Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki SV1300 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, narrow and fast describes the Akira Seiki SV1300. It has 1,300 mm (51.2 in) of X travel on the 540 mm (21.3 in) Y frame, with 560 mm (22 in) of Z and a 1,450 x 480 mm (57 x 19 in) table.
Because it stays on the lighter saddle, the SV1300 keeps the high rapid feed of the smaller SV machines: 48 / 48 / 36 m/min (1,890 / 1,890 / 1,417 ipm). The SV1350, which is only slightly longer but uses the wide saddle, is listed at 36 / 36 / 30 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 1,181 ipm). On a 1,300 mm stroke a fast X axis saves real time between fixtures.
Spindle data are the SV standard: BT40, 15,000 rpm, 42 HP (31.3 kW) peak, oil chilling. The magazine is 36T with a 1.9 s change. This is a good fit for aluminium extrusions, rails and window or frame profiles, where the cuts are light, the tools are small and the part is long.
The table carries 1,080 kg (2,381 lb) standard and 1,296 kg (2,857 lb) maximum. Weight is 7,678 kg (16,927 lb), dimensions are 4,200 x 2,240 mm (169 x 88 in), the coolant tank is 400 L (105.7 gal), and the supply is 35 kVA. Chips leave on a chain type conveyor.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X 1,300 mm (51.2 in), Y 540 mm (21.3 in), Z 560 mm (22 in), with a 1,450 x 480 mm (57 x 19 in) table carrying five 18 mm T-slots at 80 mm pitch.
02
For axis speed and a shallower footprint. The SV1350 adds Y and Z, at 640 mm (25 in) and 660 mm (26 in), but rapids fall to 36 / 36 / 30 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 1,181 ipm) and weight rises to 8,665 kg (19,103 lb).
03
7,678 kg (16,927 lb), with listed dimensions of 4,200 x 2,240 mm (169 x 88 in). The power requirement is 35 kVA and the air requirement 0.5 MPa (72.5 psi).
