Carlos;

I just priced Colombo spindles last week for a router. 3HP manual collet
was about $1450. 3HP with ISO 20 and automatic tool change head was $4500.
Inverters are extra.

These are considered premium quality stuff. Whether or not you can use an
18,000 RPM spindle is another matter. To get 3HP at 5,000 RPM with this
type of spindle you need one rated at about 10HP. Thassalottamoney! You can
reach the distributor in NC at (704) 922-5261.
