How much does the Litz MV-800 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz MV-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 MV-800 opens the MV vertical machining center series with 800 mm (31.5 in) of X travel, 450 mm (17.7 in) of Y and 540 mm (21.3 in) of Z. It carries a 10,000 rpm BT-40 spindle and a 24-tool arm changer, and at 4,500 kg (9,921 lb) it is the lightest MV model.
In the MV series spindle speed falls as the machines grow. The MV-1000 is listed at 8,000 rpm and the MV-1200B at 6,000 rpm, so the MV-800 is the quick one of the family, suited to smaller cutters and lighter parts. A 12,000 rpm spindle is listed as an option, along with a spindle oil cooler and coolant through the spindle. Note that the oil cooler is an option here; the standard spindle list has only the air seal system.
The table is 850 x 450 mm (33.5 x 17.7 in) with a 350 kg (772 lb) limit, and the T-slots sit 80 mm from the centre where the MV-1000 uses 100 mm. Spindle nose to table distance is 80 to 620 mm (3.1 to 24.4 in), low enough to reach thin work with stub tools.
Rapids are 36 / 36 / 24 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 945 ipm) and cutting feed runs to 20,000 mm/min. The axis motors are small at 1.5 / 1.5 / 2.0 kW, in keeping with the light table. Supply is 15 kVA, coolant capacity 200 L, and the standard control is the Mitsubishi M80.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 10,000 rpm standard spindle, the fastest standard speed in the MV series, with 12,000 rpm as an option
- Spindle nose reaches down to 80 mm (3.1 in) above the table
- 36 / 36 / 24 m/min (1,417 / 1,417 / 945 ipm) rapids
- Lightest MV model at 4,500 kg (9,921 lb) on a 15 kVA supply
Limitations
- 350 kg (772 lb) table load limits fixture and part weight
- Spindle oil cooler is an option on this model
- Y travel of 450 mm (17.7 in) is short next to the 500 mm of the MV-1000
