Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki RMV160RT 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 Akira Seiki RMV160RT is a very small multi-face machining center. A ∅160 mm (∅6.3 in) rotary table rotates 360° on C and swings on B through +30 / -120, so a part can be reached from every side but its base in one clamping. Maximum loading is 20 kg (44.09 lb).
Linear travels are 380 mm (14.96 in) in X, 160 mm (6.3 in) in Y and 380 mm (14.96 in) in Z. The short Y is deliberate. With a tilting table doing the work of presenting faces to the spindle, the machine needs reach in X and Z to clear the trunnion and little else.
It belongs to the maker's production machining center family, described as being for light chips, non-ferrous metal and composite material. The spindle and changer are those of a fast 30-taper production machine: BT30 with HSK40A as an option, a servo 24T+1 magazine, and a tool change of 0.7 s tool to tool and 1.9 s chip to chip. Rapids are 60 / 60 / 72 m/min (2,362 / 2,362 / 2,834 ipm).
Spindle power is listed as 6 HP (4.5 kW), with 20 HP (14.9 kW) for acceleration, and the speed row shows 24,000 rpm as an option. The machine weighs 4,100 kg (9,039 lb), measures 1,600 x 2,322 mm (62.99 x 91.42 in) and needs 10 kVA.
