Our best estimate for the Mazak MEGA TURN 500M is $220,000 - $330,000. 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-500m#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.
A rotary-tool spindle. Mazak's model list gives the configuration as Milling, and the table adds four rows for it: 4,000 rpm, 5.5 kW (7 HP) continuous, 7.5 kW (10 HP) at 10%ED and a maximum torque of 70 ft-lb (95 Nm) at 10%ED. Turning diameter, travels, table load and machine weight are the same as on the MEGA TURN 500.
Much weaker, by design. The rotary-tool spindle peaks at 70 ft-lb (95 Nm) and 7.5 kW (10 HP), both at 10%ED, with 5.5 kW (7 HP) continuous. The turning spindle gives 596 ft-lb (808 Nm) at 15%ED and 22 kW (30 HP) continuous. Use the driven tools for drilling and light milling and leave stock removal to the turning tools.
The table lists X travel of 14 in (356 mm) and Z travel of 20 in (508 mm) and no Y-axis row, and Mazak's model list describes the configuration as Milling only. If a part has features away from the centreline, ask Mazak how the machine positions the workpiece for them before committing the job.
Mazak's model list shows the MEGA TURN 500M and the MEGA TURN 500MS together under one configuration, Milling. The figures on this page are those of the MEGA TURN 500M table. Ask Mazak how the MS version differs before assuming any of them carry over.
The MEGA TURN 600M turns Ø24 in (610 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). X and Z travels, rapids and the 22 kW (30 HP) continuous spindle rating are the same on both.
