How much does the Onsrud 240GW8 5-Axis cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 240GW8 5-Axis 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
Twenty feet by eight under a 5-axis head: the Onsrud 240GW8 5-Axis has a table of 240 in (6,096 mm) by 96 in (2,439 mm) and a 16 in (406 mm) Z-stroke. It is listed in the 16 in block of Onsrud's table only.
Of the wide 5-axis tables this is the one closest to a production sheet machine. It stays low, at 103 in (2,617 mm), and its 5 vacuum zones divide the bed into sections of about four feet. Large flat parts can be nested, cut out and then edge-finished at an angle without leaving the table.
It also suits vehicle work. Floor panels, side walls and roof sections for vans, trailers and recreational vehicles are wide, long and thin, and many need cut-outs with bevelled or rebated edges. An eight-foot table takes them flat.
The machine is 335 in (8,509 mm) long and 172 in (4,369 mm) wide. If 18 in of stroke is needed, Onsrud lists the 228GW8 5-Axis with a foot less table, 228 in (5,792 mm). Both carry the 18 hp (13.4 kW), 24,000 rpm spindle and 12 tools, and both run from a FANUC interface or Onsrud's touchscreen.
