The 2005 Awea BM-1600 is a 3-axis vertical machining center known for its robust capabilities and precision. It features a large table size of 78.7" x 31.5", supporting a load capacity of up to 4,400 lbs. The machine is driven by a Fanuc 18-iM control system, ensuring reliable operation. The BM-1600 offers substantial travel dimensions with 63" on the X-axis and 31.5" on both the Y and Z axes, making it suitable for handling larger workpieces.

Equipped with a CAT 50 spindle taper, the spindle motor provides a flexible speed range from 60 to 6,000 RPM, powered by a 25 HP, two-speed geared spindle motor. Tool handling is efficient with a 24-position side-mount automatic tool changer (ATC), allowing a swift tool change time of 7 seconds chip-to-chip. The machine is capable of rapid traverse rates of 787 IPM on the X and Y axes, and 393.7 IPM cutting feed rates, ensuring fast production cycles.

The Awea BM-1600 is designed with boxed ways for enhanced stability and durability. Additional features include a chip conveyor and RJH, optimizing the machining process by maintaining cleanliness and reducing downtime. With dimensions of 185" x 128" x 122" and a total weight of 35,000 lbs., this machine is a formidable addition to any heavy-duty manufacturing operation, providing high precision and reliability.The 2005 Awea BM-1600 is a reliable used CNC Vertical Machining Center, designed for efficiency and precision in industrial manufacturing tasks.
