How much does the Makino MAG A4 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Makino. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Makino MAG A4 is listed here as a 5-axis machine with roughly 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X, 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of Z, a 33,000 RPM HSK-A63 spindle and 120 tools. It does not appear in Makino's current lineup, so treat it as a possible older model, and none of the listed figures has been checked against a Makino specification. The travels are marked as approximate in the table.
The listed layout is a fixed table with a moving gantry column, which is not how the current MAG machines of similar length are built: the MAG3.EX and MAG4 are pallet machines with 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X. Anyone offered a machine sold as a MAG A4 should first establish what the machine actually is, from its nameplate and documentation.
If the listed figures hold, the A axis runs +30° to -120° (150° total, direct drive) and C turns 360° (continuous, direct drive). Spindle power is given as about 80 kW (107 hp). Rapids are 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) on X and Y and 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) on Z. A through-table chip conveyor system and a Makino Professional 6 (Pro 6) control are also listed.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed 33,000 RPM spindle with an HSK-A63 taper
- Approximate travels of 4,000 mm (157.5 in) X and 2,500 mm (98.4 in) Y
- 120 tools listed as standard
- Direct-drive A axis (+30° to -120°) and continuous 360° C axis in the listed table
Limitations
- Not in Makino's current lineup, and the listed figures are unverified
- Travels are listed as approximate, so the real envelope must be measured or documented
- The listed gantry layout differs from the pallet layout of the current MAG3.EX and MAG4

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It is not in Makino's current lineup and may be an older model. The figures on this page are the listed ones and have not been verified against a Makino specification, so confirm the machine's travels, spindle and control from its own documentation.
02
About 4,000 mm (157.5 in) in X, 2,500 mm (98.4 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. The table marks all three as approximate.
03
A 33,000 RPM spindle with an HSK-A63 taper and about 80 kW (107 hp). The magazine is listed at 120 tools standard.
04
The current MAG4 has 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X, 2,200 mm (86.6 in) of Y and 800 mm (31.5 in) of Z on a 3,500 x 2,000 mm (137.8 in x 78.7 in) pallet, with a 33,000 rpm - 130 KW spindle and 120 (180) tools. The listed MAG A4 figures show similar X with more Y and Z, but on a fixed table and without verification.
