How much does the Makino MCD2016-5XA 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
On its metric figures, the Makino MCD2016-5XA is a compact 5-axis machine with 200 mm (7.9 in) of X, 150 mm (5.9 in) of Y and 150 mm (5.9 in) of Z, a 200 x 150 mm (7.9 x 5.9 in) table rated for 50 kg (110 lb), and a 40,000 RPM spindle with an HSK-E32 taper and 3.7 kW (5.0 hp). Makino does not carry it in its current lineup, it may be an older model, and the figures here are listed values that nobody has been able to verify against Makino.
There is a bigger problem than age. Further down, the same table switches to inch rows that belong to a much larger machine: a 39.4" pallet, a maximum workpiece of Ø78.7" x 60" R, a maximum payload of 5,060 lbs., tools up to 11.81" in diameter, and a spindle of 6,000 rpm. The rotary axes disagree as well. The metric rows list A at +90° to -90° (180° total) and C at 360° (continuous); the inch rows list A at 115° (-100°to +15°), B at 360° and C as None. A 5,060 lbs. payload on a 50 kg table is not possible, so at least one set of rows belongs to another machine.
For comparison, the current N2-5XA, Makino's small horizontal 5-axis for medical and aero-engine parts, has 300 mm (11.8 in) of X and Y, 230 mm (9.1 in) of Z, a 20,000 rpm HSK-A40 spindle and 36 tools, all verified on Makino's own page.
The other listed MCD2016-5XA rows are 20 m/min (787 ipm) rapids against 630 in/min in the inch rows, 0.5 µm positioning accuracy, 0.2 µm repeatability, a weight of about 4,500 kg (9,921 lb), a Makino Professional 6 (Pro 6) control, and a magazine of 30, (60,99,120) tools.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Metric rows list a 40,000 RPM HSK-E32 spindle, suited to small tools
- Metric rows list a 50 kg (110 lb) table load on a 200 x 150 mm (7.9 x 5.9 in) table
- Listed 0.5 µm positioning accuracy and 0.2 µm repeatability, if the metric rows apply
- Magazine of 30 tools listed, with 60, 99 and 120 bracketed as options
Limitations
- Metric and inch rows describe different machines: a 50 kg table against a 5,060 lbs. payload
- Rotary axes conflict: A +90° to -90° with a 360° C axis, against A 115° with a B axis and no C axis
- Not in Makino's current lineup and not verified against a Makino source
- Spindle power of 3.7 kW (5.0 hp) in the metric rows limits it to light cuts

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Not as listed. The model is not in Makino's current lineup, the table is unverified, and its metric and inch rows disagree: 200 mm (7.9 in) of X and a 50 kg (110 lb) table against a 39.4" pallet and a 5,060 lbs. payload. Confirm the machine from its plate and documents.
02
The listed table gives two versions. One is an A axis of +90° to -90° (180° total) with a 360° (continuous) C axis. The other is an A axis of 115° (-100°to +15°), a 360° B axis and no C axis. Only the machine itself can settle which is right.
03
The N2-5XA is a current, verified Makino model with 300 mm (11.8 in) of X and Y, 230 mm (9.1 in) of Z, a 200 mm ø pallet, a 20,000 rpm HSK-A40 spindle and 36 tools. The MCD2016-5XA metric rows show smaller travels and a faster 40,000 RPM spindle, but they are unverified.
04
The listed weight is about 4,500 kg (9,921 lb). Like the rest of the table this is unverified, so get a confirmed figure before planning rigging and the foundation.
