Uncertain

We do not have a price for the AWEA MEGA5 P5026 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

A 5,000 x 1,500 mm (196.9 x 59.1 in) table under a 24,000 rpm 5-axis head: the AWEA MEGA5 P5026 is built for parts that are long and slim. Wing ribs, spars, rail sections, extrusion dies and machine beams fit that shape. X travel is 5,000 mm (196.9 in), which matches the table, with 2,620 mm (103.1 in) of Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z.

It is the longest machine on AWEA's 1,700 mm (66.9 in) bridge, and the figures show it. X rapid traverse is 10 m / min, half the Y rate of 20 m / min. Positioning by the VDI method is P ≦ 0.040 mm with repeatability of Ps ≦ 0.030 mm, the widest tolerances of the four machines on this frame, though the JIS values of ± 0.015 mm and ± 0.003 mm are the ones every size shares. AWEA fits machines with an X-axis of 5 m and longer with a ball screw vibration absorber, so this is the only model of the narrow frame to have one.

Table load is 14,000 kg (30,864 lb) and machine weight 41,000 kg (90,388 lb). The spindle is the HSK-A63 unit of the TCH-20F head at 42 / 55 kW (56.3 / 73.8 hp).

There is a wider machine with the same X stroke. The MEGA5 P5032 takes parts 2,400 mm (94.5 in) across and loads of 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), but its cutting feed is 8 m / min and it weighs 56,500 kg (124,559 lb). The MEGA5 P5026 keeps the full 10 m / min cutting feed, which counts on a part where most of the cycle is one long contouring pass.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

5,000 mm (196.9 in) of X travel with a table of matching length
Cutting feed of 10 m / min, where the wider MEGA5 P5032 is listed at 8 m / min
Ball screw vibration absorber on the X axis, fitted by AWEA to machines of 5 m and longer
14,000 kg (30,864 lb) table load, the highest of the 1,700 mm (66.9 in) frame
24,000 rpm spindle and a 40-tool magazine for long unattended finishing cycles

Limitations

X rapid traverse is 10 m / min; the MEGA5 P4026 moves at 15 m / min
VDI positioning accuracy of P ≦ 0.040 mm over full travel, against P ≦ 0.030 mm on the MEGA5 P4026
A table 1,500 mm (59.1 in) wide on a 5,000 mm stroke rules out square or wide parts
850 mm (33.5 in) maximum workpiece height

Best For

Long slim aerospace parts such as spars, ribs and stringers Rail, beam and extrusion tooling up to 5,000 x 1,500 mm Several shorter parts fixtured end to end along one table High-speed contouring in aluminium at up to 24,000 rpm

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the ball screw vibration absorber on the MEGA5 P5026?

AWEA equips machines with an X-axis of 5 m and longer with a ball screw vibration absorber. The maker's stated purpose is to reduce vibration and deformation of the screw and so raise machining accuracy. The X axis is driven from the centre of the table by a single ball screw, and at 5,000 mm (196.9 in) of travel that screw is long enough for the maker to add the absorber.

02 How much accuracy is lost over 5,000 mm of travel?

By the VDI method the MEGA5 P5026 is listed at P ≦ 0.040 mm positioning and Ps ≦ 0.030 mm repeatability over full travel. The JIS figures are ± 0.015 mm and ± 0.003 mm. For comparison, the MEGA5 P4026 is listed at P ≦ 0.030 mm and Ps ≦ 0.025 mm by the VDI method.

03 Will the slow X rapid hurt cycle times?

It depends on the part. X rapid is 10 m / min, while Y is 20 m / min and Z is 15 m / min. Jobs with many repositioning moves along the length will feel it. Contouring is governed by the cutting feed instead, and that is 10 m / min, equal to the X rapid itself.

04 MEGA5 P5026 or MEGA5 P5032 for a 5 m part?

The MEGA5 P5026 takes parts up to 1,500 mm (59.1 in) wide and 14,000 kg (30,864 lb), with a 24,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle and a 10 m / min cutting feed. The MEGA5 P5032 takes parts up to 2,400 mm (94.5 in) wide and 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), with a 12,000 rpm HSK-A100 spindle and an 8 m / min cutting feed. Narrow light-alloy work favours the first, wide or heavy work the second.

05 Can the high torque head be ordered on this model?

AWEA's specification for the MEGA5 P5026 is footnoted as applying to the TCH-20F head, with other options to be discussed with the maker. The series literature describes the TCH-30F as the high torque head, giving 314 Nm at 1,540 rpm. No dimensions or tool limits for that combination are published for this model.
