How much does the Yawei HPC-2048 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Yawei HPC-2048 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 Yawei HPC-2048 handles 1,250 mm sheet up to 5,000 mm long with 196 kN of nominal force. Yawei lists the sheet size as 1,250 x 5,000 mm (49.2 x 196.9 in) including one repositioning.
Among Yawei's punches for that sheet it is the lightest, at 14,500 kg (31,966 lb). The HPC-3048 with 294 kN weighs 16,000 kg (35,273 lb) in the same 5,530 mm by 5,000 mm outline. Whether the saving in mass is worth a third of the force depends on the thickest job in the mix.
The turret and motion data do not change with the force rating. 38 standard die positions are listed, a punching frequency of 2,000 cpm, and a sheet travelling speed of 102 m/min. Punching accuracy is ±0.1 mm (±0.0039 in).
Long, narrow panels are the natural work: lift cladding, cabinet doors, curtain wall cassettes, all named among the industries Yawei shows for the HPC. They are thin, they carry many small holes and slots, and they rarely call for a large punch at full thickness. The servo main axis and the constant-mesh rotating station are as on the rest of the series, and the maker claims low energy use, with 6.1 kW (8.2 hp) given as the working power.
