Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Yawei HPE-3048 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
Standard 1,250 mm sheet, run long, is the format of the Yawei HPE-3048. This servo turret punch press handles 1,250 x 5,000 mm (49.2 x 196.9 in) with one repositioning and delivers 294 kN at a punching frequency of 2,300 cpm.
It shares its sheet size with a machine from Yawei's high-end line. The HPM-3048 also lists 1,250 x 5,000 mm, and it is 5,610 mm (220.9 in) long, as this one is. The HPM-3048 punches at 2,500 cpm, runs seven axes and weighs 17,500 kg (38,580 lb). The HPE-3048 lists 5 (X, Y, T, C, Z) and weighs 16,000 kg (35,273 lb). For work that does not need the higher hit rate, the HPE is the lighter machine of the pair.
Inside the HPE series the choice is about length. The HPE-3047 stops at a 4,000 mm sheet and is 4,000 mm (157.5 in) wide; this model is 5,000 mm (196.9 in) wide. The HPE-3044 takes only 1,250 x 2,500 mm (49.2 x 98.4 in).
Tooling limits are a maximum punch diameter of Φ88.9 mm (3.5 in) and material up to 6.35 mm (0.25 in) in carbon steel or 4 mm (0.16 in) in stainless. Accuracy is ±0.1 mm (±0.0039 in). Yawei highlights the servo head's dead-point positioning accuracy of 0.01mm, useful for louvres, embosses and other formed features where depth has to repeat.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,250 x 5,000 mm (49.2 x 196.9 in) capacity for long 1,250 mm sheet
- Weighs 16,000 kg (35,273 lb), less than the 17,500 kg (38,580 lb) of the HPM-3048 with the same sheet size
- 2,300 cpm punching frequency with 410 cpm (25.4 mm step, 6 mm stroke)
- Servo head with 0.01mm dead-point positioning accuracy for formed features
Limitations
- Lists five axes and 2,300 cpm against seven axes and 2,500 cpm on the HPM-3048
- 5,000 mm (196.9 in) wide, a metre more than the HPE-3047
- Die position count is missing from the HPE table
- Full sheet length is reached only with a repositioning

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Both list 294 kN, a 1,250 x 5,000 mm sheet and the same thickness limits. The HPM-3048 has a punching frequency of 2,500 cpm, 56 standard die positions and seven axes, and weighs 17,500 kg (38,580 lb). The HPE-3048 lists 2,300 cpm, five axes and 16,000 kg (35,273 lb).
02
1,250 x 5,000 mm (49.2 x 196.9 in), including one repositioning. Thickness is limited to 6.35 mm (0.25 in) in carbon steel and 4 mm (0.16 in) in stainless steel.
03
Length 5,610 mm (220.9 in), width 5,000 mm (196.9 in), height 2,260 mm (89.0 in) and weight 16,000 kg (35,273 lb). Comprehensive working power is 6.1 kW (8.2 hp) and the air source is 0.6 MPa.
04
The maximum diameter of one punch is Φ88.9 mm (3.5 in). Nominal force is 294 kN, so the hole size that can be punched in thick material also depends on the shear strength of the sheet.
