How much does the Citizen Miyano LX-06E cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc lathes / turning center in this class — not a quote from Citizen Machinery. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Citizen Miyano LX-06E is a compact two-axis (X, Z) fixed-headstock CNC chucking lathe with an 8-station turret, a tailstock and 150 mm of X stroke against 300 mm of Z. It is not in Citizen's current lineup; the Citizen table shown is the LX-06E3 column, and a used LX-06E may be an earlier generation.
Before relying on the headline figures, note that the page carries two sets of values for the chuck size, the maximum machining diameter, the spindle speed and the spindle motor. Those four should be read off the machine's nameplate and documentation rather than taken from this table. The rows that agree describe the tooling, the strokes and the tailstock.
The turret indexes in 0.25 sec per position. OD tools take 25 mm square shanks and the tool holes are 40 mm in diameter, a generous boring bar size for a machine of this class. Collet work is listed to 51 mm in diameter in both the stationary and draw types, which suits short parts cut from bar stock or slugs.
The tailstock carries an MT.3 live center and is rated at a maximum thrust of 4.9 kN on its slide. That makes the LX-06E a candidate for shafts and pins as well as chucked parts, within the 300 mm Z stroke. The machine takes 1,620×1,480 mm of floor and weighs approx. 2,820 kg. The control is listed as a Mitsubishi M80.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 8-station turret indexing in 0.25 sec per position
- Takes 25 mm square OD tools and boring bars in 40 mm diameter holes
- Tailstock with an MT.3 live center and 4.9 kN of maximum slide thrust
- Collet capacity of 51 mm in both stationary and draw types
- Compact: 1,620×1,480 mm of floor and approx. 2,820 kg
Limitations
- Chuck size, maximum diameter, spindle speed and motor rating appear twice with different values and must be confirmed on the machine
- Two axes only; the table lists no live tooling, Y axis or sub-spindle
- 8 turret stations limit the tool list for one set-up
- Not in Citizen's current lineup, so documentation for older generations may differ from the LX-06E3 figures

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table on this page holds two different sets of figures for the spindle speed, the motor rating, the chuck size and the maximum diameter. Read them from the machine's nameplate and documentation; on a used LX-06E those figures depend on the generation.
02
The turret has 8 stations and indexes in 0.25 sec per position. OD tools have 25 mm square shanks and boring bars or drills fit 40 mm diameter tool holes.
03
Yes. It takes an MT.3 live center, and the tailstock slide has a maximum thrust of 4.9 kN. Combined with the 300 mm Z stroke, that allows shafts and pins to be turned between chuck and centre.
04
It needs 1,620×1,480 mm of floor space and weighs approx. 2,820 kg. The slide strokes are 150 mm in X and 300 mm in Z, and the control is listed as a Mitsubishi M80.
