Star Micronics SR-38J in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Star SR-38J

How much does the Star SR-38J cost?

Our best estimate for the Star SR-38J is $300,000 - $480,000. 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-sr-38j#price; the request is passed to Star Micronics or an authorised dealer.

Can the SR-38J run without a guide bush?

Yes. Star lists a maximum turning diameter of Ø42mm (1-21/32in) for non-guide-bush operation, against Ø38mm (1-1/2in) otherwise. Without the bush the bar is supported only at the spindle, so that mode is normally used for shorter parts.

How many axes does the SR-38J have?

Up to 10, including Y1, Y2, C1 and C2, with a Y-axis stroke of ±20 mm. Because the count is given as an upper limit, ask for the axis list of the specific machine on offer.

How powerful is the main spindle of the SR-38J?

7.5kW continuous and 11kW at the 10min./25%ED rating. Star's table for this model does not list a spindle speed or a sub-spindle rating, so request those along with the quotation.
