CITIZEN L12-1M7 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Citizen L12-1M7 is a state-of-the-art Swiss-type CNC turning center engineered for precision machining of small-diameter components. This horizontal machine features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 0.470" and maximum turning length of 5.320", making it ideal for compact, high-precision applications in medical, aerospace, and electronics industries. The machine is equipped with a single main spindle capable of 15,000 RPM at 3.0 HP, with an optional configuration reaching 12,000 RPM at 5.0 HP, delivering exceptional cutting speeds for intricate work. A secondary counter-spindle operates at 10,000 RPM with 1.0 HP, enabling complex multi-axis operations. The L12-1M7 features a 5-axis control system with rapid traverse rates of 1,378 IPM across X, Y, and Z axes, ensuring swift positioning and reduced cycle times. With Low-Frequency Vibration (LFV) cutting technology, the machine optimizes chip control and surface finish on difficult-to-machine materials. A detachable guide bushing provides operational flexibility, allowing seamless transitions between long, small-diameter workpiece machining and short workpiece processing with minimal material waste. The Cincom System M7 Control with Mitsubishi Meldas 70LPC ensures intuitive multi-axis programming and synchronized control, simplifying setup for complex jobs. Weighing approximately 3,858 lbs with a compact footprint of 69.29" × 32.28" × 63.39", this machine maximizes shop floor efficiency while delivering reliable, repeatable precision for demanding manufacturing requirements.
