Frequently Asked Questions: Mazak VC-Ez 16X

How much does the Mazak VC-Ez 16X cost?

Our best estimate for the Mazak VC-Ez 16X is $175,000 - $225,000. 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-vc-ez-16x#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.

What are the travels of the VC-Ez 16X?

28 in (711 mm) in X, 16 in (406 mm) in Y and 16 in (406 mm) in Z. The rotary axes are a B-axis with a range of -110° to +40° and a C-axis of ±360°. Mazak's table for this model does not state the table size or the table load.

How does the VC-Ez 16X differ from the VC-Ez 20X?

In travel. The VC-Ez 20X has 32 in (813 mm) of X and 20 in (508 mm) of Y and Z, where the VC-Ez 16X has 28 in (711 mm) and 16 in (406 mm). The VC-Ez 20X shares the CAT No.40 taper, the 12,000 rpm top speed and the 30 tools.

How much spindle power does the VC-Ez 16X have?

Mazak's table gives 19 kW (25 HP) on a 5 min rating for the spindle motor, at up to 12,000 rpm with a CAT No.40 taper. No continuous rating and no torque figure are given, so ask for the continuous output if the work involves long roughing cuts.

What does Mazak say about how the VC-Ez X series is built?

It describes Hybrid MX roller guideways on all linear axes, a pre-tensioned ballscrew system with support at both ends, a roller gear trunnion and rotary table, precision-balanced spindle cartridges and large headstock castings. Castings and ambient thermal conditions are monitored to make axis adjustments for part-to-part consistency.
