How much does the Onsrud 244E 5-Axis cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 244E 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
The Onsrud 244E 5-Axis is the biggest machine in the E-Series 5-Axis table. Its table is 120 in (3,048 mm) deep in every column, and in W10 it is 120 in (3,048 mm) wide too. Like the rest of the range it starts with an 18 hp (13.4 kW), 24,000 rpm spindle and a 28 in (711 mm) Z-stroke.
Ten feet of depth under a 5-axis head is tooling territory: large patterns, layup moulds, boat plugs and structural composite parts. For that kind of work the 52 in (1,321 mm) Z-stroke upgrade and the 33 hp (24.6 kW) spindle are likely to be on the order from the start.
The bridge is long, and the machine is 415 in (10,541 mm) wide. Length is 150 in (3,810 mm) for W5, 162 in (4,115 mm) for W6, 213 in (5,411 mm) for W8 and 263 in (6,681 mm) for W10. Height is 165 in (4,191 mm) with the standard stroke and 189 in (4,801 mm) with 40 in (1,016 mm).
Zones are 4 for W5 and W6 and 4-8 for W8 and W10. A floating duct dust collection system is one of the options Onsrud names, and on a machine this wide it keeps hoses off the part. Up to 2 spindles, 24 tools and a second tool changer can be added.
