YCM NXV1680B

Q: How much does the YCM NXV1680B cost?

The price estimate for the YCM NXV1680B 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-nxv1680b#price; the request is passed to YCM or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the YCM NXV1680B 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 only 50-taper machine in YCM's NXV range, the NXV1680B pairs a BT50 gearhead spindle with travels of 1,630 mm (64.2 in) in X, 860 mm (33.9 in) in Y and 762 mm (30 in) in Z. Standard spindle speed is 6,000 rpm, and YCM states 18.5 kW (25 HP) and 48 kgf-m of torque for the gearhead.

Torque is the reason to choose it. A geared 6,000 rpm spindle delivers its power low in the speed range, where large face mills, big drills and boring bars work. The magazine is sized to match: tools up to 20 kg (44 lb), ø120 x 350 mm in the 32-tool magazine with adjacent pockets filled and ø240 x 350 mm without neighbours. Tool change takes 4.2 sec tool-to-tool, slower than the BBT40 models of the range, which is normal for tools of this mass.

For shops that need speed as well, the options column lists a 10,000 rpm spindle with 45 kW (60 HP) and a BBT50 taper. The quill-type spindle housing has its own cooling system.

The structure is heavier throughout. The table is 1,730 x 860 mm (68.1 x 33.9 in), rated for 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), with 22 mm T-slots on a 150 mm pitch. Machine weight is 16,500 kg (36,376 lb). Rapids are 24 m/min (945 ipm) on all axes and cutting feed tops out at 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm), half the figure listed for the BBT40 machines of the NXV range.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What spindle does the NXV1680B have?

A gearhead spindle with a BT50 taper, a maximum of 6,000 rpm, 18.5 kW (25 HP) and 48 kgf-m of torque. A 10,000 rpm spindle rated 45 kW (60 HP) is listed as an option, and BBT50 is the optional taper.

02 How large and heavy can the tools be?

Up to 20 kg (44 lb) each. The 24-tool magazine takes ø110 x 350 mm, or ø190 x 350 mm without adjacent tools. The 32 and 40-tool magazines take ø120 x 350 mm, or ø240 x 350 mm without adjacent tools. The standard magazine holds 32 tools.

03 What are the travels and the table load?

X travel is 1,630 mm (64.2 in), Y is 860 mm (33.9 in) and Z is 762 mm (30 in). The table is 1,730 x 860 mm (68.1 x 33.9 in) and carries 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). Spindle nose to table is 200~962 mm (7.9~37.9 in).

04 Is the NXV1680B slower than the other NXV machines?

Yes, on paper. Rapid traverse is 24 m/min (945 ipm) on X, Y and Z, cutting feed is 1~10,000 mm/min, and the tool change is 4.2 sec tool-to-tool. The machine is laid out for heavy cuts with 50-taper tools, where those figures matter less.
