How much does the Litz MV-1400A cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz MV-1400A 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-1400A is a large-table vertical machining center with BT-40 tooling: 1,400 mm (55.1 in) of X travel, 650 mm (25.6 in) of Y and 675 mm (26.6 in) of Z, an 8,000 rpm spindle and a 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) table rating. The machine weighs 11,000 kg (24,250 lb).
From this size up the MV series changes character. Rapids fall to 24 / 24 / 20 m/min (945 / 945 / 787 ipm) and maximum cutting feed to 10,000 mm/min, half the figure of the MV-1200A. Litz lists a front door safety system as standard, and a ZF gearbox among the options. These are the marks of a machine for heavy plates and long cycle times, where rigidity counts for more than traverse speed.
The spindle motor is 11 / 15 kW (15 / 20 HP), continuous and 30 min. Standard speed is 8,000 rpm with 10,000 rpm and 12,000 rpm as options. One oddity in the table: the standard magazine is given as 20 tools, while the accessory list names a 24T arm type magazine as standard and a 32T one as optional. Confirm the magazine size in the quotation.
The 1,400 x 620 mm (55.1 x 24.4 in) table has five 18 mm T-slots. Spindle nose to table distance is 85 to 760 mm (3.3 to 29.9 in). Tools are limited to 7 kg (15 lb), 300 mm (11.8 in) long, and 80 mm (3.1 in) in diameter with adjacent tools or 125 mm (4.9 in) without. Supply is 35 kVA.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The MV-1400A travels 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in X, 650 mm (25.6 in) in Y and 675 mm (26.6 in) in Z. The table measures 1,400 x 620 mm (55.1 x 24.4 in), carries 1,000 kg (2,205 lb), and sits 85 to 760 mm (3.3 to 29.9 in) below the spindle nose.
02
The MV-1400A is the BT-40 machine: 8,000 rpm, 11 / 15 kW, tools up to 7 kg (15 lb). The MV-1400B is BT-50 at 6,000 rpm with a 15 / 18.5 kW motor and tools up to 15 kg (33 lb). Travels, table and the 11,000 kg (24,250 lb) weight are the same.
03
Rapid traverse is 24 m/min (945 ipm) in X and Y and 20 m/min (787 ipm) in Z. Cutting feed is programmable from 1 to 10,000 mm/min. Axis motors are 2.0 / 2.0 / 3.5 kW.
04
The specification table gives 20 tools. The accessory list, however, marks a 24T arm type magazine as standard and a 32T arm type magazine as an option, so the count should be confirmed with Litz when ordering.
