YCM NTV158A

Q: How much does the YCM NTV158A cost?

The price estimate for the YCM NTV158A is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/ycm-ntv158a#price; the request is passed to YCM or an authorised dealer.

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the YCM NTV158A 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 NTV158A puts a 40-taper, 12,000 rpm spindle on a T-base machine with a 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) table. Travels are 1,530 mm (60.24 in) in X, 762 mm (30.00 in) in Y and 700 mm (27.56 in) in Z, over a table of 1,650 x 760 mm (64.96 x 29.92 in).

YCM's older T-base machines, the TV series, slide on square ways and rapid far more slowly. The NTV keeps the overhang-free table support and replaces the ways with roller type linear guideways on all axes: six blocks on X, three guideways on Y. The result is 30 m/min in X and Y and 24 m/min in Z. YCM also points out that the T-shaped base reduces the footprint.

The head has no counterweight, which lowers the moving inertia and lets the Z axis follow fast feed changes without vibration. The IDD spindle is rated 22 kW (30 HP), with cooling for the motor seat and spindle and oil-air lubrication for long running at speed. A 15,000 rpm version is the option.

A large, heavily loaded table with a fast 40-taper spindle fits big aluminium parts and large molds finished with small tools. The magazine holds 24 tools, with 30 or 40 optional, each up to 6 kg (13.2 lb). Dual screw-type chip augers clear the work area, and the machine weighs 14,170 kg (31,239 lb). For 50-taper tooling on the same travels, YCM offers the NTV158B.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the NTV158A and the NTV158B?

The spindle. The NTV158A has a BBT40 spindle at 12,000 rpm and takes 6 kg (13.2 lb) tools. The NTV158B has a BBT50 spindle at 10,000 rpm, 20 kg (44.1 lb) tools, a dual-driven Z axis and weighs 15,500 kg (34,171 lb) against 14,170 kg (31,239 lb).

02 What are the travels and table size of the NTV158A?

X is 1,530 mm (60.24 in), Y is 762 mm (30.00 in) and Z is 700 mm (27.56 in). The table is 1,650 x 760 mm (64.96 x 29.92 in), with T-slots listed as 5 x 22 x 150 mm, and takes 2,000 kg (4,409 lb).

03 How fast are the axes?

Rapid traverse is listed as 30/30/24 m/min for X, Y and Z, and cutting feed as 1~10,000 mm/min. All axes run on roller type linear guideways with preloaded ball screws driven directly by the servo motors.

04 How is the spindle kept cool?

YCM lists a cooling system for the spindle motor seat and the spindle, giving real time control of spindle temperature, and an oil-air lubrication system for long-term high-speed operation. The spindle is YCM's direct-drive IDD design.
