The price estimate for the AWEA VP-6012 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-vp-6012#price; the request is passed to AWEA or an authorised dealer.
A direct drive spindle at 10,000 rpm with a BBT50 taper and a 22 / 26 kW (29.5 / 34.9 hp) motor. The other 1,200 mm Y models in the VP table are listed with a gear spindle at 6,000 rpm instead. AWEA's spindle page for the series also pictures a direct drive 15,000 rpm head, which the VP-6012 column does not list.
Up to 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) on the 6,000 x 1,100 mm (236.2 x 43.3 in) table. That is less than the VP-5012 at 8,000 kg (17,637 lb), so a heavy five-metre part belongs on the shorter machine.
AWEA's series description gives a hardened, ground box way on Z as the base design and states that roller type linear guide ways can be fitted on Z when the machine has the high speed direct drive spindle. The table for the VP-6012 does not say which is fitted, so confirm it with the maker when ordering.
The magazine is listed with 32 tools, or 24 or 40 as options. A tool may be up to Ø125 mm (Ø4.9 in), or Ø229 mm (Ø9.0 in) with adjacent pockets empty, up to 350 mm (13.8 in) long and up to 15 kg (33 lb).
The machine weighs 35,000 kg (77,160 lb). Power requirement is 40 kVA, three phase. Air must be supplied at 5 ~ 7 kg/cm². The coolant tank holds 465 liter, the hydraulic unit tank 8 liter and the lubrication tank 4.6 liter.
