Frequently Asked Questions: AWEA LP-2516YF

How much does the AWEA LP-2516YF cost?

The price estimate for the AWEA LP-2516YF 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-2516yf#price; the request is passed to AWEA or an authorised dealer.

What separates the LP-2516YF from the LP-2516?

The table, load, X travel and Z travel are the same. This machine has 1,900 mm (74.8 in) of Y, a spindle nose range of 400 ~ 1,160 mm, magazine options of 60 and 90 tools, a 680 liter coolant tank and a weight of 26,500 kg (58,422 lb). The LP-2516 lists 1,600 mm (63.0 in) of Y, 240 ~ 1,000 mm (9.4 ~ 39.4 in) at the nose, a 40-tool option, 420 liter of coolant and 26,000 kg (57,319 lb).

Why is the Y travel longer than the distance between the columns?

The table lists 1,900 mm of Y travel and 1,700 mm between the columns, and AWEA does not comment on it. On a 5-face machine the ram must move beyond the edge of the workpiece so that a horizontal head can face inward and reach the side. The part itself still has to pass between the columns and sit on a table 1,500 mm wide.

Is the 400 mm minimum spindle nose height a problem for ordinary vertical milling?

It can be. With the spindle at the bottom of its 760 mm (29.9 in) stroke the nose is still 400 mm (15.7 in) above the table. A face mill on a short holder will not reach a thin plate lying on the table. Tools may be up to 400 mm long, but for flat work it is simpler to raise the part on parallels or a sub-plate.

How does the head storage work?

AWEA describes an automatic head storage magazine with two cabinets, one for the horizontal head and one for the spindle cap. The exchange slides on linear guide ways, and each cabinet has its own swing door that opens only while a head is being exchanged, which AWEA says keeps contamination out of the storage.

What torque does the standard spindle deliver?

For the 6,000 rpm high torque spindle AWEA states a 26 kW motor and a maximum of 642 N-m at 387 rpm, through a 2-speed gear box. The optional direct drive spindles reach 8,000 or 10,000 rpm and give a maximum of 165 N-m at 1,500 rpm, so they suit finishing and lighter cuts.
