AWEA MEGA5 G8047 — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the AWEA MEGA5 G8047 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

The AWEA MEGA5 G8047 sits in the middle of the wide-frame MEGA5 G gantry machines, between the MEGA5 G6047 and the MEGA5 G10047. Travels are 8,000 mm (315.0 in) in X, 4,700 mm (185.0 in) in Y and 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in Z, and the two-axis milling head works over a table of 8,000 x 4,800 mm (315.0 x 189.0 in).

Height is the dimension to study on this model. Z travel can be ordered as 1,400 mm in place of the standard stroke, and the clearance depends on the head. For the TCH-30F the spindle nose to table distance is 200 ~ 1,400 mm, or 200 ~ 1,600 mm with the longer Z. For the TCH-20F it is 355 ~ 1,555 mm, or 355 ~ 1,755 mm. The listed maximum workpiece height is 1,050 mm (41.3 in), so deep cavities and tall fixtures need to be checked against the head chosen and the tool length, which may be up to 350 mm (13.8 in).

In plan the machine is generous. The columns stand 5,800 mm (228.3 in) apart, the table takes 2,500 kg/m², and T-slots are 28 x 200 mm.

Positioning under VDI is P = 0.040 mm over full travel with Ps = 0.030 mm, the same as the MEGA5 G8037 on the narrower frame. Weight is another matter: 139,500 kg (307,540 lb) here, 104,500 kg (230,379 lb) for the MEGA5 G8037. Rapids are 20 m / min in X, 12 m / min in Y and 10 m / min in Z.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • 8,000 x 4,800 mm (315.0 x 189.0 in) fixed table with 4,700 mm (185.0 in) of Y travel
  • Optional 1,400 mm Z travel, raising the TCH-30F spindle nose clearance to 200 ~ 1,600 mm
  • Same VDI figures as the narrower MEGA5 G8037: P = 0.040 mm and Ps = 0.030 mm
  • Table load of 2,500 kg/m² on a table that does not move
  • HSK-A100 spindle at 12,000 rpm with a 40 / 50 kW (53.6 / 67.1 hp) built-in motor

Limitations

  • Maximum workpiece height of 1,050 mm (41.3 in) on a table 4,800 mm wide
  • 139,500 kg (307,540 lb), heavier even than the longer MEGA5 G10037 at 132,000 kg (291,005 lb)
  • Y rapid of 12 m / min, slower than the 15 m / min of the MEGA5 G8037
  • The longer Z travel is an option, not standard

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How much room is there between the spindle and the table?

It depends on the head and the Z option. With the TCH-30F the spindle nose to table distance is 200 ~ 1,400 mm, or 200 ~ 1,600 mm with the optional Z travel. With the TCH-20F it is 355 ~ 1,555 mm, or 355 ~ 1,755 mm with the option. AWEA lists the maximum workpiece height as 1,050 mm (41.3 in).

02 MEGA5 G8047 or MEGA5 G8037?

Both have 8,000 mm (315.0 in) of X travel and the same accuracy figures. The G8047 gives 4,700 mm (185.0 in) of Y on an 8,000 x 4,800 mm (315.0 x 189.0 in) table and weighs 139,500 kg (307,540 lb). The MEGA5 G8037 gives 3,700 mm (145.7 in) of Y on an 8,000 x 3,800 mm (315.0 x 149.6 in) table, weighs 104,500 kg (230,379 lb) and has the faster Y rapid, 15 m / min against 12 m / min.

03 What tools can the magazine of the G8047 hold?

The standard drum type magazine is 20 T, with 40 tools optional. The taper is HSK-A100. Maximum tool length is 350 mm (13.8 in), maximum tool weight is 15 kg (33 lb) and the maximum tool diameter is listed as Ø160 / Ø230 mm (Ø6.3 / Ø9.1 in).

04 How does the spindle cope with long cycles on large parts?

AWEA describes a built-in spindle motor with an intelligent spindle cooling system: the spindle reaches its optimal temperature within 10 minutes from a cold start and stays stable from then on. The head also has an integrated water cooling circuit, which the maker links to accuracy during long-term machining operations.
