How much does the Quaser MV5 (#40) cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Quaser MV5 (#40) 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
Sixty inches of X is the reason to look at the Quaser MV5 (#40): 1,524 mm (60.0") of X travel on a 1,700 x 700 mm (66.9" x 27.6") table, with a 40 taper spindle. Y is 700 mm (27.6") and Z is 610 mm (24.0"), the same cross-section as the MV4, so this is in effect the longer-bed machine of the pair.
Two things change with the length. Table load rises to 2,000 kg (4,409 lbs). And the standard magazine on the 40 taper MV5 has 48 positions, where the MV4 (#40) has 30. On a long table that usually holds several different parts or a row of fixtures, the extra pockets mean fewer tool swaps between jobs.
Maximum spindle speed is listed as 12K ~ 24K, a range of spindle options. Nothing on Quaser's page says what power or torque each one delivers. Tool limits are the usual 40 taper ones: 76.2 mm (3") in diameter with the magazine full, 125 mm (4.9") with the neighboring pots empty, 280 mm (11.0") long.
Long aluminium extrusions, rails, plates and batches of smaller parts clamped side by side are the natural work. If the same length is needed for heavy steel cutting, the MV5 (#50) carries a 50 taper spindle listed at 7.5K ~ 15K on the identical table.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,524 mm (60.0") of X travel on a 1,700 x 700 mm (66.9" x 27.6") table
- 48 tool positions as standard, against 30 on the MV4 (#40)
- Table load capacity of 2,000 kg (4,409 lbs)
- Spindle speed range listed as 12K ~ 24K for aluminium and small-tool work
- 700 mm (27.6") of Y travel covers the full table width
Limitations
- Z travel is only 610 mm (24.0") on a machine this long
- Maximum tool length is 280 mm (11.0"); the MV5 (#50) accepts 350 mm (13.8")
- No spindle power or torque figures are published for the 12K ~ 24K options
- The published table omits rapid traverse rates, weight and floor space

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X travel is 1,524 mm (60.0") and the table is 1,700 x 700 mm (66.9" x 27.6"). Y travel is 700 mm (27.6") and Z is 610 mm (24.0"). The table is longer than the travel, so clamps can sit outside the cutting area at each end.
02
48 as standard, which is more than the 30 listed for the MV5 (#50). Each tool can be up to 76.2 mm (3") in diameter, or 125 mm (4.9") if the neighboring pots are empty, and up to 280 mm (11.0") long.
03
Quaser lists 2,000 kg (4,409 lbs) for the MV5 in both spindle versions. The MV4 (#40), with its shorter 1,400 x 700 mm (55.1" x 27.6") table, is rated for 1,800 kg (3,968 lbs).
04
The table gives the maximum spindle speed as 12K ~ 24K. Quaser says the MV series comes with various spindle speeds and drive configurations, so the exact spindle is an ordering choice. Power and torque are not published on the product page.
