How much does the AccuteX AU-860iA cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AccuteX AU-860iA that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The AccuteX AU-860iA is where the AU series changes character. Below it, the heaviest workpiece AccuteX lists is 1,300 kg (2,866 lb) on the AU-96iA. This machine is rated for 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), on travels of 800 mm (31.5 in) by 600 mm (23.6 in). AccuteX heads the series as a large wire cut EDM with a moving column design, and the series text adds an auto sliding front door to save floor space.
Everything about the wire side is scaled up with the table. U and V travel is 150 x 150 mm (5.9 x 5.9 in) and the maximum cutting taper ±30° / H100, where the AU-96iA is limited to ±21° H=100. The standard Z stroke is 400 mm (15.7 in), with Z600 marked as an option, and the workpiece envelope of 1,330 x 990 x 395 mm (52.4 x 39.0 x 15.6 in) carries an H595 option to match. AccuteX lists the maximum cutting height as 394 mm (15.5 in), followed in brackets by 605 mm (23.8 in).
The two column heights are different installations. With Z400 the footprint is 3,950 x 3,800 x 2,740 mm (155.5 x 149.6 x 107.9 in) and water is held in a main tank of 2,420 L. With Z600 it becomes 4,300 x 3,550 x 2,940 mm (169.3 x 139.8 x 115.7 in), and the water is split between a main tank and a sub tank of 1,630 and 1,280 L.
Machine weight is 7,800 kg (17,196 lb), with a second figure of 8,500 kg (18,739 lb) printed in brackets. AccuteX does not label the bracketed weight, so confirm which configuration it refers to. The spool is 16 kg (35 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Workpiece rating of 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) on 800 mm (31.5 in) by 600 mm (23.6 in) of travel
- 400 mm (15.7 in) Z stroke with a Z600 option for taller work
- 150 x 150 mm (5.9 x 5.9 in) of U and V travel and taper to ±30° / H100
- Moving column design with an auto sliding front door, as AccuteX describes the series
- 16 kg (35 lb) wire spool and a main tank of 2,420 L in the Z400 version
Limitations
- Footprint of 3,950 x 3,800 x 2,740 mm (155.5 x 149.6 x 107.9 in) in the Z400 version, larger again with Z600
- The Z600 version needs a main and a sub tank of 1,630 and 1,280 L
- AccuteX prints second figures in brackets for cutting height and machine weight without labelling them
- At 7,800 kg (17,196 lb) plus a workpiece of up to 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), foundation planning is required

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X is 800 mm (31.5 in) and Y is 600 mm (23.6 in). The standard Z stroke is 400 mm (15.7 in), and AccuteX marks Z600 as an option. U and V travel 150 x 150 mm (5.9 x 5.9 in). The maximum workpiece is 1,330 x 990 x 395 mm (52.4 x 39.0 x 15.6 in), with an H595 option, at up to 5,000 kg (11,023 lb).
02
The footprint changes from 3,950 x 3,800 x 2,740 mm (155.5 x 149.6 x 107.9 in) to 4,300 x 3,550 x 2,940 mm (169.3 x 139.8 x 115.7 in), and the water system changes from a single main tank of 2,420 L to a main tank plus a sub tank of 1,630 and 1,280 L.
03
AccuteX lists the machine weight as 7,800 kg (17,196 lb) and prints 8,500 kg (18,739 lb) in brackets beside it. The page does not say what the bracketed figure applies to. Ask AccuteX to confirm the weight of the configuration you are ordering before the foundation is designed.
04
The AU-1000iA is the longer machine, with 1,100 mm (43.3 in) by 650 mm (25.6 in) of travel and a base weight of 8,100 kg (17,857 lb). Workpiece rating, U and V travel, taper, Z stroke and tank sizes are the same on both. The AU-860iA suits shops whose parts fit within 800 mm (31.5 in) of X.
