How much does the Litz DM-800 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz DM-800 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-800 pairs an 18,000 rpm BBT-40 spindle with an 800 x 500 x 540 mm work envelope (31.5 x 19.7 x 21.3 in). It shares its frame dimensions with the DV-800, down to the 910 x 500 mm (35.8 x 19.7 in) table and the 5,300 kg (11,684 lb) machine weight. The spindle is what separates them.
Where the DV-800 has 10,000 rpm and a 7.5 / 11 kW motor, the DM-800 has 18,000 rpm and 15 / 18.5 kW (20.1 / 24.8 hp), continuous and 30 min rated. So the DM is not a lighter, faster-spinning variant. It has more speed and more motor at once, which lets it rough with a 40-taper cutter and then finish with a small ball mill in the same setup. That is the pattern of mould and die work and of aluminium structural parts.
Litz also lists coolant through the ballscrews on the three axes as an option for this model, alongside linear scales and roller type linear guideways. On long finishing programs, ballscrew heat is what moves a dimension over the day, so these are the options to price if tolerances are tight.
The table carries 500 kg (1,102 lb). Tools may be 270 mm (10.6 in) long and 8 kg (18 lb), 24 of them in an arm-type changer. Rapids are 36 / 36 / 24 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 945 ipm) and the supply requirement is 20 kVA.
