Yama Seiki AWEA AF-1060 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a 47.240" x 23.600" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,440 lbs, suitable for heavy-duty machining tasks. The machine incorporates a vertical spindle with a BT#40 taper, delivering up to 8,000 RPM driven by a 15 HP motor rated for 30-minute operation at 40% duty cycle, ensuring robust power for various milling operations. It uses an automatic tool changer (ATC) equipped with 24 tools, enhancing productivity by reducing manual tool changes. The machine supports three-axis simultaneous CNC control (X, Y, Z) with travels of 41.730" (X), 23.600" (Y), and 23.600" (Z). Rapid traverse speeds reach 1,886 inches per minute (ipm) on all axes, paired with maximum feed rates of 393 ipm, enabling efficient material removal and short cycle times. Linear guideways and precision ball screws optimize positioning accuracy and repeatability, essential for high-precision machining. Ideal for milling, drilling, tapping, and boring tasks, this machine balances rigidity and speed, offering a stable platform for machining large and heavy workpieces with tight tolerances. The BT40 spindle taper and 24-pocket ATC support a range of tooling options for diverse applications. Its combination of moderate spindle speed, substantial horsepower, and wide travel envelope make it suitable for mold-making and mechanical manufacturing requiring both rough and finishing operations.
