Our best estimate for the Makino DA500 is $400,000 - $600,000. 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-da500#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
Makino describes the DA500 as combining milling and turning in a single full five-axis machine. The table rotates at up to 800 rpm, and the spindle support for turning tools is placed to avoid damage to the front bearing. Makino refers to turning specifications, so confirm the turning build is the one quoted.
The DA500 is larger: 800 mm (31.49 in) X, 900 mm (35.43 in) Y and 550 mm (21.65 in) Z against 450 mm (17.7 in), 620 mm and 500 mm (19.7 in) on the DA300. Both run a 20,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle and 60,000 mm/min axes; the DA500 adds turning and a 14,000 rpm spindle option.
The spec table lists 800Ø x 500 mm (conditional) (31.5 inØ x 19.68 in (conditional)) and a 350 kg load limit. The table can carry either a 400 x 400 mm (15.74 in x 15.74 in) pallet or a 500 mm diameter pallet.
60 as standard, field expandable to 118, and the spec table also lists a 311-tool magazine as an option. Tools can be 70 mm / 140 mm (2.76 in / 5.51 in) in diameter, 300 mm long with an HSK shank and 8 kg (17.6 lb.) in weight.
