How much does the You Ji HMC1200 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the You Ji HMC1200 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 You Ji HMC1200 is a large horizontal machining center for castings up to 5,000 kg (11,023 lb). Its table measures 1,400 x 1,200 mm (55.1 x 47.2 in), and its travels are 1,800 mm (70.9 in) in X, 1,500 mm (59.1 in) in Y and 1,500 mm (59.1 in) in Z, plus a W-axis of 700 mm (27.6 in).
Height is what this size brings. Y-axis travel grows by half over the HMC1000's 1,000 mm (39.4 in), and the machine itself rises to 4,560 mm (179.5 in). A tall gearbox housing, a valve block stood on end or a machine column section can be faced and bored over a 1,500 mm (59.1 in) vertical range in one setting on the B-axis rotary table.
The spindle side is carried over: BT-50, 3,500 rpm and 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp). On a 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) workpiece that motor is on the light side for heavy roughing, and it is the reason to look at the HMC1600 if metal removal is the priority, since that model has 30/37 kW (40.2/49.6 hp).
With the 700 mm (27.6 in) W-axis, bores deep inside a housing are reached without long, flexible tool extensions. You Ji lists the series with a B-axis rotary table (B) or with a B-axis rotary table and automatic pallet changer (BP). Whether a pallet changer is practical at this weight is a question for the quotation. Floor space is 5,870 x 5,120 mm (231.1 x 201.6 in).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,500 mm (59.1 in) of Y-axis and of Z-axis travel
- 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) table load on a 1,400 x 1,200 mm (55.1 x 47.2 in) table
- 700 mm (27.6 in) W-axis for deep boring
- 1,800 mm (70.9 in) X-axis travel
- BT-50 spindle with 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp)
Limitations
- Spindle motor is the same 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp) as on the much smaller HMC800
- 3,500 rpm maximum spindle speed
- Machine height of 4,560 mm (179.5 in) needs a tall bay
- Table length of 1,400 mm (55.1 in) is shorter than the X travel, so long parts overhang

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Table size is 1,400 x 1,200 mm (55.1 x 47.2 in) and maximum table load 5,000 kg (11,023 lb). Travels are X 1,800 mm (70.9 in), Y 1,500 mm (59.1 in), Z 1,500 mm (59.1 in) and W 700 mm (27.6 in).
02
The spindle motor is 22/26 kW (29.5/34.9 hp) and the speed 3,500 rpm, on a BT-50 taper. The HMC1600 above it uses a 30/37 kW (40.2/49.6 hp) motor.
03
Machine height is 4,560 mm (179.5 in), compared with 3,660 mm (144.1 in) for the HMC1000. Floor space is 5,870 x 5,120 mm (231.1 x 201.6 in).
04
B, a B-axis rotary table, and BP, a B-axis rotary table with automatic pallet changer. The catalogue lists both codes for the whole HMC series without saying which sizes each applies to.
