How much does the Akira Seiki SV2600 cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki SV2600 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.

Akira Seiki SV2600 — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the Akira Seiki SV2600 that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from Akira Seiki or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

Largest of the SV line, the Akira Seiki SV2600 has 2,600 mm (102.3 in) of X travel and 1,030 mm (40.6 in) of Y, with 815 mm (32 in) of Z. The table measures 2,750 x 950 mm (108.2 x 37.4 in) and is rated 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) standard, 3,600 kg (7,937 lb) maximum.

Everything about the frame is scaled up. The machine weighs 18,165 kg (40,047 lb) and takes 7,050 x 3,950 mm (278 x 156 in) of floor space. The spindle centre is 1,050 mm (41.3 in) from the column cover, and the coolant tank holds 900 L (237.8 gal).

The axes are the slowest in the series, at 30 / 30 / 25 m/min (1,181 / 1,181 / 984 ipm) rapid. That is expected for the mass being moved. The spindle keeps the series figures of 15,000 rpm and 42 HP (31.3 kW) peak on a BT40 taper, with oil chilling, and the 36T magazine still changes in 1.9 s.

A machine like this is bought for very large light-alloy parts, big mould and pattern work, or to fixture many smaller jobs across the table and run them lights-out. Before ordering, check the 7 kg (15.4 lb) tool limit against the tooling plan. The supply required is 35 kVA with 0.5 MPa (72.5 psi) air.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the SV2600 travels?

2,600 mm (102.3 in) in X, 1,030 mm (40.6 in) in Y and 815 mm (32 in) in Z. The table is 2,750 x 950 mm (108.2 x 37.4 in) with seven 18 mm T-slots at 125 mm pitch.

02 How heavy is the SV2600 and how much space does it take?

It weighs 18,165 kg (40,047 lb), and the maker lists a floor space of 7,050 x 3,950 mm (278 x 156 in). Power requirement is 35 kVA.

03 Is the SV2600 slower than the other SV machines?

In rapid feed, yes: 30 / 30 / 25 m/min (1,181 / 1,181 / 984 ipm), where the SV2060 is listed at 36 / 36 / 30 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 1,181 ipm). Spindle speed, cutting feed and tool change time are the same as on the SV2060.

04 What tools can the SV2600 magazine hold?

36T, each up to 65 mm (2.6 in) in diameter, 130 mm (5.1 in) with empty neighbours, 350 mm (13.8 in) long and 7 kg (15.4 lb). Tool change time is 1.9 s.
