How much does the Accuway UM-160S cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Accuway UM-160S 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 UM-160S breaks the pattern of the BT40 range in one direction: height. Z travel is 850 mm (33.5 in) and the spindle nose reaches 1,000 mm (39.4 in) above the table, from a minimum of 150 mm. The UM-120, the next tallest BT40 model in the line, lists 600 mm (23.6 in) of Z. X is 1,600 mm (63.0 in) and Y is 850 mm (33.5 in).
Everything structural is scaled to match. Ball screws are 50/50/50 mm (2.0/2.0/2.0 in), the largest in the group. The table is 1,700 x 950 mm (66.9 x 37.4 in) with 9 T-slots and a 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) rating, and the machine weighs 14,000 kg (30,864 lb), against 9,500 kg (20,944 lb) for the UM-150.
The spindle, though, is the familiar one. It is BT40, 10,000 rpm with 12,000 rpm in brackets, Belt (Direct), and 15/18.5 kW (20.1/24.8 hp) continuous and 30 min. A tall Z with a 40-taper means long tool overhang is likely, and the 300 mm (11.8 in) tool length and 7 kg (15 lb) weight limits apply as on the small machines. Deep cavities are reached by moving the head, not by long tools.
Roller guideways and 4/4/7 kW feed motors move the axes at 30 m/min (1,181 in/min). Control is a FANUC 0i-M with AICC II. Accuway also lists a UM-160 in its BT-50 group for those who need the heavier taper.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,600 mm (63.0 in) in X, 850 mm (33.5 in) in Y and 850 mm (33.5 in) in Z. The distance from spindle nose to table is 150~1,000 mm (5.9~39.4 in). The table is 1,700 x 950 mm (66.9 x 37.4 in).
02
2,000 kg (4,409 lb). The T-slot row reads 9 x 18 x 100 mm, so there are nine 18 mm slots at a 100 mm pitch across the 950 mm width for clamping large or multiple workpieces.
03
For Z and load. The UM-150 lists 550 mm (21.7 in) of Z and 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on a 1,600 x 770 mm table. The UM-160S lists 850 mm of Z, 2,000 kg and a 1,700 x 950 mm table, with larger 50 mm ball screws. Spindle and motor are the same.
04
A BT40 spindle at 10,000 rpm, with 12,000 rpm in brackets, driven by a 15/18.5 kW (20.1/24.8 hp) motor. The arm type changer is listed at 24, with 30/32 bracketed; tools can be 75 mm (3.0 in) in diameter, or 150 mm (5.9 in) without adjacent tools.
