How much does the Mazak MULTIPLEX W-200 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc lathes / turning center in this class — not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Mazak MULTIPLEX W-200 is the 8 in chuck size of the twin-spindle MULTIPLEX W series, with two identical spindles that each run to 5,000 rpm and a turning envelope of Ø13 in (330 mm) by 7 in (178 mm). It is a machine for short chucked parts finished on both ends in one cycle.
The spindle rows show how symmetrical it is. The first and the second spindle each carry an 8 in chuck and are rated 15 kW (20 HP) continuous and 22 kW (30 HP) (40% ED). Either side can take the heavier operation, so a job can be split to balance cycle time instead of being arranged around a weaker second spindle. Maximum torque on the main spindle is 344 ft-lb (466 Nm) on a 25%ED rating.
Driven tools are part of this model even without a Y-axis. The rotary-tool spindle runs to 5,000 rpm with 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous, 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) (40% ED) and 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) of torque (40% ED), and the table lists a C-axis with a 360° range that rapids at 555 rpm. That covers drilling and milling on the spindle centreline and contouring with C and X. Flats and holes off centre are what the MULTIPLEX W-200Y adds, with ±2 in (51 mm) of Y travel.
Axis speeds are the highest in the series. X travels 11 in (279 mm) at 1,378 ipm (35 m/min) and Z travels 19 in (483 mm) at 1,654 ipm (42 m/min). The MULTIPLEX W-300 is slower on both, at 1,181 ipm (30 m/min) and 1,102 ipm (28 m/min). On short parts the cut is brief and positioning takes a large share of the cycle, so that difference counts.
The machine occupies 141 in (3,581 mm) × 85 in (2,159 mm) with the MAZATROL SmoothG control, is 81 in (2,057 mm) high and weighs 24,471 lb (11,100 kg).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Two matched spindles: 8 in chucks, 5,000 rpm and 15 kW (20 HP) continuous on each side
- Fast axes for short cycles: 1,378 ipm (35 m/min) in X and 1,654 ipm (42 m/min) in Z
- Rotary-tool spindle to 5,000 rpm with a 360° C-axis for on-centre drilling and contour milling
- 22 kW (30 HP) (40% ED) available on either spindle for the heavier operation
- Lighter and smaller than the MULTIPLEX W-300, at 24,471 lb (11,100 kg) against 29,541 lb (13,400 kg)
Limitations
- Maximum turning length is 7 in (178 mm), so this is a chucker and not a shaft machine
- No Y-axis on this model; the MULTIPLEX W-200Y adds ±2 in (51 mm)
- Rotary-tool torque is 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) (40% ED), which limits milling to light cuts
- Smaller capacity than the MULTIPLEX W-300, which turns Ø17 in (432 mm) with 22 kW (30 HP) continuous

Frequently Asked Questions
01
In the listed figures, yes. Both have an 8 in chuck, a maximum speed of 5,000 rpm and a motor rated 15 kW (20 HP) continuous and 22 kW (30 HP) at 40% ED. The table gives the 344 ft-lb (466 Nm) torque figure, a 25%ED rating, for the main spindle.
02
It has a rotary-tool spindle that runs to 5,000 rpm, rated 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous and 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) with 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) at 40% ED, and a C-axis with a 360° range. That allows drilling on the centreline and milling by moving C with X. For flats and off-centre holes cut directly, Mazak offers the MULTIPLEX W-200Y with ±2 in (51 mm) of Y.
03
Maximum turning length is 7 in (178 mm) and maximum turning diameter is Ø13 in (330 mm). Z travel is 19 in (483 mm) and X travel is 11 in (279 mm). Mazak's series description also covers long shafts held in both spindles with synchronized rotation; ask what length that allows on this model, since the table does not give it.
04
The MULTIPLEX W-300 has 10 in chucks, turns Ø17 in (432 mm) by 9 in (229 mm), runs to 4,000 rpm with 22 kW (30 HP) continuous and weighs 29,541 lb (13,400 kg). This model has 8 in chucks, turns Ø13 in (330 mm) by 7 in (178 mm), runs to 5,000 rpm with 15 kW (20 HP) continuous and weighs 24,471 lb (11,100 kg).
05
For the series, Mazak describes automatic workpiece transfer between the spindles for continuous first and second operations, an automatic partition between the two machining areas, a workpiece unloading device in the basic system and a gantry loader system. Confirm which of these are included on the machine quoted.
