Description and equipment
Double-column machining centre for large parts
The AWEA VP-2012 is a gantry (double-column) milling machine made in Taiwan for machining large, heavy parts: mould plates, machine beds, frames and machinery components.
Key strengths of the model
According to AWEA, the VP series works with a moving table under a fixed bridge and combines high-rigidity linear guideways on the X and Y axes with a Z axis on hardened and ground box ways, suited to demanding cutting conditions. The double-column structure maintains rigidity across the full width of the table. The BT50 taper allows large-diameter tools to be used, and the Fanuc 0i-MD control is a reliable CNC, widely used and with wide service availability.

Frequently asked questions
What workpiece size does the AWEA VP-2012 accept?
This unit has a 2,200 x 1,100 mm table that supports up to 3,500 kg, with travels of 2,000 mm in X, 1,200 mm in Y and 760 mm in Z. It is suited to mould plates, machine beds and wide parts that do not fit in a conventional column-type vertical machining centre.
What control and spindle does this gantry milling machine have?
It has a Fanuc 0i-MD control, a 6,000 rpm spindle with BT50 taper, an automatic tool changer, a swarf conveyor and through-tool coolant. This configuration is geared to roughing with large tools and deep-hole drilling in steel and cast iron.
What is the advantage of a gantry milling machine over a column-type vertical machining centre?
On a gantry machine the head travels on a bridge supported by two columns, so rigidity is similar across the full width of the table. This allows wide, heavy parts to be machined with good accuracy, whereas on a column-type centre rigidity decreases as you move away from the column.
