Accuway U-18H

Q: How much does the Accuway U-18H cost?

The price estimate for the Accuway U-18H is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/accuway-u-18h#price; the request is passed to Accuway or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Accuway U-18H 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 Accuway U-18H is a small 5-axis machining center built around a 60,000 rpm direct-drive spindle. The figures describe a machine for very small tools and small parts: a Ø200 mm (Ø7.9 in) table, a maximum workpiece of Ø200 x 200 mm (Ø7.9 x 7.9 in), a 60 kg (132 lb) table load and a spindle motor of 1.2 kW (1.6 hp).

The table tilts and rotates. A-axis travel is listed as -30/+120 degrees at up to 40 rpm, and the C axis turns 360 degrees at up to 62.5 rpm. The load rating is the same 60 kg whether the table sits level or tilted upright.

Linear travels are printed in an unusual way. X is given as -5~+50 mm (-0.2~+2.0 in) and Y as -10~+150 mm (-0.4~+5.9 in), with Z at 300 mm (11.8 in). Those X and Y rows read as ranges about a datum, and they are far shorter than the table diameter would suggest, so ask Accuway to confirm the usable strokes before planning a part. The spindle nose sits 58~358 mm (2.3~14.1 in) from the table.

Rapid traverse is 48 m/min (1,890 in/min) on X, Y and Z, on 32/32/32 mm (1.3/1.3/1.3 in) ball screws with ball-type guideways. The spindle nose row reads φ6 with no taper named, and the table lists no tool magazine at all. The control is a FANUC 0i-M. Net weight is 3,500 kg (7,716 lb).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

60,000 rpm direct-drive spindle for very small cutters
Tilting and rotating table: A axis -30/+120 degrees, C axis 360 degrees
48 m/min (1,890 in/min) rapid traverse on all three linear axes
C axis turns at up to 62.5 rpm and the A axis at up to 40 rpm
Light for a 5-axis machine at 3,500 kg (7,716 lb)

Limitations

Spindle motor is 1.2 kW (1.6 hp), so cuts must be light
The spec table lists no automatic tool changer or magazine
X and Y travels are printed as -5~+50 mm and -10~+150 mm, which needs clarifying with the maker
Table load is 60 kg (132 lb) on a Ø200 mm table

Best For

Small precision parts machined with micro tools at up to 60,000 rpm 5-sided work on parts within Ø200 x 200 mm Light finishing where spindle speed matters more than power Workpieces of 60 kg or less, fixture included

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How fast is the Accuway U-18H spindle?

The spindle speed row reads 60,000 rpm and the drive system is Direct. Spindle motor power is 1.2 kW (1.6 hp). The spindle nose row prints φ6 without a unit or taper name, so confirm the tool interface with Accuway.
