How much does the Okuma MULTUS U1000 cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Okuma MULTUS U1000 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

The Okuma MULTUS U1000 is a multitasking mill-turn machine with a maximum turning diameter of Ø650 mm (Ø25.59 in), a JIS A2-6 spindle nose and a main spindle motor of 22 / 15 kW (29 / 20 hp) at the 20 min and continuous ratings.

Axis speed is the clearest difference from Okuma's MULTUS B machines. The MULTUS U1000 rapids at 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) in X and Z and 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) in Y, where the MULTUS B300II lists 40/26 m/min (1,575/1,024 ipm). On mill-turn work with many short positioning moves and tool changes, that gap shows up directly in cycle time.

Okuma's listed rows for this model are few. Chuck size, spindle speed, work length and tool capacity are not among them, and the rows that are listed match the MULTUS U2000 figure for figure: Ø650 mm (Ø25.59 in), JIS A2-6 and 22 / 15 kW (29 / 20 hp). Whatever separates the two models lies in the unlisted figures, so ask Okuma for the full specification sheet of each before choosing.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Rapid traverse of 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) in X and Z and 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) in Y
22 / 15 kW (29 / 20 hp) main spindle motor, 20 min / continuous
Maximum turning diameter of Ø650 mm (Ø25.59 in) on a JIS A2-6 spindle nose

Limitations

Spindle speed, chuck size, work length and tool capacity are not in the listed rows, so the machine cannot be sized to a part from this table alone
The JIS A2-6 nose is the only one listed, with no larger nose shown as an option; the MULTUS U3000 lists JIS A2-8 as an alternative

Best For

Mill-turn parts up to Ø650 mm (Ø25.59 in) in turning diameter Work with many short moves that benefit from 50 m/min rapids Chucked parts turned with up to 22 kW at the 20 min rating

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the rapid traverse rates of the MULTUS U1000?

50 m/min (1,969 ipm) in X, 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) in Y and 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) in Z. For comparison, the MULTUS B300II lists 40/26 m/min (1,575/1,024 ipm) for X,Z/Y.

02 How does the MULTUS U1000 differ from the MULTUS U2000?

Not in any listed row. Both show a Ø650 mm (Ø25.59 in) maximum turning diameter, a JIS A2-6 nose, 22 / 15 kW (29 / 20 hp) and the same rapids. The difference must be in figures Okuma's summary does not list, such as work length, so request both specification sheets.

03 What spindle does the MULTUS U1000 have?

The main spindle has a JIS A2-6 nose and a 22 / 15 kW (29 / 20 hp) motor rated at 20 min / continuous. The listed rows give no speed range or torque, so confirm those before planning cuts.
