How much does the Anderson SELEXX Series cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc router in this class — not a quote from Anderson. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Anderson SELEXX Series is a CNC router line built around speed: Anderson America lists rapid traverse of 80 meters/min (3,149”/min) in X and 60 meters/min (2,362”/min) in Y, with a maximum rapid traverse of 100 meters/min (3,937”/min). The spindle is offered at 12 HP or 18 HP, runs to 22,000 rpm and takes HSK-63 tooling.
Z is the short, slow axis. Travel is 250 mm (9.84”) and the Z rapid is 20 meters/min (787”/min), a quarter of the X figure. That combination suits flat panel work, where the machine spends its time crossing a sheet and the tool only lifts clear between cuts. Fast X and Y rapids pay off most on parts with many short cuts and long moves between them.
Alongside the router spindle, the series lists a boring block in 5+5 or 10+7 form and a tool capacity of 8 / 10. The table does not say which spindle power or boring block goes with which tool capacity, so settle that pairing in the quotation. Vacuum pumps of 10, 25 or 40 HP are listed, and the choice should follow the sheet size and how small the nested parts are.
The control is FANUC 0i. Six items are optional: reverse air flow, a bar code reader, a C axis, an offload pusher/sweeper, automatic loading and CNC label placement. Together they turn a stand-alone router into a cell that loads, labels and unloads itself, so compare quotations line by line for which of them are included. The series table gives no X or Y travel, so table size has to come from the specific model quoted.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Rapid traverse of 80 meters/min (3,149”/min) in X and 60 meters/min (2,362”/min) in Y, with a listed maximum of 100 meters/min (3,937”/min)
- Spindle offered at 12 HP or 18 HP, running to 22,000 rpm on HSK-63
- Boring block listed in 5+5 or 10+7 form, for drilling hole patterns without a tool change
- Vacuum pump choice of 10, 25 or 40 HP to match sheet size and part size
- Automatic loading, an offload pusher/sweeper and CNC label placement can be ordered for cell operation
Limitations
- Z travel is 250 mm (9.84”) and Z rapid 20 meters/min (787”/min), so this is a flat-panel machine and not one for deep parts
- The C axis, bar code reader, reverse air flow, automatic loading, offload pusher/sweeper and CNC label placement are all optional
- Tool capacity is 8 / 10, a small magazine for jobs that mix many profile cutters
- The series table lists no X or Y travel, table size or machine weight

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Anderson America lists rapid traverse of 80 meters/min (3,149”/min) in X, 60 meters/min (2,362”/min) in Y and 20 meters/min (787”/min) in Z, with a maximum rapid traverse of 100 meters/min (3,937”/min). These are rapid rates between cuts. The table gives no cutting feed figure.
02
The spindle is listed at 12 HP / 18 HP, so there are two power levels. Maximum speed is 22,000 rpm and the taper is HSK-63. Tool capacity is listed as 8 / 10. The Stratos Series, by comparison, is listed with a 24000 rpm spindle on HSK 63.
03
Six rows are marked optional: reverse air flow, bar code reader, C axis, offload pusher/sweeper, automatic loading and CNC label placement. None should be assumed in a base quotation. The boring block (5+5 or 10+7), the vacuum pump (10/25/40 HP) and the spindle (12 HP / 18 HP) are listed as choices, so each of those has to be specified too.
04
The control is listed as FANUC 0i. The table names no programming or nesting software, so ask what is supplied with the machine, particularly if the bar code reader or CNC label placement options are being ordered, since both depend on data from the office system.
