Our best estimate for the Mazak VC-Ez 26X is $225,000 - $300,000. 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-26x#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.
Mazak's model list for the VC-Ez X series names two machines, the VC-Ez 16X and the VC-Ez 20X. A 26X is not on that list. The figures on this page are listed figures only, and the model should be confirmed with Mazak before it is planned around.
A 12,000 RPM spindle with a CAT No. 40 taper and 15 kW (20 hp) with no duty rating, a 30-tool magazine with 50 optional, a rapid of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm), and the MAZATROL SmoothEz5 control with a 15-inch touchscreen. No linear travels, table load or weight are listed.
The VC-Ez 16X has 28 in (711 mm) of X and 16 in (406 mm) of Y and of Z. The VC-Ez 20X has 32 in (813 mm) of X and 20 in (508 mm) of Y and of Z. Both the VC-Ez 16X and VC-Ez 20X use a CAT No.40 spindle at 12,000 rpm with 30 tools.
The series is described with Hybrid MX roller guideways on all linear axes, a pre-tensioned ballscrew system supported at both ends, a roller gear trunnion and rotary table, and precision-balanced spindle cartridges. Thermal Shield technology and a thermally controlled spindle are named for thermal stability.
