Our best estimate for the Mazak HCN-Q Series is $900,000 - $1,800,000. This is an estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) 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-hcn-q#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.
The pallet arrangement. Mazak lists the HCN-12500Q, HCN-16000Q and HCN-16800Q with a 2-pallet changer, which lets a finished workpiece be unloaded and the next one loaded while the machine is cutting. The HCN-12500QS, HCN-16000QS and HCN-16800QS are single-pallet machines. The optional automatic attachment changer is also listed as compatible with the three Q models.
Reaching deep features without a long tool. The quill, listed at Ø5 in (127 mm), feeds out of the spindle head on a W-axis with 22 in (559 mm) of travel, so the tool itself can stay short. W-axis rapid traverse is 354 ipm (9 m/min). Mazak gives the front spindle bearing inside diameter as Ø7.09 in and offers core cooling for the quill as an option.
It is rated 37 kW (50 HP) continuous and 45 kW (60 HP) at 40% ED, with 1,357 Nm (1,001 ft-lb) continuous and 1,848 Nm (1,363 ft-lb) at 40% ED. Maximum speed is 3,000 rpm on a CAT No.50 taper. The spindle is a gearless built-in motor design and is standard equipment across the series.
X travel runs from 80 in (2,032 mm) to 110 in (2,794 mm), Y from 55 in (1,397 mm) to 79 in (2,007 mm) and Z from 60 in (1,524 mm) to 73 in (1,854 mm), plus 22 in (559 mm) of W on every model. Machine height is 160 in (4,064 mm) to 191 in (4,851 mm) and weight 125,664 lb (57,000 kg) to 154,324 lb (70,000 kg).
The HCN-8800 is a 10,000 rpm CAT No.50 machine with 238 Nm (176 ft-lb) continuous, 55 in (1,397 mm) of X and a weight of 66,138 lb (30,000 kg). The HCN-Q series starts at 80 in (2,032 mm) of X and at almost twice the weight of the HCN-8800. Its spindle turns at 3,000 rpm but delivers 1,357 Nm (1,001 ft-lb) continuous, more than five times the HCN-8800 figure, and the quill on its W-axis is what the series is built around.
The magazine holds 80 tools on every model. Maximum tool diameter is Ø5 in (127 mm), or Ø10 in (254 mm) with the adjacent pockets empty. Maximum tool length is 32 in (813 mm) and maximum tool weight is 66 lb (30 kg). For special operations Mazak offers an optional automatic attachment changer on the 2-pallet models.
