Our best estimate for the Citizen Cincom B12E-V is $80,000 - $140,000. This is an estimate for a swiss-type lathes in this class, not a quote from Citizen Machinery; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially.

Rotary tools and tool count. The Cincom B12E-VI adds gang rotary tools rated for 5 mm drilling and M4 tapping at 4,500 rpm, driven by a 0.5 kW motor, and it mounts 16 tools against 13 on the B12E-V. Bar capacity of 12 mm, the 12,000 rpm main spindle, the 12 mm back spindle chuck and the 1,150 kg weight are the same on both.
With the R.G.B. in use the maximum machining length falls from 135 mm per chucking to 60 mm per chucking, and the main spindle maximum drops below 12,000 rpm to the separate R.G.B. figure Citizen lists. The trade suits short parts where bar remnant matters more than length per stroke.
The back spindle takes a 12 mm chuck, runs to 6,000 rpm on a 1.0 kW motor and allows up to 30 mm of the workpiece to protrude. Back machining is listed to 5 mm drilling and M3 tapping, which covers facing, chamfering, centre holes and small tapped holes on the cut-off end.
Citizen lists a power requirement of 5.2 kVA and an average of 4 kVA during load operation. The main spindle motor is 2.2/3.7 kW, the back spindle motor 1.0 kW and the coolant pump 0.18 kW. The machine weighs 1,150 kg with a centre height of 1,000 mm.
