How much does the Onsrud 396G 5-Axis cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 396G 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
Thirty-three feet of table, five feet wide, with a 28 in (711 mm) Z-stroke: the Onsrud 396G 5-Axis is the longest narrow machine in the deep-stroke part of Onsrud's G-Series 5-Axis table. The table is listed at 396 in (10,059 mm) by 61 in (1,550 mm), with 9 vacuum zones.
There is a gap below it. The next size down, the 300G 5-Axis, has a table of 300 in (7,620 mm), so the 396G 5-Axis adds eight feet in one step. It is aimed at the longest single parts: full-length boat stringers and keels, spar tools, long structural members for vehicles and rail. A part of thirty feet is clamped once and contoured from end to end.
The frame is 515 in (13,081 mm) long, 142 in (3,607 mm) wide and 155 in (3,937 mm) high. That is a narrow machine for its length, and it can stand close to a wall with loading from one side.
Two things deserve attention when specifying it. One is accuracy over the bed, for which Onsrud recommends laser compensation and linear scales on tight-tolerance work. The other is tooling. Twelve tools are standard, and a second 12-position rotary ATC keeps the gantry from crossing the whole bed for a tool. The standard spindle is 18 hp (13.4 kW) at 24,000 rpm.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table is 396 in (10,059 mm) in X, thirty-three feet, and the machine frame is 515 in (13,081 mm) long. Table Y is 61 in (1,550 mm) and the frame is 142 in (3,607 mm) wide.
02
The frames match: both are 515 in (13,081 mm) long, 142 in (3,607 mm) wide and 155 in (3,937 mm) high with a 28 in stroke and 9 vacuum zones. The 408G table is 408 in (10,364 mm); the 396G 5-Axis table is a foot shorter at 396 in (10,059 mm).
03
28 in (711 mm). Onsrud lists this code in the 28 in block only. The long narrow machine of the shallow blocks is the 420G 5-Axis, with 16 in or 18 in of Z.
04
It is not required, but Onsrud lists a second tool changer as an upgrade and mentions a second 12-position rotary ATC. With a table 396 in (10,059 mm) long, a changer at one end only means long trips for every tool change at the other.
