How much does the Akira Seiki V6XP cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Akira Seiki V6XP 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
With the V6XP the Akira Seiki V series changes scale. X travel is 1,630 mm (64.2 in), Y is 850 mm (33.5 in) and Z is 815 mm (32 in); the table is 1,750 x 800 mm (69 x 31.5 in) and is rated for 2,300 kg (5,071 lb) as standard and 2,760 kg (6,085 lb) at most.
The spindle, though, stays in the 40-taper class. It is BT40 with 30 HP (22.4 kW) peak at 10,000 rpm in the V version or 35 HP (26.1 kW) at 12,000 rpm in the XP version, and an 8,000 rpm option. That combination, a big envelope with a fast light spindle, fits large aluminium plates, composite tooling and finish passes on big moulds. Shops that need to rough large steel parts should compare the HV6A, which has the same travels and a BT50 / CAT50 spindle at 42 HP (31.3 kW).
The listed accuracy loosens a little with size: positioning 0.015 mm (0.00059 in), repeatability ±0.005 mm (±0.00020 in). The spindle nose sits 100~915 mm (4~36 in) above the table, and the spindle centre is 865 mm (34 in) from the column cover.
A 28T magazine, 640 L (169 gal) of coolant and a 30 kVA supply complete the picture. T-slots are 18 mm wide at 125 mm pitch, six of them.
