Our best estimate for the ANCA CPX is $200,000 - $300,000. This is an estimate for a cnc grinding machines in this class, not a quote from ANCA; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/anca-cpx#price; the request is passed to ANCA or an authorised dealer.
The CPX is a blank preparation grinder. The table describes it as a rigid 4-axes design for pinch/peel grinding, with 2 wheel packs, one for roughing and the other for finishing. It grinds the round blank that a tool grinder later turns into a finished cutting tool. It is not listed as a fluting machine.
There are two spindles. The roughing spindle has a peak power of 43 kW (58 HP) and the finishing spindle a peak power of 9.7 kW (13 HP). Both are peak figures. The table does not give a continuous S1 rating for either spindle.
The machine takes a tool shank diameter of 32 mm (1 1/4”) and a maximum tool length of 380 mm. With the AR300 loader the listed capacity is Ø20 mm (3/4”) x 200 mm (8”) long. Blanks between those two limits fit the machine but sit outside the loader figure, so ask how they are loaded.
The footprint is 2477 mm (97.5”) W x 1659 mm (65.3”) D x 2052 mm (80.8”) H. The table gives no machine weight and does not say whether the footprint includes the AR300 loader, so confirm both before planning the installation and the route into the shop.
The axes are driven by linear motors. The control is the ANCA AMC5 G2 High Performance CNC with a high speed SSD, EtherCAT, an Intel processor and Windows 10. The FX5 and MX7 list the same control, which helps a shop that runs blank preparation and tool grinding side by side.
