How much does the Starrag Droop+Rein T/TF 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 T/TF Series covers portal and gantry machines with 5 continuous axes, spindle power of up to 150 kW (201 HP), torque of up to 12,000 Nm (8,851 ft-lb) and a tool store of up to 500 tools. Every one of those figures is an upper limit, which tells a buyer this is a modular series and not a single fixed machine.
The tool figure deserves attention. A capacity of up to 500 tools is far beyond what one part needs; it is the size of store that serves a machine running many different workpieces, with long tools and duplicates kept loaded. If the work is a narrow family of parts, a much smaller magazine will do, and the quotation should reflect that.
On the cutting side, the Droop+Rein TFS NEO Series is listed at 40 kW and up to 1,800 Nm (1,328 ft-lb), so the T/TF offers several times the torque for roughing large steel and cast-iron parts. Starrag's table does not say which members of the series are portal machines and which are gantries, and it gives no travels or spindle speeds.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Starrag lists a capacity of up to 500 tools. That is the maximum for the series, not a standard magazine size, so the store fitted to a given machine depends on the configuration ordered.
02
Up to 150 kW (201 HP) and up to 12,000 Nm (8,851 ft-lb). Both are maximum values across the series. The published table does not list spindle speeds or the smaller spindle variants.
03
Starrag lists the machine type as portal/gantry with 5 continuous axes, so the series includes both forms. The table does not state which form each model takes or what travels are offered, which has to be settled with Starrag for the part in question.
