2018 AWEA VP3012 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The AWEA VP3012 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.'s VP series, engineered for high-speed machining of aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and die-steel components requiring elevated spindle performance and large work envelopes. The VP3012 features a CAT-40 spindle taper with a 30 HP motor and a maximum spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, with oil-chilling for thermal stability during sustained high-speed operation. X-axis travel is approximately 1,200 mm (47.2 inches), Y-axis travel approximately 600 mm (23.6 inches), and Z-axis travel approximately 800 mm (31.5 inches). A 32-tool or 36-tool arm-type ATC is standard, and the machine is controlled by a Fanuc 31i-MB CNC system with high-speed block processing and lookahead functions. Linear guideway construction on all axes enables rapid traverse rates consistent with the 15,000 RPM spindle's cycle-time expectations. Standard equipment includes flood coolant, through-spindle coolant option, chain-type chip conveyor, automatic lubrication, and full enclosure guarding. The VP3012 is well positioned for mold die finishing, aerospace component machining, and high-volume aluminum part production.
