How much does the YCM NDC4022B cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the YCM NDC4022B 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
Largest three-axis machine of the NDC series, the YCM NDC4022B has a 4,000 x 1,800 mm (157.48 x 70.87 in) table rated for 15,000 kg (33,069 lb). X travel is 4,200 mm (165.35 in), Y travel 2,200 mm (86.61 in), and the columns stand 2,200 mm (86.61 in) apart.
Fifteen tonnes on the table brings the big jobs into reach: automotive stamping dies, large injection mold halves, turbine and compressor casings, bases for other machine tools. Such parts are usually rough-cast or flame-cut with a lot of stock, and the machine is equipped for removing it. The spindle gearbox, built by YCM, is a 2-step transmission with oil cooling, driving a BBT50 spindle with 35 kW (46.9 hp), or 45 kW (60.3 hp) as an option.
Moving that much mass along X is done by a direct gear drive, not a ball screw. The head is a box structure sliding on a boxway, and the columns carry it on bases widened with boots so that the headstock cannot lean forward under load.
Buyers comparing it with the NDC3022B get one more metre of table and a higher load rating on the same cross section. Rapid traverse is 15 m/min in X and Z and 20 m/min in Y. T-slots are 28 mm wide on a 200 mm pitch. A 10,000 rpm IDD spindle is the alternative to the 6,000 rpm gearbox spindle, Z travel is 762 mm (30 in) or optionally 1,016 mm (40 in), and the magazine takes 32 tools, or 40, 60 or 120. Machine weight is 37,000 kg (81,570 lb).
