Our best estimate for the ANCA FX7 is $200,000 - $320,000. 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-fx7#price; the request is passed to ANCA or an authorised dealer.
The tool size is the same: both are listed as productive up to Ø 12 mm with a 200 mm tool length. The FX7 has a 19 kW (25.5 HP) peak spindle where the FX5 has 12 kW (16 HP) peak as standard. The FX7 lists up to 6 wheel packs with the robot wheel changer against 2 on the FX5, and its loader holds 840 x Ø 3 mm against 340 x Ø 3 mm on the FX5.
The spindle is rated 19 kW (25.5 HP) peak and 8.2 kW (11 HP) S1. S1 is the continuous rating, the power the spindle can hold without a time limit, and peak is what it can deliver for short periods. On long grinding passes the 8.2 kW figure is the one that governs the feed rate you can sustain.
Two wheel packs of up to Ø 203 mm (8”) as the base figure, or 6 packs of up to Ø 203 mm (8”) with the robot wheel changer. If the work needs more than two packs per setup, confirm that the robot wheel changer is on the machine being quoted.
The table gives a maximum tool length of 200 mm (8”) and calls the machine productive up to Ø 12 mm (1/2”). The collet chuck range is wider, 3 – 25 mm, so larger shanks can be clamped. For production above 12 mm the MX7 is the listed alternative, productive up to Ø 25 mm (1”).
The listed capacity is 840 tools at Ø 3 mm, 520 at Ø 6 mm or 221 at Ø 12 mm. Those figures belong to the loader named in the capacity row of the table, so check that the machine on offer has that loader fitted.
