Our best estimate for the Makino a900Z is $1,500,000 - $2,200,000. This is an estimate for a 5-axis machining centers in this class, not a quote from Makino; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/makino-a900z#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
The spec table gives Ø 1,250 mm x 1,000 mm High (Ø 49.2 in x 39.4 in High) and 1,200 kg (2,640 lb) on an 800 mm (31.5 in) pallet. Travels are 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in X, 1,200 mm (47.2 in) in Y and 1,185 mm - 1,265 mm (46.7 in - 49.8 in) in Z.
Standard is 10,000 rpm, rated 73.8 HP (55 kW) peak power and 532 ft-lbs (721 N-m) peak torque. Options are an 8,000 rpm high-torque spindle for tool materials and hard metals, and a 15,000 rpm spindle.
Against the a800Z, the a900Z has an 800 mm (31.5 in) pallet instead of 630 mm (24.8 in), 1,400 mm (55.1 in) of X instead of 1,280 mm (50.4 in), and lists a 15,000 rpm spindle and a 185-tool magazine as options. The a800Z lists only 60 tools and no spindle above 10,000 rpm. Both have 1,200 mm (47.2 in) of Y.
A 60-tool ring magazine is standard and a 185-tool matrix magazine is optional. Tool-to-tool time is 1.8 - 1.9 sec. Tools can be up to Ø 356 mm (Ø 14.0 in) in diameter and 30 kg (66 lb).
