How much does the Onsrud 144GW8 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 144GW8 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
Width is the reason to look at the Onsrud 144GW8. Its table is 96 in (2,439 mm) in Y, eight feet, where the standard G-Series tables stop at five, and 144 in (3,658 mm) in X. It is the shortest of the wide G-Series models.
An eight-foot table changes how sheets are loaded. A four-by-eight sheet can lie crosswise, so three of them sit side by side along the twelve-foot length, and each can have one of the 3 standard vacuum zones. Oversize panels up to eight feet wide lie flat with no overhang. Compare the 145G, which is one inch longer in table X at 145 in (3,683 mm) but only 61 in (1,550 mm) in Y.
The wider bridge shows in the frame. Machine width is 172 in (4,369 mm). Length matches the narrow machine of the same class: 239 in (6,071 mm) with the 11 in (279 mm) Z-stroke, 235 in (5,969 mm) with the 18 in (457 mm) stroke. Height is 103 in (2,617 mm) and 140 in (3,556 mm).
Spindle and tooling follow the series: 18 hp (13.4 kW), 24,000 rpm, 12 tools. Because the bridge is long, extra spindles have room to work side by side across the table, and the series allows up to 4. For a 28 in (711 mm) or 40 in stroke on a wide table of this class, the code is 120GW8.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 96 in (2,439 mm) of table Y for eight-foot-wide material
- Shortest wide G-Series machine at 239 in (6,071 mm)
- 3 vacuum zones, one per crosswise four-by-eight sheet
- Bridge wide enough for several spindles side by side
Limitations
- Machine width of 172 in (4,369 mm)
- Table X of 144 in (3,658 mm) limits length to twelve feet
- Taller strokes shorten the table: the 120GW8 lists 120 in (3,048 mm)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It marks the wide G-Series table of the eight-foot class. Onsrud's table gives 96 in (2,439 mm) in Y for this model, against 61 in (1,550 mm) on the standard-width 145G, and 144 in (3,658 mm) in X.
02
172 in (4,369 mm). The length is 239 in (6,071 mm) with the 11 in Z-stroke or 235 in (5,969 mm) with the 18 in Z-stroke, and the height 103 in (2,617 mm) or 140 in (3,556 mm).
03
11 in (279 mm) and 18 in (457 mm). Onsrud states that the 40 in stroke is available on the Wide G-Series, but the table lists it under the 120GW8 code, whose table X is 120 in (3,048 mm).
04
The standard spindle is 18 hp (13.4 kW) at 24,000 rpm. A 24 hp (17.9 kW) spindle is the listed power upgrade, and up to 4 spindles can be fitted for simultaneous machining across the table.
