Our best estimate for the Matsuura LV-500 is $250,000 - $400,000. This is an estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class, not a quote from Matsuura Machinery; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/matsuura-lv-500#price; the request is passed to Matsuura Machinery or an authorised dealer.
A 46,000 rpm spindle rated at 11 kW (14.7 hp). BT30 is the standard taper and HSK-E40 is available as an option at the same 46,000 rpm. Through-spindle coolant is standard.
The table gives Ø 160 mm × H 230 mm in standard form and Ø 160 mm × H 200 mm in the configuration marked [with PC]. Travels are 500 × 350 × 300 mm (19.7 × 13.8 × 11.8 in), and the table carries up to 100 kg (220 lb).
Both have 500 mm (19.7 in) of X, 300 mm (11.8 in) of Z and a 46,000 rpm spindle with BT30 standard and HSK-E40 optional. The LV-500 has 350 mm (13.8 in) of Y and 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) rapids. The LF-160 has 250 mm (9.8 in) of Y and 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) rapids, and adds B and C rotary axes on a Ø 100 mm pallet.
60 m/min (2,362 ipm) on X, Y and Z. The V.Plus-550 and VX-1000 are both listed at 42 m/min (1,654 ipm), so the LV-500 moves between features faster, which shortens cycles made of many small operations.
