How much does the FANUC ROBODRILL D14MiA5 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from FANUC. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The FANUC ROBODRILL D14MiA5 is a small BT30 machining center: 300 mm (11.8 in) of travel in both X and Y, 330 mm (13 in) in Z, and a 500 x 300 mm (19.7 x 11.8 in) table for workpieces up to 100 kg (220 lb). The spindle is rated 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous.
That power figure defines the work. A continuous rating of 3.7 kW (5 HP) describes a spindle for drilling, tapping and light milling with small tools, not for long roughing passes. Top speed is 10,000 RPM, and 24,000 RPM is listed as an option.
The table is 500 mm long against 300 mm of X travel, so its ends are room for clamps and vise bodies and not area the spindle can cut over. Lay fixtures out with the part inside the travel square.
The remaining listed figures are a turret-type ATC with 21 tools and a tool-to-tool time of 0.7 seconds, rapids of 54 m/min (2,126 IPM), positioning accuracy of ±0.004 mm (±0.00016 in) and repeatability of ±0.002 mm (±0.00008 in). The control is a Fanuc 31i-B5, and the machine weighs 2,700 kg (5,952 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Tool changes in 0.7 seconds tool-to-tool from a turret-type ATC holding 21 tools
- Rapids of 54 m/min (2,126 IPM) over short 300 mm (11.8 in) X and Y strokes
- Repeatability of ±0.002 mm (±0.00008 in)
- Light machine at 2,700 kg (5,952 lb)
Limitations
- Spindle power is 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous, which restricts milling to light cuts
- X and Y travel are 300 mm (11.8 in) each, less than the 500 mm length of the table
- Workpiece weight is limited to 100 kg (220 lb)
- 24,000 RPM is an option; the standard spindle runs to 10,000 RPM

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed rating is 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous on a BT30 taper, with a top speed of 10,000 RPM and 24,000 RPM as an option. That is enough for drilling, tapping and light milling with small tools.
02
Travels are 300 mm (11.8 in) in X, 300 mm (11.8 in) in Y and 330 mm (13 in) in Z. The table is 500 x 300 mm (19.7 x 11.8 in) and the listed maximum workpiece weight is 100 kg (220 lb). Z travel has to cover the fixture, the part and the tool length together.
03
The tool capacity row reads 21, in a turret-type ATC, and the tool change time is 0.7 seconds tool-to-tool. No chip-to-chip time, maximum tool diameter or tool weight is listed, so check those against the largest tool a job needs.
04
The Robodrill α-D14SiB Plus is listed with the same 500 x 300 mm (19.7 x 11.8 in) table and 100 kg (220 lb) load, 14 tools, and a Y travel of 300 mm (11.8 in) + 100 mm extension on the FANUC Series 31i-B Plus control. This model lists 300 mm (11.8 in) of Y, 21 tools and the Fanuc 31i-B5.
