The price estimate for the AWEA LP-2516 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-lp-2516#price; the request is passed to AWEA or an authorised dealer.
Both use a 2,310 x 1,500 mm (90.9 x 59.1 in) table rated for 8,000 kg (17,637 lb), with 1,600 mm of Y and 760 mm of Z. The SP-2016 has 2,100 mm (82.7 in) of X travel, weighs 19,000 kg (41,887 lb) and lists 200 ~ 960 mm (7.9 ~ 37.8 in) from spindle nose to table. The LP-2516 has 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of X, weighs 26,000 kg (57,319 lb) and lists 240 ~ 1,000 mm (9.4 ~ 39.4 in).
AWEA's table gives 2,500 mm of X travel over a 2,310 mm long table and does not explain the choice. In practice the spindle centre can pass both ends of the table, which suits end-face work and parts that overhang a little. Plan fixtures to the table length and the 8,000 kg load, not to the stroke.
The table lists 6,000 rpm, a 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP) motor and a BT50 (ISO50) taper with DIN69871-A optional. For the LP series AWEA describes its 6,000 rpm high torque spindle as a 26 kW unit with a maximum of 642 N-m at 387 rpm behind a 2-speed gear box, and a floating hydraulic tool release that keeps pressure off the spindle bearing when a tool is released.
Each of the 32 pockets (40 optional) takes a tool up to Ø127 mm (Ø5.0 in), or Ø215 mm (Ø8.5 in) with the adjacent pockets empty. Maximum tool length is 400 mm (15.7 in) and maximum tool weight is 20 kg (44 lb).
The table lists 5 ~ 8 (5) kg/cm² for air pressure. The hydraulic unit has a 120 liter tank with a 7.5 HP pump, the lubrication tank holds 6 liter and the coolant tank 420 liter with a 1.5 HP pump. No kVA figure is stated, so ask for the connected load when the machine is quoted.
