Q: How much does the Quaser MV154APC cost?

The price estimate for the Quaser MV154APC is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially.

Overview

The Quaser MV154APC is a vertical machining center with a two-pallet swing type changer, built for volume production. Each pallet measures 800 x 500 mm (31.5" x 19.7") and carries 250 kg (551 lbs); travels are 700 mm (27.6") in X, 500 mm (19.7") in Y and 560 mm (22.1") in Z.

Quaser places it, together with the MK603S, in the automotive and IT industries, and describes both as high-productivity machines with a more rigid mechanical structure and a surefooted pallet change system. The logic of the layout is simple. One pallet is under the spindle while the other faces the operator, so loading time disappears from the cycle. For short-cycle parts made by the thousand, that is where the output comes from.

The numbers fit that kind of work. A 250 kg (551 lbs) pallet rating and a maximum work piece of 800 x 500 x 370 mm (31.5" x 19.7" x 14.6") describe fixture plates full of small aluminium or zinc housings, not heavy single parts. Y travel equals the pallet width, so the whole plate is reachable.

A 48-tool magazine is standard, generous for a machine of this size and useful when one fixture holds several operations. The 40 taper spindle is listed across a wide band, 9K ~ 20K. Tools may be 76.2 mm (3") in diameter, 125 mm (4.9") with neighboring pots empty, and 280 mm (11.0") long. Compared with the MK603S, this is the smaller machine: the MK603S has 1,020 mm (40.2") of X travel and pallets of 1,050 x 550 mm.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Two pallets with a swing type changer, so parts are loaded while the spindle cuts
48 tools as standard on a machine with 700 mm (27.6") of X travel
Spindle band listed as 9K ~ 20K
Y travel of 500 mm (19.7") covers the full 800 x 500 mm (31.5" x 19.7") pallet width
Described by Quaser as having a more rigid mechanical structure for durability

Limitations

Each pallet carries only 250 kg (551 lbs), fixture included
Work piece height is limited to 370 mm under 560 mm (22.1") of Z travel
Quaser publishes no pallet change time, the key figure for a production machine
No spindle power, torque or rapid traverse rate is listed

Best For

High-volume automotive parts on fixture plates IT and electronics housings in aluminium, as Quaser's applications suggest Short-cycle jobs where loading time would otherwise dominate Multi-operation fixtures served by a 48-tool magazine

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the pallet size of the Quaser MV154APC?

800 x 500 mm (31.5" x 19.7"), with a load capacity of 250 kg (551 lbs) per pallet. The machine has 2 pallets and a swing type pallet changer. The maximum work piece size is 800 x 500 x 370 mm (31.5" x 19.7" x 14.6").

02 What are the travels of the MV154APC?

700 mm (27.6") in X, 500 mm (19.7") in Y and 560 mm (22.1") in Z. X travel is shorter than the 800 mm pallet length, so check that features at the pallet ends are within reach.

03 What spindle and tool magazine does the MV154APC have?

A 40 taper spindle with a maximum speed listed as 9K ~ 20K, and 48 magazine positions as standard. Maximum tool diameter is 76.2 mm (3"), or 125 mm (4.9") with neighboring pots empty; maximum tool length is 280 mm (11.0").

04 What is the MV154APC designed for?

Quaser describes the MV154APC and MK603S as high-productivity machining centers designed for the automotive and IT industries, and lists automobile, IT and mass production as applications.

05 How does the MV154APC compare with the MK603S?

Both have 2 pallets, a swing type changer, 48 tools and a spindle listed at 9K ~ 20K. The MK603S is larger, with 1,020 mm (40.2") of X travel, 610 mm (24.0") of Y and a 300 kg (661 lbs) rating, against 700 mm (27.6"), 500 mm (19.7") and 250 kg (551 lbs) on the MV154APC.
