Our best estimate for the Makino V99 (50 Taper) is $280,000 - $380,000. This is an estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) 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-v99-50t#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
Both have a 10,000 rpm CAT50 spindle with HSK-A100 optional and 800 mm (31.5 in) of Y travel. The Makino F8 has 1,300 x 800 x 650 mm of travel and a 1,550 x 800 mm (61 in x 31.5 in) table. The V99 (50 Taper) is smaller, with 1,000 x 800 x 500 mm and a 1,100 x 800 mm table.
The listed limits are 5.7 in in diameter and 44 lbs per tool. The standard magazine has 30 pockets, with 40 and 60 as options. Large-diameter tools often need their neighbouring pockets left empty, so check how the magazine is set up on the machine you are buying.
The main row gives 10,000 RPM from a 30 kW (40 hp) CAT50 spindle. A second row lists 12,000 with an 18,000 option, which does not fit a 50-taper spindle of this rating and may come from another version. Confirm the speed on the spindle plate before buying.
The table load is 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). A separate payload row gives 8,816 lbs, which is far above the table rating and probably belongs to another machine. Plan around 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), including fixtures and any rotary table.
