How much does the Litz MV-1400B cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

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.

Litz MV-1400B — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the Litz MV-1400B that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from Litz or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What spindle does the Litz MV-1400B use?

A BT-50 spindle at 6,000 rpm with a 15 / 18.5 kW (20 / 25 HP) motor, continuous and 30 min rated. The spindle air seal and spindle head coolant cooling system are standard. 8,000 rpm and 10,000 rpm spindles, a spindle oil cooler and coolant through the spindle are options.

02 What are the tool limits on the MV-1400B?

The 24-tool arm changer accepts tools 125 mm (4.9 in) in diameter with adjacent tools and 225 mm (8.9 in) without, up to 350 mm (13.8 in) long and 15 kg (33 lb). A 32T arm type magazine is optional.

03 Is the MV-1400B fully enclosed?

Not as standard. The accessory list shows a hood for the top of the machine as standard and the full enclosure as an option, together with the chip conveyor and wash down device. A chip auger, chip cart, water gun and air gun are included.

04 What does the MV-1400B weigh and what supply does it need?

The machine weighs 11,000 kg (24,250 lb) and needs a 35 kVA supply with compressed air at 6 kg/cm². The coolant tank holds 360 L. The standard control is the Mitsubishi M80; FANUC and Siemens 828D are options.
