2000 AKIRA SEIKI SV1300 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2000 Akira Seiki SV1300 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from Akira Seiki's Super Vertical (SV) series, designed for high-capacity machining of long workpieces requiring substantial X-axis travel. The SV1300 features a BT-40 spindle taper with a 42 HP peak motor and a maximum spindle speed of 15,000 RPM. The worktable measures 1,450 by 480 millimeters (57 by 19 inches) with a maximum workpiece load of 1,296 kilograms. Axis travels are 1,300 mm (51.2 inches) in X, 540 mm (21.3 inches) in Y, and 560 mm (22 inches) in Z. Rapid traverse reaches 48 m/min in X and Y and 36 m/min in Z. A 36-tool arm-type ATC is standard. The machine is controlled by the Akira Mi:845 system (Fanuc G-code compatible). Overall machine dimensions are approximately 169 by 88 inches (4,200 by 2,240 mm), with a machine weight of approximately 7,678 kilograms (16,926 pounds). The SV1300 was positioned for production environments requiring a large-format VMC for machining mold components, fixture plates, and structural parts in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 2000 build year places this machine in an early generation of the SV series; prospective buyers should verify control system version and spindle condition. Standard equipment includes chip conveyor, flood coolant, and automatic lubrication.
