Yama Seiki AWEA BM 1800 (40) VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust 78.7" x 31.5" work table capable of supporting workpieces up to 4,840 lbs, making it suitable for large-scale production and heavy-duty applications. The machine is equipped with a BT#40 spindle taper operating at a maximum of 10,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 12,000 RPM, delivering 15 horsepower at 30-minute continuous rating. The automatic tool changer accommodates 20 tools with rapid tool change times of 1.5 seconds, enabling efficient production workflows and minimizing downtime between operations. The three-axis configuration provides substantial travel capabilities: 70.87" on the X-axis, 31.5" on both the Y and Z axes, with synchronized maximum feed rates of 314 ipm and rapid traverse rates reaching 787 ipm across all axes. This combination of travel dimensions and feed rates ensures high-productivity machining for complex components in aerospace, automotive, and die-and-mold industries. An optional fourth axis is available for enhanced flexibility in multidirectional machining operations. The machine's generous work envelope, combined with its powerful spindle and fast tool-changing capability, positions it as an ideal solution for high-volume precision manufacturing requiring both accuracy and speed.
