How much does the Starrag SIP 7000 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 SIP 7000 is a 5-axis precision machining center with a listed volumetric positioning accuracy of under 3 µm, across travels of 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in X and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in both Y and Z. The table measures 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) and takes workpieces up to 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). The SIP 7000 is not shown on Starrag's current product pages; the listed figures should be confirmed for any individual machine.
A volumetric figure is a stricter statement than a per-axis one. It covers the error of the tool point anywhere in the working space, with the straightness and squareness errors of every axis combined. That makes it the number that predicts how well two bores at opposite corners of a part will relate to each other. Holding that level over 1,200 mm (47.2 in) of X is the reason to consider this machine.
The rotary axes are a B axis that swivels +/- 105° and a C axis with 360° continuous rotation. The spindle runs to 20,000 RPM on an HSK-A63 taper with 22 kW (30 hp), figures that suit finishing and fine boring more than heavy stock removal; no torque is listed. The magazine holds 60 tools, and the table shows no larger option. The control is a Heidenhain TNC 640, and the machine weighs 18,000 kg (39,683 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Volumetric positioning accuracy listed at under 3 µm
- Travels of 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in X and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Y and Z
- B axis swivel of +/- 105° with a 360° continuous C axis
- 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) table for workpieces up to 1,000 kg (2,205 lb)
- 20,000 RPM spindle on an HSK-A63 taper
Limitations
- Spindle power is 22 kW (30 hp) with no torque figure listed, so it is a finishing spindle more than a roughing one
- The table lists 60 tools and shows no larger magazine option
- At 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) the machine needs a foundation and rigging check, and the model is not on Starrag's current product pages

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A volumetric positioning accuracy of under 3 µm. Volumetric means the figure applies to the tool point anywhere in the working space, not to one axis measured alone. No current Starrag page confirms it, so ask for the measurement record of the machine in question.
02
The table is 800 x 800 mm (31.5 x 31.5 in) and the maximum workpiece weight is 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). The travels are 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in X, 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z.
03
A B axis with a swivel of +/- 105° and a C axis with 360° continuous rotation. With X, Y and Z that gives five axes, so several faces of a part can be machined in a single clamping.
04
A 20,000 RPM spindle with an HSK-A63 taper and 22 kW (30 hp). The magazine holds 60 tools and the control is a Heidenhain TNC 640. No spindle torque is listed.
