2021 YCM DCV2018A5AX VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2021 YCM DCV2018A5AX is a 5-axis double-column vertical machining center produced by Yeong Chin Machinery Industries of Taiwan, combining the structural rigidity of a bridge-type double-column frame with full simultaneous 5-axis capability through a direct-drive universal head. The reinforced double-column structure with an internal double-A-type ribbed-bed design distributes cutting forces evenly through the base and column, minimizing deflection during heavy multi-axis cuts. The machine’s 78.8 x 59 inch working table accommodates large workpieces up to 8,800 lbs, making it suitable for aerospace structural parts, large automotive dies, energy sector components, and complex mold work. The HSK-A63 universal head spindle reaches 18,000 RPM driven by a 94 HP motor, covering the full range from heavy-duty roughing to high-speed finishing in a single setup. The 5-axis universal head is equipped with direct-drive motors with 0.001-degree angular resolution, enabling compound-angle machining, multi-face machining, special circular machining, and full contouring of curved surfaces. Linear axis rapid traverse rates reach 1,181 IPM. The Fanuc or Siemens CNC provides RTCP functions for simplified 5-axis programming. The DCV2018A5AX is YCM’s flagship 5-axis platform for manufacturers requiring large-format simultaneous 5-axis capability with double-column structural integrity.
