How much does the Anger Machining SP2-D cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Anger Machining SP2-D 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

Battery trays and large structural castings are the work the Anger Machining SP2-D is laid out for. It is a twin-spindle horizontal machining center with one large machining bridge, 3,400 mm long with an interference diameter of Ø1,200 mm, served by two independently controlled moving columns.

Both spindles travel 3,200 mm (126.0 in) in X, 915 mm (36.0 in) in Y and 630 mm (24.8 in) in Z. They can cut two identical parts in step or share one large part, which is where the cycle-time gain on a tray full of holes and pockets comes from.

Loading happens on the one bridge, by hand or by robot, as Anger puts it. That keeps the machine simple compared with the SP2-P, which has two bridges and a pallet changer with a 10 s changeover, but the spindles wait while the part is exchanged.

Spindle data is HSK63-A at 0-18,000 rpm with 30/50 kW and 50/80 Nm (S1/S6-30%); a 0-20,000 rpm alternative with 25/30 kW and 30/36 Nm appears in brackets. Two 29-position disc magazines are standard and tools may be 350 mm long. The table lists 4 axes with a fifth in brackets: an optional B-axis, a swivel axis, gives 5-sided machining in one setup, and Anger adds that six-sided machining is possible through the bridge.

Siemens control, minimum quantity lubrication and 110 kW of connected power complete the table.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Bridge of 3,400 mm with an interference diameter of Ø1,200 mm for large-volume parts
Two independent spindles for two parts or one large part
Optional B-axis for 5-sided machining in a single setup
Manual or robot loading on the same machine
Zero-point clamping in the standard bridge, interchangeable with SP and PP series machines
Rapids of 90/60/60 m/min with 0.002 mm repeatability as per VDI 3441 / VDI 2617

Limitations

One bridge only, so machining stops during loading; the SP2-P adds a second bridge
Spindle torque is 50/80 Nm in the standard version
Tool length is limited to 350 mm
Spindles cannot come closer than 860 mm in X

Best For

Battery trays up to 3,400 mm long Large aluminium structural components with a swing of up to Ø1,200 mm Pairs of identical parts machined synchronously Cells where manual loading must remain possible

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How big a part fits the SP2-D?

The maximum part size is 3,400/Ø1,200 mm: a length of 3,400 mm and an interference diameter of Ø1,200 mm on the machining bridge. The A-axis is rated for 3,000 kg. Anger describes the working envelope as over 3.4 m in the x-axis with a Ø1.2 m interference circle.

02 Is the SP2-D a 5-axis machine?

As standard it has 4 axes; the table prints 4 (5). The fifth is an optional B-axis, which Anger calls a swivel axis and which enables 5-sided machining in a single setup. Six-sided machining through the bridge is also described as possible in one setup.

03 How is the SP2-D loaded?

Manually or by robot. Anger describes the machine as highly versatile on this point. There is one machining bridge, so the part is exchanged on the bridge the spindles work on. The SP2-P is the version with two bridges and a pallet changer for loading during machining.

04 What spindles does the SP2-D have?

Two HSK63-A spindles on independent moving columns, a minimum of 860 mm apart in X. The standard rating is 0-18,000 rpm, 30/50 kW and 50/80 Nm (S1/S6-30%). The bracketed alternative is 0-20,000 rpm with 25/30 kW and 30/36 Nm.

05 How many tools can it hold?

Two disc magazines with 29 positions each are standard, written as 2 x 29 in the table, with 2x41 and 2x61 as the bracketed alternatives. Tool length is up to 350 mm, tool weight up to 8 kg and chip-to-chip time 4.5 s.
