How much does the YCM D3016 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the YCM D3016 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 YCM D3016 is a double-column machining center with roller linear guideways on all three axes and no counterweight on Z. Travels are 3,200 mm in X and 1,600 mm in Y, the table is 3,000 x 1,400 mm, and there is 1,800 mm between the columns.
Most of YCM's bridge mills keep a boxway on the vertical axis. The D3016 does not, and YCM connects the counterweight-free Z axis with lower vibration and better surface roughness. The spindle centre is set close to the Y-axis guideways and the column, the saddle is wide and supported both horizontally and vertically, and the columns stand on widened feet.
The spindle list is unusually specific about torque. The 6,000 rpm spindle has a planetary reduction stage and reaches 891.3 Nm. The 10,000 rpm spindle delivers 477.5 Nm with a maximum of 45 kW. Both are IDD units with a BBT50 taper and water jackets for cooling. The table's standard power entry is 15 kW, with 35 and 45 kW in the options column, so the motor size should be fixed early in a quotation.
A 30-tool magazine is standard, and 32, 40 or 60 tools are optional. Tools can weigh 20 kg and measure ø240 x 350 mm without neighbours. Spindle nose to table is 200~962 mm; with a raised column, or with the optional 1,016 mm Z travel, the page gives longer ranges. Rapids are 20 m/min on every axis, dual chip augers feed a conveyor, and the machine weighs 23,000 kg.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
YCM states that the 6,000 rpm spindle, which has a planetary reduction mechanism, has a maximum torque of 891.3 Nm, and that the 10,000 rpm spindle gives a maximum of 45 kW and 477.5 Nm. Both use a BBT50 taper.
02
X travel is 3,200 mm and Y travel is 1,600 mm. Z travel is 762 mm, or 1,016 mm as an option. The table is 3,000 x 1,400 mm with T-slots listed as 9 x 22 x 160 mm, and the distance between columns is 1,800 mm.
03
Roller type linear guideways on the X, Y and Z axes, which YCM says give low friction, no backlash and high rigidity. The Z axis has no counter weight, for low vibration and better surface roughness.
04
30 tools as standard, with 32, 40 or 60 as options. A tool can weigh 20 kg and measure ø125 x 350 mm with adjacent tools or ø240 x 350 mm without them.
