How much does the Starrag Droop+Rein FOGS Series cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Starrag. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Starrag Droop+Rein FOGS Series is an overhead gantry machine with 5 continuous axes, listed with up to 100 kW (134 HP) of spindle power and 7,500 Nm (5,531 ft-lb) of torque. In an overhead gantry the moving bridge runs on raised side walls, which leaves the floor between them clear for the workpiece.
Starrag offers the series with a single or a dual work zone. With two zones, one part can be set up while the other is being cut, which matters on workpieces whose clamping and alignment take hours. Whether that is worth the extra machine length depends on how the shop loads and how long its setups run.
The power and torque rows are both listed under the label HD, so they describe one spindle variant and should not be assumed for every machine in the series. As a guide to scale, the Droop+Rein TFS NEO Series is listed at 40 kW and up to 1,800 Nm (1,328 ft-lb), so the FOGS figures are 2.5 times the power and more than four times the torque. Travels, spindle speeds and tool capacities are not given in the published table and have to come from Starrag for the machine being quoted.

- 5 continuous axes on an overhead gantry structure
- Available with a single or a dual work zone, so setup and cutting can overlap
Limitations

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Starrag lists it as an overhead gantry machine with 5 continuous axes. It can be configured with a single or a dual work zone. The published table does not give axis travels, so the working envelope has to be confirmed for the specific machine.
02
The HD rows of the table list up to 100 kW (134 HP) and 7,500 Nm (5,531 ft-lb). For comparison, the Droop+Rein TFS NEO Series is listed at 40 kW and up to 1,800 Nm (1,328 ft-lb). Spindle speed is not listed for the FOGS.
03
Starrag lists single or dual work zones for the series. With a dual zone, one workpiece can be clamped and aligned in one area while the machine cuts in the other, which reduces spindle idle time on parts with long setups. The table gives no zone dimensions.
