How much does the Biesse Rover C 6.15 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc router in this class — not a quote from Biesse. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Biesse Rover C 6.15 is a long-bed router with a listed work area of up to 6,100 mm (240 in) in X, 1,550 mm (61 in) in Y and 200 mm (7.9 in) in Z, a 9.6 kW (12.9 HP) spindle and 24,000 RPM. It is absent from Biesse's current lineup, so what follows describes an older machine from the listed figures, which should be confirmed before purchase.
The proportions say what it is for. A bed of up to 6,100 mm (240 in) with only 200 mm (7.9 in) of Z is built for long, flat work: door and window members, long panels, or several ordinary panels loaded in a row. The Z figure matters more than usual here, because the axes row describes the machine as 5-axis with an optional C-axis rotation aggregate. A tilted or rotated tool reaches sideways as well as down, and in 200 mm (7.9 in) of height that leaves little clearance over a thick workpiece. The aggregate is listed as optional, so establish whether a given machine has it.
At 9.6 kW (12.9 HP) the spindle has about two-thirds of the 14.5 kW (19.4 HP) listed for the Rover B 7.23, at the same 24,000 RPM. The weights point the same way: 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) approximate here, against 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) approximate for the Rover B 7.23. This is the lighter machine of the two, suited to profiling and drilling more than to heavy sections.
The automatic tool changer holds up to 16 positions and rapid traverse is up to 70 m/min. The control row reads Biesse B_SOLID, with BiesseWorks programming and Sophia IoT named alongside it.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Up to 6,100 mm (240 in) of X for long members or several panels in a row
- Rapid traverse of up to 70 m/min along that bed
- Automatic tool changer with up to 16 positions
- Control row lists Biesse B_SOLID with BiesseWorks programming and Sophia IoT
- 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) approximate, under half the 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) approximate listed for the Rover B 7.23
Limitations
- Z is 200 mm (7.9 in), which restricts thick parts and any tilted-tool work
- Spindle power of 9.6 kW (12.9 HP) is below the 14.5 kW (19.4 HP) listed for the Rover B 7.23
- The C-axis rotation aggregate is listed as optional
- 16 positions is the most the tool changer is listed to hold

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed work area is up to 6,100 mm (240 in) in X, with 1,550 mm (61 in) in Y and 200 mm (7.9 in) in Z. X is stated as a maximum, so check the bed length of the machine on offer if the full 6,100 mm (240 in) is needed.
02
The axes row reads 5-axis, with an optional C-axis rotation aggregate. Because part of that capability is listed as an option, do not assume every machine has it. Also allow for the 200 mm (7.9 in) of Z, which limits how far a tilted tool can work over a thick part.
03
Both are listed at 24,000 RPM. The Rover C 6.15 has a 9.6 kW (12.9 HP) spindle and weighs 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) approximate. The Rover B 7.23 is listed at 14.5 kW (19.4 HP) and 12,000 kg (26,455 lb) approximate, so it is the heavier and more powerful machine.
04
The control row reads Biesse B_SOLID, with BiesseWorks programming and Sophia IoT in brackets. The listed figures give no further detail on the control hardware, so identify the control and software versions on the machine itself.
