How much does the Litz TX-700 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Litz TX-700 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 TX-700 is the middle size of the TX tapping centers. It keeps the BT-30 spindle, 12,000 rpm speed and 48 / 48 / 48 m/min (1,890 / 1,890 / 1,890 ipm) rapids of the series and gives them 700 mm (27.6 in) of X travel over an 850 x 400 mm (33.5 x 15.7 in) table.
Two things are done with the extra X on a machine like this. One is longer parts: heat sinks, rails, frames and covers that overhang a 500 mm machine. The other is more parts per cycle, with a row of small fixtures along the table so the operator loads less often. In both cases Y stays at 400 mm (15.7 in) and Z at 330 mm (13.0 in), so the gain is in one direction only.
Table load is 250 kg (551 lb), unchanged from the TX-500 despite the longer table. A full row of hydraulic fixtures can reach that figure, so weigh the setup. The machine itself weighs 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) and needs 15 kVA.
The spindle motor is 3.5 / 5.5 kW (4.7 / 7.4 hp). Tooling is limited to 3 kg (7 lb) and 250 mm (9.8 in) in the 21-tool disc type magazine. Standard equipment includes a full enclosure and slideway protection covers on X, Y and Z. Options include a 4th axis rotating table or a DDR embedded motor 4th axis, an automatic door and a fixture cleaning device, which together turn the TX-700 into a production cell.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
850 x 400 mm (33.5 x 15.7 in), with three 14 mm T-slots and a 250 kg (551 lb) load limit. X travel is 700 mm (27.6 in), Y is 400 mm (15.7 in) and Z is 330 mm (13.0 in).
02
A BT-30 spindle at 12,000 rpm with a 3.5 / 5.5 kW (4.7 / 7.4 hp) motor, continuous and 30 min rated. Rigid tapping and a spindle air blow device are standard; a 24,000 rpm spindle is optional.
03
The Mitsubishi M80 is standard and is the control named in the specification table. The Mitsubishi M830S and FANUC 0iMD are listed as options in the accessory list.
04
The TX-1000 has 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of X, 500 mm (19.7 in) of Y, a 350 kg (772 lb) table load and cutting feed to 30,000 mm/min. The TX-700 is the choice when 700 x 400 mm is enough and a 3,500 kg machine fits the floor better.
