Our best estimate for the Mazak FF-5000/40 is $500,000 - $800,000. This is an estimate for a 5-axis machining centers in this class, not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/mazak-ff-5000-40#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.
The pallet is 20 in (508 mm) × 20 in (508 mm) and the maximum workpiece is Ø28 in (711 mm) × 28 in (711 mm), at up to 1,102 lb (500 kg) evenly distributed. Travels are 26 in (660 mm) in X, 26 in (660 mm) in Y and 22 in (559 mm) in Z, and the distance from spindle center to pallet runs from 2 in (51 mm) to 28 in (711 mm).
It is a 12,000 rpm CAT No.40 spindle rated 15 kW (20 HP) continuous and 18.5 kW (25 HP) at 40% ED. Torque is 44 Nm (32 ft-lb) continuous and 60 Nm (44 ft-lb) at 40% ED. Mazak quotes a spindle acceleration time of 1.4 sec from 0 to 12,000 rpm for the FF series, whose spindle has a built-in motor and no drive gears.
Mazak lists three table types for the FF series: the B-axis table specification, an A-axis table specification (optional) and an A-axis/B-axis table specification (optional). The NC table is driven by a roller gear cam, with a quoted positioning time of 1.5 sec per 90 degrees, and the pallet's minimum indexing angle is 0.001°.
Mazak gives 25.59 in as the distance between machines, made possible by the narrow structure and the magazine placed on top. One machine is 69 in (1,753 mm) wide and 157 in (3,988 mm) long with the MAZATROL SmoothC control. Mazak shows lines of 18 machines with 3 double arm gantry loaders and of 20 machines with 5 articulated robots.
The magazine holds 20 tools. A tool can be up to Ø4 in (102 mm) in diameter, or Ø6 in (152 mm) when the adjacent pockets are empty, up to 14 in (356 mm) long and up to 22 lb (10 kg). With 20 pockets, the tool list of the part has to be settled before the fixture is designed.
