How much does the Litz MV-1400B cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz MV-1400B 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-1400B puts a BT-50 spindle over a 1,400 x 620 mm (55.1 x 24.4 in) table. Spindle speed is 6,000 rpm, the motor is rated 15 / 18.5 kW (20 / 25 HP), and travels are 1,400 mm (55.1 in), 650 mm (25.6 in) and 675 mm (26.6 in) in X, Y and Z.
This is the heavy-cutting half of the MV-1400 pair. Tool limits show it: 125 mm (4.9 in) in diameter with adjacent tools, 225 mm (8.9 in) without, 350 mm (13.8 in) long and 15 kg (33 lb). A cutter of that size on a 15 kW continuous spindle removes steel at a rate the BT-40 MV-1400A, with its 11 / 15 kW motor, is not built for.
A small line in the table deserves attention. The Y axis motor is 3.5 kW here; the listing reads 2.0 / 3.5 / 3.5 kW where the MV-1400A has 2.0 / 2.0 / 3.5 kW. The saddle drive is sized up to push the table against larger cutting forces.
Travel speeds are moderate: 24 / 24 / 20 m/min (945 / 945 / 787 ipm) rapids and cutting feed to 10,000 mm/min. The table takes 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). The enclosure differs from the A as well: a hood for the top of the machine is standard and the full enclosure is an option. Weight is 11,000 kg (24,250 lb), supply 35 kVA, coolant tank 360 L.
