How much does the Akira Seiki SR52 XP cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki SR52 XP 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
Long X on a narrow frame: the Akira Seiki SR52 XP gives 1,300 mm (51.2 in) of X travel with 540 mm (21.3 in) of Y and 560 mm (22 in) of Z. The table is 1,450 x 480 mm (57 x 19 in). It is the longest of the three SR machines built on the 540 mm Y casting.
That proportion suits extrusions, rails, bars and long weldments, or a line of identical fixtures run as one program. It does not suit wide plates. If the work needs depth as well as length, the SR55 XP has 640 mm (25 in) of Y on a 1,500 x 600 mm (59 x 23.6 in) table for only a little more X.
Spindle and tooling are common to the larger SR models: BT40, 11,000 rpm, 18 HP (13.4 kW) peak, 24T, 2.2 s tool change. Rapids are 30 / 30 / 25 m/min (1,181 / 1,181 / 984 ipm). On a 1,300 mm stroke that X rapid matters, because end-to-end moves between fixtures add up over a shift.
The table is rated 1,080 kg (2,381 lb) standard and 1,296 kg (2,857 lb) maximum. The coolant tank is larger than on the shorter models at 400 L (105.7 gal). Footprint: 3,870 x 2,240 mm (154 x 88 in). Supply: 30 kVA.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,300 mm (51.2 in) of X travel and a 1,450 x 480 mm (57 x 19 in) table
- Only 2,240 mm deep on the floor despite the long X
- 400 L (105.7 gal) coolant tank
- Shares the 18 HP (13.4 kW), 11,000 rpm BT40 spindle and 24T magazine of the SR42 XP
Limitations
- Y travel of 540 mm (21.3 in) is narrow for a 1,300 mm machine
- Maximum table load of 1,296 kg (2,857 lb) is below the 1,800 kg (3,968 lb) of the SR55 XP
- Machine width is 3,870 mm
- Rapids are 30 / 30 / 25 m/min (1,181 / 1,181 / 984 ipm), not the fastest in the family

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,300 mm (51.2 in) in X, 540 mm (21.3 in) in Y and 560 mm (22 in) in Z. Spindle nose to table distance is 75~635 mm (3-25 in) and the table measures 1,450 x 480 mm (57 x 19 in).
02
It depends on part depth. The SR55 XP has 640 mm (25 in) of Y, 660 mm (26 in) of Z and a 1,500 x 600 mm (59 x 23.6 in) table rated to 1,800 kg (3,968 lb) maximum. The SR52 XP is the shallower machine front to back, with the same spindle and magazine.
03
The coolant tank capacity is 400 L (105.7 gal). Chip disposal is by chip screw. Air pressure requirement is 0.5 MPa (72.5 psi) and the power requirement is 30 kVA.
04
Standard loading is 1,080 kg (2,381 lb) and maximum loading is 1,296 kg (2,857 lb). The table has five 18 mm T-slots at 80 mm pitch for clamping along its 1,450 mm length.
