2013 Mighty Viper Model LG-1000 CNC Vertical Machining Center

High-Speed Linear Series | 12k RPM Spindle | Verified Low Hours

This 2013 Mighty Viper LG-1000 is an exceptionally clean, low-hour vertical machining center designed for high-speed precision. While most units of this age have seen heavy production, this machine features under 7,000 auto-operating hours, making it a rare find for shops looking for "near-new" performance at a used-market price point.

Engineered for speed and agility, the LG-1000 features a 12,000 RPM spindle and a high-speed Mitsubishi Hartrol-M70 control, making it the perfect choice for aluminum work, 3D mold surfacing, and high-efficiency medical or aerospace components.

Lemke Machinery Sales is pleased to offer this 2014-delivered (2013 build) Mighty Viper LG-1000. While most machines of this age are nearing major spindle or guide overhauls, this unit features under 7,000 verified auto-operating hours. It has been utilized in a light-duty environment, leaving the spindle and linear guides in excellent, production-ready condition.

The LG-1000 is the "Precision Speedster" of the Mighty Viper lineup. With its 12,000 RPM spindle and agile linear guide construction, it is the ideal solution for shops focused on aluminum components, medical parts, 3D mold surfacing, and high-efficiency job shop work
