Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Röders RXU1001 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 Röders RXU1001 opens the RXU series, the line Röders builds for larger tools and higher spindle torque. It is a 3-axis machine with a machining range of 1,000 mm x 810 mm x 500 mm (39.4 x 31.9 x 19.7 in), a 996 mm x 796 mm (39.2 x 31.3 in) table and a workpiece limit of 2,000 kg (4,409 lb).
The standard spindle tells the story. It delivers 67 Nm (S1) at up to 24,000 rpm through an HSK A63 interface and takes tools up to 35 mm in diameter, and the largest spindle offered reaches 102 Nm (S1). Röders speaks of good roughing performance, depending on the spindle selected. So the RXU1001 is meant to rough and finish a die in one clamping, where a machine with a small high-speed spindle would only do the second half of that job.
Behind the spindle is a structure made for those forces. Röders describes 4 guideway rails at the 4 corner edges of the Z-axis, passing loads through 8 guideway carriages to the Y-axis and through 8 more into a portal structure with high damping. The result is a machine of about 19.5 t, heavy for its working area.
A high-torque spindle is limited in top speed, and Röders answers that with a second spindle: RXU machines are often built as twin-spindle machines, with an air-bearing spindle for very high surface finish requirements. The tool changer has 24 places, or 40, 75 or more with a chain. Required space is W 4,120 mm x L 4,910 mm, depending on configuration, by H 3,300 mm.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 67 Nm (S1) standard spindle at 24,000 rpm with HSK A63; up to 102 Nm (S1) with the largest spindle
- Tools up to 35 mm (1.4 in) in diameter
- 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) workpiece weight on a 996 mm x 796 mm table
- Z-axis guided on 4 rails at its 4 corner edges
- Often built as a twin-spindle machine with an added air-bearing spindle
Limitations
- About 19.5 t for a machining range of 1,000 mm x 810 mm x 500 mm
- Needs W 4,120 mm x L 4,910 mm of floor, depending on configuration
- 24,000 rpm on the standard spindle; higher speeds mean the second, air-bearing spindle
- 24 tool places as standard

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The standard milling spindle runs at 24,000 rpm with 67 Nm (S1) and an HSK A63 interface, for tools up to 35 mm in diameter. Others are available on request; the largest listed is an HSK A63 spindle with 102 Nm (S1).
02
Röders states that RXU machines are often designed as twin-spindle machines with an air-bearing spindle for very high surface finish requirements. The reason it gives is that high-torque spindles are limited in maximum rpm, so a second main spindle covers the high-speed work.
03
The machining range is 1,000 mm x 810 mm x 500 mm (39.4 x 31.9 x 19.7 in) over a table of 996 mm x 796 mm. The maximum distance between spindle nose and table is 700 mm (27.6 in), and the workpiece can weigh 2,000 kg (4,409 lb).
04
The working areas are close and both take 2,000 kg. The RXP950 has a 15 kW HSK E50 standard spindle for tools up to 20 mm and weighs about 14.5 t. The RXU1001 has a 67 Nm (S1) HSK A63 spindle for tools up to 35 mm and weighs about 19.5 t.
