The price estimate for the AWEA HD-2012 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/awea-hd-2012#price; the request is passed to AWEA or an authorised dealer.
AWEA states a maximum torque output of 662 Nm at 387 rpm from the 6,000 rpm spindle with its 26 kW motor. The drive is a 2-step gearbox, so the low range supplies torque for large cutters and the high range carries the spindle to its top speed. The specification table rates the motor at 22 / 26 kW (29.5 / 34.9 hp).
AWEA's description assigns roller type linear guide ways to X and Y for rigidity with precision, and box ways to Z, calling them best suited to heavy-duty cutting. Z is the axis that takes the thrust of drilling and the reaction of a face mill, so that is where the maker put the sliding contact. The Z rapid is 15 m/min (591 ipm).
The maker claims up to 20% more structural rigidity for the bridge and base. It also states that the contact area between column and bed is up to 42% larger and the column cross section 24% larger. These are AWEA's own comparisons with its earlier design, published without test conditions for the rigidity figure.
It depends on the stage. The HD-2012 is the roughing machine: 6,000 rpm through a gearbox, box ways on Z and a 4,500 kg (9,921 lb) table. The VP-2012HS finishes faster with a direct-driven 10,000 rpm spindle and a 12 m/min (472 ipm) cutting feed, against 10 m/min (394 ipm) here. Travels match on all three axes.
AWEA describes a tool loading monitor that watches each tool setting and detects breakage. Adoptive feed control, which adjusts feed rate from spindle load, appears in the option list together with spindle thermal compensation. An automatic tool length measurement screen handling up to 12 tool length measurements is marked Opt. as well.
