Litz MV-1200A

Q: How much does the Litz MV-1200A cost?

The price estimate for the Litz MV-1200A is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/litz-mv-1200a#price; the request is passed to Litz or an authorised dealer.

We do not have a price for the Litz MV-1200A 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 MV-1200A is the BT-40 version of the MV-1200 vertical machining center. X travel is 1,200 mm (47.2 in), Y is 560 mm (22.0 in) and Z is 600 mm (23.6 in), with an 8,000 rpm spindle driven by a 7.5 / 11 kW (10 / 15 HP) motor.

Litz sells this frame two ways, and the letter matters. The MV-1200B takes BT-50 tooling, turns at 6,000 rpm and has an 11 / 15 kW motor. The MV-1200A described here is the lighter-cutting, faster-turning choice. It weighs 8,000 kg (17,637 lb), and its changer accepts tools up to 8 kg (18 lb) and 300 mm (11.8 in) long.

Pick the A when the work is mostly 40-taper tooling on medium-sized parts: plates, brackets, fixtures and housings where a big table is needed but a larger-taper spindle would sit idle. The table is 1,200 x 560 mm (47.2 x 22.0 in) and holds 750 kg (1,653 lb). If more low-end torque is needed later, a ZF gearbox with cooling system is on the option list, as is a 10,000 rpm spindle.

Rapids are 36 / 36 / 24 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 945 ipm). The standard magazine has 24 tools and a 32T arm type magazine is optional. Coolant through the ballscrews, roller type linear guideways and linear scales can be added on all three axes. Supply requirement is 25 kVA.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the MV-1200A and the MV-1200B?

The spindle and tooling. The MV-1200A uses BT-40, 8,000 rpm and a 7.5 / 11 kW motor. The MV-1200B uses BT-50, 6,000 rpm and an 11 / 15 kW motor, with a 15 kg (33 lb) tool weight limit and 635 mm (25.0 in) of Z travel. X and Y travels and the table are the same.

02 What are the travels and table of the MV-1200A?

Travels are 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in X, 560 mm (22.0 in) in Y and 600 mm (23.6 in) in Z. The 1,200 x 560 mm (47.2 x 22.0 in) table carries 750 kg (1,653 lb), and spindle nose to table distance is 100 to 700 mm (3.9 to 27.6 in).

03 How many tools does the MV-1200A carry?

The standard arm type magazine holds 24 tools, and a 32T arm type magazine is an option. Tools can be 300 mm (11.8 in) long and weigh 8 kg (18 lb). Maximum diameter is listed as 80 / 125 mm (3.1 / 4.9 in).

04 Can the MV-1200A be fitted with a gearbox?

Yes, as an option. The accessory list shows a ZF gearbox with cooling system among the spindle options, next to a 10,000 rpm spindle, a spindle oil cooler and coolant through the spindle. The standard spindle is 8,000 rpm.
