Our best estimate for the Brother Speedio HU550Xd1 is $220,000 - $300,000 (new). This is an estimate for a 5-axis machining centers in this class, not a quote from Brother Industries; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/brother-speedio-hu550xd1#price; the request is passed to Brother Industries or an authorised dealer.
It is larger in every direction. The HU550Xd1 has 550 x 500 x 400 mm (21.7 x 19.7 x 15.7 in) of travel and a ø400 mm table rated 200 kg (441 lb). The Speedio U500Xd2 has 500 x 450 x 380 mm (19.7 x 17.7 x 15.0 in) and a ø260 mm (ø10.2 in) table rated 100 kg (220 lb), with faster tool changes.
An A axis that tilts from 30 to -120° and a B axis that turns 360°, carrying the ø400 mm (15.7 in) table. A indexes at 50 rpm. The A axis has two drive motors listed as 1.35+1.35 kW and the B axis one of 0.9 kW.
Up to 350 mm (13.7 in) long, 125 mm (4.9 in) in diameter and 4.0 kg (8.8 lb) per tool, on MAS-BT30 shanks with MAS-P30T-2 pull studs. The magazine holds 30 tools and selects them by the random shortcut method.
A floor area of 1,557 x 2,744 mm (61.3 x 108.0 in), 2,682 mm (105.6 in) of height and a foundation for 3,150 kg (6,945 lb). Power is 200 to 230 VAC ±10%, 3-phase, at 10.4 kVA, and air is 45 L/min at 0.4 - 0.6 MPa.
