Mazak VC-Ez 20X in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Mazak VC-Ez 20X

How much does the Mazak VC-Ez 20X cost?

Our best estimate for the Mazak VC-Ez 20X is $200,000 - $275,000. 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-20x#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.

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

In travel only, as far as the tables show. The VC-Ez 20X has 32 in (813 mm) of X and 20 in (508 mm) of Y and Z. The VC-Ez 16X has 28 in (711 mm) of X and 16 in (406 mm) of Y and Z. Both use a CAT No.40 spindle at 12,000 rpm and a 30-tool magazine.

What are the rotary axis ranges of the VC-Ez 20X?

B tilts from -110° to +40° and C rotates ±360°. The tilt is not symmetrical: one side goes past vertical, the other stops at 40°. Plan fixtures so that the faces needing the steepest tilt point toward the long side, and use C to bring other faces round.

How powerful is the spindle?

Mazak gives one figure, 18.5 kW (25 HP), and it is a five-minute rating. The table for this model has no continuous power and no torque figure. The spindle runs to 12,000 rpm with a CAT No.40 taper. Ask for the continuous rating if the work involves sustained heavy cuts.

How many tools does the VC-Ez 20X hold?

The magazine holds 30 tools, and that is the only capacity in Mazak's table for this model. The table does not give maximum tool diameter, length or weight, so check those limits against your longest and heaviest tools before ordering.

What guideways and ballscrews does the VC-Ez X series use?

Mazak describes the VC-Ez X series as having Hybrid MX roller guideway systems on all linear axes and pre-tensioned ballscrews supported at both ends. The trunnion and rotary table are described as roller gear driven, and the spindle as thermally controlled.
