2020 YCM NFX380A 5AX VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2020 YCM NFX380A 5AX is a 5-axis vertical machining center produced by Yeong Chin Machinery Industries of Taiwan, representing the next-generation evolution of the FX380A platform with enhanced structural rigidity, improved dynamics, and updated control technology. The machine provides X/Y/Z linear travels of 27.6 x 20.5 x 19.9 inches combined with a 14.96 inch (380 mm) direct-drive integrated rotary table for 4+1 indexed or simultaneous 5-axis contouring. The 12,000 RPM BBT40 spindle is powered by a 22 kW (approximately 30 HP) motor, delivering high power density for aerospace alloys, hardened steels, and medical-grade titanium machining. Rapid traverse rates reach 1,417 IPM on X and Y axes, enabling swift repositioning between features on complex 5-axis programs. A 30-station automatic tool changer provides tool capacity for demanding multi-step 5-axis programs without manual interruption. The Fanuc control with full 5-axis RTCP compensation simplifies CAM post-processor integration and ensures accurate tool path execution across all rotary positions. YCM’s isolated direct-drive (IDD) spindle design uses ceramic bearings for low heat generation, reduced vibration, and extended bearing life under continuous high-speed operation. The NFX380A 5AX is suited to aerospace subcontractors, medical device manufacturers, and precision job shops requiring compact, reliable simultaneous 5-axis machining capability.
