Est.$140,000 - $185,000 (new)

This is our best estimate for a machine of this type and class, built from published prices of comparable vertical machining centers (vmc) and typical dealer pricing. Brother Industries has not published a list price for the Brother Speedio R650Xd1 that we can cite. Treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

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

The Brother Speedio R650Xd1 is a 30-taper machining center with a rotating pallet table: 650 × 400 mm (25.6 × 15.7 in) of X and Y, 305 mm (12.0 in) of Z or 435 mm (17.1 in) as an option, faces of 800 x 400 (31.5 x 15.7) that index in 3.1 sec, and magazines from 14 up to 40 tools under the CNC-D00 control.

The point of the machine is that loading never stops the spindle for long. While one face is in the enclosure being cut, the operator fixtures the next part on the face outside, and the swap costs only the 3.1 sec index. Pallet change repeatability is 0.005 mm (0.0002 in). The table turns on a 0.82kW AC servo motor through a worm gear with a total reduction of 1/60. Each face takes 200 kg (441 lb); the row also prints 300 kg (661 lb) in brackets without saying when that applies.

Whatever goes on a face must clear the swing. The maximum turning diameter is Ø1,250 mm (49.2 in), with Ø1,300 mm (51.2 in) in brackets, and jigs may be up to 350 mm (13.8 in) tall. On the longer 800 mm face, a fixture that runs the full length and stands tall at the ends is the case to check against that circle.

The magazine choice runs to four sizes. With 14 tools the changer takes 0.6 sec tool to tool and 1.4 sec chip to chip; with 22 or 28 tools, 0.8 and 1.5 sec. A 40-tool double-arm changer is also listed, and the rows list 2.5 sec chip to chip in its position, with tool to tool shown as 0.9. That slower change is the price of carrying every tool for several part numbers. Tools may be 200 mm (7.9 in) long and 80 mm (3.1 in) across. The spindle runs 10,000 rpm as standard and 16,000 rpm as an option, rated 10.1 kW for 10 min and 7.0 kW continuous.

The machine weighs 3,550 kg (7,826 lb), covers 1,830 x 3,029 mm (72.0 x 119.3 in) and is 2,704 mm (106.5 in) tall. It needs AC 200 to 230 V three-phase and air at 0.4 - 0.6 MPa, listed as 45 / 100 L/min.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How does the Speedio R650Xd1 compare with the Speedio R450Xd1?

The Speedio R450Xd1 has 450 × 320 × 305 mm (17.7 × 12.6 × 12.0 in) of travel, 600 x 300 faces for 120 kg (265 lb), a 2.7 sec index, a Ø1,020 mm (40.2 in) swing and a 300 mm (11.8 in) jig height. The R650Xd1 has 650 × 400 mm (25.6 × 15.7 in) of XY, 800 x 400 faces for 200 kg (441 lb), a 3.1 sec index, a Ø1,250 mm (49.2 in) swing, a 350 mm (13.8 in) jig height and options for a 435 mm (17.1 in) Z and 40 tools.

02 What do the Z options on the R650Xd1 offer?

Standard Z is 305 mm (12.0 in), with spindle nose to table of 250 - 555 mm (9.8 - 21.8 in). The 435 mm (17.1 in) option extends that range to 250 - 685 mm (9.8 - 27.0 in), useful with tall fixtures up to the 350 mm (13.8 in) jig height limit.

03 How large can fixtures be on the R650Xd1 pallet?

Each face is 800 x 400 (31.5 x 15.7) and carries 200 kg (441 lb). Fixtures must stay within a Ø1,250 mm (49.2 in) turning diameter and 350 mm (13.8 in) of jig height. Bracketed figures of 300 kg (661 lb) and Ø1,300 mm (51.2 in) are also printed with no condition stated.

04 What tool-change times does the R650Xd1 list?

0.6 sec tool to tool and 1.4 sec chip to chip with 14 tools; 0.8 and 1.5 sec with 22 or 28 tools. For the 40-tool double-arm changer the rows give 2.5 sec chip to chip and a tool-to-tool figure of 0.9. Add the 3.1 sec pallet index to estimate the time between finished parts.
