How much does the Magerle MFP 51 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc grinding machine in this class — not a quote from United Grinding (Magerle). Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Magerle MFP 51 is a grinding center with a 500 x 650 mm (19.7 x 25.6 inch) table, a 50 kW (67.1 hp) spindle that reaches 12000 rpm, and swiveling ranges listed for three rotary axes: 210 ° on A, 360 ° on B and 360 ° on C.
That is a lot of spindle for the wheel it drives. The maximum grinding wheel is 300 mm (11.8 inch) in diameter and 60 mm (2.4 inch) wide, so the full 50 kW (67.1 hp) can be put through a narrow contact zone. The 12000 rpm ceiling serves the other end of the range, where a small wheel has to reach into a tight form and still run at a useful surface speed.
X is the short, fast axis, with 500 mm (19.7 inch) of travel at up to 50000 mm/min (1969 inch/min). Y and Z each have 650 mm of travel, listed as 25.6 inch for Y and 25.5 inch for Z, at up to 30000 mm/min (1181 inch/min). With three swiveling axes over those travels, a part can be turned to present several faces to the wheel without being re-clamped.
The Magerle MFP 100 keeps the same 50 kW (67.1 hp) rating on a bigger frame, with 1000 mm (39.4 inch) of X travel and a 1000 x 750 mm (39.4 x 29.5 inch) table. The MFP 51 is the machine for parts that fit its smaller table and benefit from its C range.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Three linear axes, X with 500 mm (19.7 inch), Y with 650 mm (25.6 inch) and Z with 650 mm (25.5 inch), plus swiveling ranges for A, B and C. The A range is 210 °, and B and C are each 360 °.
02
The maximum grinding wheel diameter is 300 mm (11.8 inch) and the maximum width is 60 mm (2.4 inch). The spindle behind it is rated at 50 kW (67.1 hp) and runs up to 12000 rpm, which also lets much smaller wheels reach working speed.
03
Maximum travel speed is 50000 mm/min (1969 inch/min) in X and 30000 mm/min (1181 inch/min) in both Y and Z. X is the axis that carries the stroke of the cut, which is why it is the fastest of the three.
04
Size and wheel width. The Magerle MFP 100 has travels of 1000 mm (39.4 inch), 900 mm (35.4 inch) and 750 mm (29.5 inch) and a 1000 x 750 mm (39.4 x 29.5 inch) table. The MFP 51 has 500 mm (19.7 inch) of X and 650 mm in Y and Z. Both carry a 50 kW (67.1 hp) spindle, and the Magerle MFP 100 takes a wheel up to 100 mm (3.9 inch) wide where the MFP 51 stops at 60 mm (2.4 inch).
