Our best estimate for the Mazak MEGA TURN 500 is $180,000 - $280,000. This is an estimate for a cnc lathes / turning 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-mega-turn-500#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.
The table lists a maximum turning diameter of Ø20 in (508 mm), and Mazak's series page states the same limit for this model group as 19.69 in. Z travel is 20 in (508 mm) and X travel is 14 in (356 mm). The table carries at most 1,102 lb (500 kg), so on a solid steel part the load limit can be reached before the diameter limit is. Ask Mazak whether that load figure includes the chuck or fixture.
The two share 14 in (356 mm) of X travel, 20 in (508 mm) of Z travel, 1,181 ipm (30 m/min) rapids, a 12-tool turret and a 22 kW (30 HP) continuous spindle rating. The MEGA TURN 600 turns Ø25 in (635 mm), carries 1,543 lb (700 kg), is limited to 2,200 rpm and weighs 21,605 lb (9,800 kg). This model turns Ø20 in (508 mm), carries 1,102 lb (500 kg), runs to 3,000 rpm and weighs 20,392 lb (9,250 kg).
Not according to its table, which has no rotary-tool spindle rows. Mazak's series description covers combined turning and milling, and the MEGA TURN 500M is the model that adds it, with the same Ø20 in (508 mm) turning diameter, the same 14 in (356 mm) and 20 in (508 mm) travels and the same 20,392 lb (9,250 kg) weight.
There are three figures and each has its own rating: 22 kW (30 HP) continuous, 26 kW (35 HP) at 40% ED, and 596 ft-lb (808 Nm) of torque at 15%ED. The torque figure is therefore a short-duty peak. Size long roughing passes on the continuous rating and treat the higher figures as headroom for interrupted or brief heavy cuts.
The footprint is 73 in (1,854 mm) × 94 in (2,388 mm) with the MAZATROL SmoothEz control, the height is 118 in (2,997 mm) and the machine weighs 20,392 lb (9,250 kg). The turret holds 12 tools. Turning tools have a 1 in (25 mm) shank height and boring bars go up to Ø2 in (51 mm).
