How much does the Litz DM-600 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz DM-600 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Litz DM-600 is a high-speed vertical machining center built on a 30-taper spindle that runs to 24,000 rpm. Travels are 600 mm (23.6 in) in X, 410 mm (16.1 in) in Y and 540 mm (21.3 in) in Z, and the machine weighs 4,200 kg (9,259 lb).
Everything about the spindle says small tools. The shank is BT-30 and the motor is rated 3.7 / 4.6 kW (5.0 / 6.2 hp), continuous and 30 min. At 24,000 rpm that is the right combination for engraving, electrode and small mould detail, and for drilling and finishing in aluminium. It is the wrong one for a large face mill in steel. The other DM models, such as the DM-800, use BBT-40 and an 18,000 rpm spindle with a 15 / 18.5 kW motor, so the DM-600 is the fine-detail machine of the family and not simply its smallest size.
The frame figures match a compact VMC: a 700 x 400 mm (27.6 x 15.7 in) table that carries 350 kg (772 lb), five 14 mm T-slots, and 100 to 640 mm (3.9 to 25.2 in) between spindle nose and table. Rapids are 36 / 36 / 24 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 945 ipm).
The arm-type changer holds 24 tools up to 200 mm (7.9 in) long. A spindle oil cooler and spindle head coolant cooling system are standard, which matters on a spindle that will spend hours near top speed. Control is the Mitsubishi M80.
