How much does the Akira Seiki RMV700APC cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki RMV700APC 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
Where the RMV500APC is a 30-taper machine, the Akira Seiki RMV700APC moves the same production concept up to BT40. Travels are 700 mm (27.56 in) in X and 400 mm (15.75 in) in both Y and Z, and the 700 x 400 mm (27.56 x 15.75 in) table carries 160 kg (352.74 lb).
The bigger taper changes the tooling envelope. Tools can be 75 mm (2.95 in) in diameter, 200 mm (7.87 in) long and 4.5 kg (9.92 lb), and the servo magazine holds 24T+1 as standard with 40T+1 as an option. The trade is a slower change, T-T 1.9 s and C-C 3.4 s.
Axis speeds stay high. Rapid feed is 48 / 60 / 72 m/min (1,889 / 2,362 / 2,834 ipm), so Z is half as fast again as X. Spindle power is given as 12 HP (8.9 kW), with 15 HP (11.2 kW) for acceleration. On this model's own page the speed row reads 15,000 rpm, marked as an option; HSK63 is the optional taper.
Akira Seiki's wording for the series is light chips, non-ferrous metal and composite material. Even with BT40, the 160 kg table and 12 HP spindle keep it in that territory. Weight is 5,600 kg (12345.88 lb), floor space 1,900 x 3,144 mm (74.8 x 123.78 in), and the supply needed is 25 kVA.
