How much does the Shibaura Machine BTD-130S.R22 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Shibaura Machine BTD-130S.R22 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 Shibaura Machine BTD-130S.R22 pairs a 5.1 in (130 mm) boring spindle with a 71 x 87 in (1,800 x 2,200 mm) table and long travels: 118 in (3,000 mm) in X, 90.5 in (2,300 mm) in Y and 63 in (1,600 mm) in Z. The W axis adds 27.5 in (700 mm).
Table load is where the configuration matters most. The standard table is rated for 26,400 lb (12,000 kg). An air-lift table raises that to 44,000 lb (20,000 kg), and the optional 2-pallet APC is rated at 33,000 lb (15,000 kg) per pallet. Those are three limits for three builds, so the weight of the heaviest part plus its fixture decides which one to order, and it should be settled when the machine is specified.
The spindle runs to 2,500 rpm. The BTD-110S.R16 reaches 3,000 rpm and the BTD-200QS 5,000 rpm, so this is the slowest of the three, which fits the work: a 130 mm spindle on a machine this size is there for large boring bars and face mills in steel and cast iron, where bar stiffness counts for more than speed. Shibaura Machine's table lists no spindle power or torque, though, so the cutting capacity itself has to be confirmed.
Y travel of 90.5 in (2,300 mm) is longer than either side of the table. That suits tall parts such as frames and housings stood on end, and the 27.5 in (700 mm) of W reaches bores set well back from the face.
The magazine holds 60 tools and the control is the FANUC 31i-B Plus. The BTH-130.R24 is the comparison to make at this size: it has a 2,000 x 2,400 mm (78.7 x 94.4 in) table rated for 20,000 kg (44,000 lb) as standard, a load the BTD-130S.R22 reaches only with the air-lift option.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 118 in (3,000 mm) of X, 90.5 in (2,300 mm) of Y and 63 in (1,600 mm) of Z travel
- 5.1 in (130 mm) boring spindle with a 27.5 in (700 mm) W axis
- Table load of 26,400 lb (12,000 kg), or 44,000 lb (20,000 kg) with the air-lift table
- Optional 2-pallet APC rated at 33,000 lb (15,000 kg) per pallet
- 60-tool magazine with the FANUC 31i-B Plus control
Limitations
- Spindle speed stops at 2,500 rpm, below the 3,000 rpm of the BTD-110S.R16
- The 44,000 lb (20,000 kg) rating needs the optional air-lift table; the standard table takes 26,400 lb (12,000 kg)
- No spindle power, torque, rapid traverse or accuracy rows are listed
- The APC is an option, and its 33,000 lb (15,000 kg) per-pallet limit is below the air-lift table's rating

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It depends on the table ordered. The standard table is rated for 26,400 lb (12,000 kg). With the air-lift table the rating is 44,000 lb (20,000 kg). The optional 2-pallet APC carries 33,000 lb (15,000 kg) per pallet. Fixture weight counts toward each of these limits.
02
Travel is 118 in (3,000 mm) in X, 90.5 in (2,300 mm) in Y and 63 in (1,600 mm) in Z, with 27.5 in (700 mm) on the W axis. The table measures 71 x 87 in (1,800 x 2,200 mm). Both X and Y travel exceed the table's longer side, so overhanging and tall parts can still be covered.
03
The 5.1 in (130 mm) boring spindle runs to 2,500 rpm. No high-speed head is listed for this model, and the table gives no power or torque figure. If the work includes small tools or aluminium, compare it with the 5,000 rpm BTD-200QS before deciding.
04
The BTD-110S.R16 is the smaller machine, with a 55 x 63 in (1,400 x 1,600 mm) table rated for 13,860 lb (6,300 kg) and a 3,000 rpm spindle. The BTD-130S.R22 has a 71 x 87 in (1,800 x 2,200 mm) table, 26,400 lb (12,000 kg) of standard table load and a 2,500 rpm spindle. Both carry 60 tools.
