2012 YCM XV1020A VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2012 YCM XV1020A is a 3-axis vertical machining center produced by Yeong Chin Machinery Industries of Taiwan, one of the most prolific and enduring VMC models in the North American market throughout the 2000s and early 2010s. The XV1020A delivers X/Y/Z travels of 40.2 x 20.1 x 22.8 inches over a 43.3 x 20.1 inch working table, providing a proven mid-size work envelope for the full range of production milling, drilling, boring, and tapping operations. The CAT-40 spindle operates at 10,000 RPM with 15 HP continuous power, paired with a Fanuc MXP or equivalent control offering rigid tapping, helical interpolation, DNC file transfer via RS-232 and Ethernet, and a familiar G-code programming interface. Cast iron Meehanite construction throughout the base, column, and saddle provides the damping and thermal mass for consistent dimensional accuracy in production environments. An automatic tool changer, typically 24 stations, supports complex multi-feature programs in a single setup. Fully enclosed guarding with integrated coolant and chip management maintains a clean and efficient production floor environment. At approximately 13,200 lbs machine weight, the XV1020A offers solid structural mass for the mid-size VMC class. The machine’s combination of reliability, standard Fanuc control, and competitive Taiwanese build quality established it as a benchmark mid-market VMC that competed effectively against Japanese, European, and American alternatives throughout its production run.
