Our best estimate for the Makino J3 is $180,000 - $280,000. This is an estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) 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-j3#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
The standard machine has 400 mm (15.7 in) in X, Y and Z. Makino offers 630 mm (24.8 in) of X and 550 mm (21.7 in) of Y and Z as options. The J-Series is configured during the pre-sales engineering phase of a program, so the strokes are chosen to suit the line.
16000 rpm is standard, with 12000 rpm and 8000 rpm spindles as options. The standard taper is HSK-A50 and HSK-A63 is optional. Makino's table gives no spindle power or torque for any of them.
Makino describes the J-Series as single-table machines, combining a stacked axis design with a single table. The standard table is ø400 mm (Ø 15.7 in) round, with a 400 x 400 mm (15.7 in x 15.7 in) pallet as an option. Part loading is planned as part of the machining line.
The J3 is the smaller machine: 400 mm (15.7 in) standard strokes, 65,000 mm/min rapids, an HSK-A50 spindle and 15 tools. The Makino J6 has 750 mm (29.5 in) of X and 560 mm (22.0 in) of Y, 75,000 mm/min (2,953 ipm) rapids, an HSK-A63 spindle and 30 tools as standard.
Tools up to 80mm (3.15 in) in diameter and 5 kg. as standard. Makino lists 125 mm diameter and 8kg. tool weight as options. The magazine holds 15 tools, with 28 and 30 tool magazines available.
