and shortens rough cutting time. CNC parameter optimization is the other, and spindle thermal compensation is listed beside them. All three are options.
The spindle is the 6,000 rpm BT50 unit with a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor, described by AWEA as delivering 642 N-m at 387 rpm. Accuracy under the VDI standard is P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel with Ps ≤ 0.030 mm repeatability. The LP-5025YF weighs 45,000 kg (99,206 lb), which is also the listed weight of the vertical-only LP-5025.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) of table load across a 5,020 x 2,400 mm (197.6 x 94.5 in) table
- 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X with 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y for side-face access with a horizontal head
- 6,000 rpm high torque spindle described at 642 N-m at 387 rpm from the 26 kW motor
- Adoptive feed control, CNC parameter optimization and spindle thermal compensation can be added
- 45,000 kg (99,206 lb), no heavier than the LP-5025 without the 5-face equipment
Limitations
- Cutting feed tops out at 5,000 mm/min (197 ipm), half the upper limit of the LP-4025YF
- X rapid traverse of 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) lengthens repositioning over a 5,000 mm stroke
- VDI positioning accuracy of P ≤ 0.040 mm over full travel, against P ≤ 0.030 mm on the LP-4025YF
- The control functions that help most at low feeds are options, not standard

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table lists it that way from this length up. The LP-5025YF has an X rapid of 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm) and a cutting feed of 1 ~ 5,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 197 ipm). The LP-4025YF is listed at 15,000 mm/min (591 ipm) and 1 ~ 10,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 394 ipm). A longer table and a longer ball screw are being moved, and AWEA fits a vibration absorber to steady the long screw.
02
The table is rated for 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) and the machine weighs 45,000 kg (99,206 lb). Both figures go into the foundation calculation, along with the fixture. The next length, the LP-6025YF, carries 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) and weighs 49,000 kg (108,025 lb).
03
It is an option of AWEA's i console. The function monitors the spindle load in real time and controls the axial feed rate accordingly. AWEA says this extends tool life, shortens rough cutting time and detects abnormal cutting conditions. On a machine whose cutting feed range ends at 5,000 mm/min (197 ipm), keeping the spindle loaded through a roughing pass is where the time is recovered.
04
Yes. The LP-5021YF has a 5,020 x 2,010 mm (197.6 x 79.1 in) table for 15,000 kg (33,069 lb), 2,400 mm (94.5 in) of Y and a cutting feed of 1 ~ 8,000 mm/min (0.04 ~ 315 ipm), and weighs 42,000 kg (92,593 lb). The LP-5025YF gives the 2,400 mm wide table, 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y and 18,000 kg (39,683 lb).
05
Compressed air at 5 ~ 8 (5) kg/cm², as the table prints it. The hydraulic unit has a 120 liter tank with a 10 HP pump, the lubrication tank holds 6 liter and the coolant tank holds 750 liter with a 1.5 HP pump.
