Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Soraluce. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Soraluce FX 12000 is a floor-plate milling machine with 12,000 mm (472 in) of X travel, 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of Y and 1,500 mm (59 in) of Z, plus an 800 mm (31.5 in) W ram stroke. Soraluce's current pages do not show this model, so it is probably an older machine and what follows are the listed figures, not a specification confirmed by the maker.
The listed spindle is an HSK-A100 unit of 37 kW (50 hp) and 1,196 Nm (882 ft-lb) running to 6,000 RPM. That is a modest power figure for an envelope this long, which points to a machine set up for reach and for finishing large surfaces more than for the heaviest roughing. The universal head is described as automatic indexing with continuous A/C axes, and DAS active damping (Dynamics Active Stabiliser) is listed.
Work sits on a floor plate with T-slots rated for 40,000 kg (88,185 lb); a rotary table is an option. The magazine holds 60 tools as standard and up to 120 as an option, rapid traverse is 25 m/min (984 ipm), and the control is a Heidenhain TNC 640. At approximately 65,000 kg (143,300 lb), a second-hand example needs foundation and rigging planned in advance, and the seller's build documents should be used to confirm travels and spindle.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 12,000 mm (472 in) of X travel with 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of Y
- Floor plate with T-slots for workpieces up to 40,000 kg (88,185 lb)
- Universal head with continuous A/C axes and an 800 mm (31.5 in) W ram stroke
- DAS active damping (Dynamics Active Stabiliser) is in the listed figures
- 60 tools as standard, with up to 120 as an option
Limitations
- 37 kW (50 hp) is a modest spindle rating for a machine of approximately 65,000 kg (143,300 lb)
- Z travel is 1,500 mm (59 in), so deep features depend on the 800 mm (31.5 in) ram
- The rotary table is optional and no load figure is listed for it
- A top speed of 6,000 RPM restricts small-diameter tools
