Yama Seiki AWEA AF-1400 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 59.1 inches in length by 31.5 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 2,640 lbs. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing a CAT#40 taper, delivering a maximum speed of 8,000 RPM and a 30-minute power rating of 20 HP, ensuring high performance for demanding milling operations. An automatic tool changer (ATC) with a 24-tool capacity streamlines production by minimizing downtime during tool changes. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), each offering a travel distance of 55.1 inches (X), 31.5 inches (Y), and 31.5 inches (Z), providing a generous working envelope for a wide range of part sizes. Maximum feed rates for all axes are 394 inches per minute, while rapid traverse speeds reach 1,179 inches per minute, enabling fast and efficient machining cycles. The system does not include a U axis or pallet changer, but a rotary table can be added as an optional support for increased versatility. This configuration is ideal for precision milling, drilling, tapping, and contouring applications in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and mold making, where reliability, rigidity, and accuracy are paramount.
