How much does the Onsrud 146SW6 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 146SW6 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 Onsrud 146SW6 is the wide S-Series table: 147 in (3,734 mm) in X and 72 in (1,829 mm) in Y, the only model in the series wider than the 60 in (1,524 mm) of the 146S. It is a 3-axis fixed-bridge router with the series' 18 hp (13.4 kW), 24,000 rpm spindle.
The machine dimensions are the surprise. Onsrud lists it at 490 in (12,446 mm) long, far beyond the 309 in (7,849 mm) of the 146S, whose table is almost the same length. The maker's table does not explain the difference. It may reflect a longer table travel or attached handling equipment in the listed configuration, so get a layout drawing before assuming either.
Width is 164 in (4,166 mm) and height 99 in (2,515 mm). The table has 3 vacuum zones.
Six-foot-wide sheet is common in plastics, composites and some panel products, and that is the work this model is for. It carries 12 tools, has an 11 in (279 mm) Z-stroke as standard, and takes the usual S-Series upgrades: a 24 hp (17.9 kW) spindle, a second spindle, a second tool changer, and Z-strokes of 16 in (406 mm) or 28 in (711 mm).

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Onsrud does not define the suffix on its page. In the table, this is the S-Series model with a 72 in (1,829 mm) wide table, where the 146S table is 60 in (1,524 mm) wide.
02
The listed machine length is 490 in (12,446 mm), with a width of 164 in (4,166 mm) and a height of 99 in (2,515 mm). Because the table itself is 147 in (3,734 mm) long, ask Onsrud what the length figure includes.
03
An 18 hp (13.4 kW) spindle at up to 24,000 rpm, a 12-tool capacity and an 11 in (279 mm) Z-stroke. Larger capacity tool changers and a second tool changer are optional.
04
3 as standard, the same count as the 146S. On a table 72 in (1,829 mm) wide that makes each zone larger, so small-part work may call for a custom zone layout.
