How much does the AWEA LP-5033YZF cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-5033YZF 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-5033YZF is a 5-face bridge machining center for parts that are long, wide and tall at once. Travels are 5,000 mm (196.9 in) in X, 3,900 mm (153.5 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z, the table carries 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), and 3,500 mm (137.8 in) separates the columns.
One figure deserves a second look: 48,000 kg (105,820 lb). That is the listed machine weight, and it is identical to the LP-5033YF, which has only 760 mm (29.9 in) of Z. Anyone planning a foundation should ask AWEA to confirm the number for the configuration ordered, because head, spindle and magazine choices vary widely on this model.
Those choices are the real subject here. Three spindle designs are offered. The standard one is a 4,000 rpm gear spindle with 977 N-m at 254 rpm. A built-in motorized spindle, at 6,000 rpm or 8,000 rpm, gives up to 600 N-m at 350 rpm. A direct drive spindle at 8,000 rpm or 10,000 rpm peaks at 165 N-m at 1,500 rpm and is the choice for high speed work. The magazine starts at 32 tools and can be ordered with 60, 90 or 120.
Software options follow the same pattern. Adoptive feed control, which watches spindle load and adjusts the feed, is listed as an option together with CNC parameter optimization and spindle thermal compensation. On a machine whose cutting feed is capped at 5,000 mm/min (197 ipm), keeping the cutter loaded evenly through a roughing pass is the practical way to shorten the cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It depends on the material. For steel and cast iron with large cutters, the standard 4,000 rpm gear spindle gives 977 N-m at 254 rpm. The built-in spindle, 6,000 rpm or 8,000 rpm, still delivers 600 N-m at 350 rpm and covers mixed roughing and finishing. The direct drive spindle, 8,000 rpm or 10,000 rpm with 165 N-m at 1,500 rpm, is the one for light, fast cuts. All use a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor rating in the table.
02
The LP-5025YZF is the narrower machine: 2,700 mm (106.3 in) between columns and 3,200 mm (126.0 in) of Y, where the LP-5033YZF has 3,500 mm (137.8 in) and 3,900 mm (153.5 in). Both have 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X, 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z and an 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) table load. The LP-5025YZF has a 750 liter coolant tank; this machine has 1,000 liter.
03
Maximum tool length is 350 mm (13.8 in) from the gauge line and maximum weight is 20 kg (44 lb). Diameter is Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in), or Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) when the adjacent pockets are left empty. These limits apply to the 32-tool magazine and to the optional larger ones alike.
04
It is an option. According to AWEA it 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. CNC parameter optimization and spindle thermal compensation are listed as options in the same group.
05
Under VDI the machine is listed at P ≤ 0.040 mm positioning accuracy over full travel and Ps ≤ 0.030 mm repeatability. JIS repeatability is ± 0.003 mm. The LP-4033YZF is tighter at P ≤ 0.030 mm and the LP-6033YZF wider at P ≤ 0.050 mm, so accuracy tracks X length in this group.
