Yama Seiki AWEA BM 850 (50) VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 41.3 inches in length by 23.6 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,870 lbs, making it ideal for heavy-duty machining applications. The vertical spindle is equipped with a BT#50 taper, with CAT 50 as an optional configuration, and delivers a maximum speed of 6,000 RPM, powered by a 20 HP (30-minute rating) motor for high-torque cutting performance. Tooling is managed by a 24-station automatic tool changer (ATC), expandable to 30 tools, with a tool change time of 7 seconds, ensuring efficient production cycles. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for enhanced versatility. Axis travels are 33.46 inches (X), 24.94 inches (Y), and 24.94 inches (Z), providing a generous working envelope. Maximum feed rates reach 394 inches per minute, while rapid traverse speeds are 943 inches per minute on all three axes, enabling fast positioning and reduced non-cutting time. The combination of high table capacity, powerful spindle, rapid tool changing, and swift axis movement makes this machining center well-suited for demanding production environments requiring precision, speed, and reliability in milling, drilling, and other CNC operations.
