Our best estimate for the Star Micronics SB-16R Type G is $85,000 - $140,000. This is an estimate for a swiss-type lathes in this class, not a quote from Star Micronics; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/star-micronics-sb-16r-type-g#price; the request is passed to Star Micronics or an authorised dealer.
The table lists two power-driven units. The 4-spindle unit uses ER 16 collets and runs to a maximum of 6,000 RPM. The 5-spindle unit uses ER 11 collets and runs to a maximum of 10,000 RPM. Each is rated 1.0 kW continuous. Confirm with the dealer which unit is fitted to the machine being quoted.
With the guide bush the maximum headstock stroke is 205 mm (8 in). Without the guide bush the stroke is bar diameter x 2.5, with a maximum of 50 mm. Maximum machining diameter is 16 mm (5/8 in) in both cases.
The sub spindle is listed at 9,000 rpm. The main spindle row reads 6,000 rpm, the same figure as the ER 16 power-driven unit and lower than the sub spindle, so confirm the main spindle maximum with the dealer. Main spindle power is 2.2 kW continuous and 3.7 kW at 10min./25%ED.
The turning tool post holds 6 tools with □12 mm shanks or 7 tools with □10 mm shanks. The back unit is a 4-spindle type carrying 4 tools for work on the sub spindle side.
Mainly in bar size. The SB-16R Type G takes Ø16 mm (5/8 in) and weighs 1,700 kg. The SB-12R Type G takes Ø13 mm (33/64 in) and weighs 1,750 kg. Both list 2.2 kW (Continuous) / 3.7 kW (10min./25%ED) of main spindle power, 35 m/min rapid traverse on X1, Y1, Z1, X2 and Z2, and a Fanuc 0i-TD control.
