The Makino MCD1516-5XA is an industrial-grade 5-Axis Machining Centers powered by the Makino Professional 6 (Pro 6). a top spindle speed of 40,000 RPM, and a 5-axis kinematic layout. It supports standardized digital factory monitoring via MTConnect.
Makino MCD1516-5XA, a possible older 5-axis model. The listed table mixes two machines: 150 mm travels and 40,000 RPM against a 39.4" pallet.

Our best estimate for the Makino MCD1516-5XA is $350,000 - $500,000. 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-mcd1516-5xa#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
No. It is not in Makino's current lineup and may be an older model. The table on this page could not be matched to a Makino specification, so every figure needs confirming from the machine itself.
It holds two sets of rows. The metric set gives 150 mm (5.9 in) of X, a 40,000 RPM HSK-E32 spindle and a 30 kg (66 lb) table load. The inch set gives a 39.4" pallet, a 6,000 rpm spindle, a 5,060 lbs payload and tools up to 11.81". Both cannot describe the same machine.
The listed table gives two answers: 40,000 RPM with an HSK-E32 taper and 3.7 kW (5.0 hp) in the metric rows, and 6,000 rpm in the inch rows. Check the spindle plate before relying on either.
The magazine row reads 30 (60, 99, 120): 30 tools standard, with 60, 99 and 120 as options. This row does not conflict with the others, but it is still unverified.
