How much does the Mazak MULTIPLEX W-200Y 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-200Y is the Y-axis version of the 8 in twin-spindle MULTIPLEX W. Mazak's model list gives its configuration as Y-axis, and the table shows ±2 in (51 mm) of Y travel with a 591 ipm (15 m/min) rapid. The series page states the same stroke as 4 in overall.
Y travel is what lets a driven tool leave the spindle centreline. Mazak names the uses directly, milling flats and drilling off centre, and both matter on a machine meant to finish a part complete. The stroke is short, though. A feature that lies more than 2 in (51 mm) to one side of the centreline is outside it, so check the drawing for the widest flat and the furthest offset hole before choosing this size.
The rotary-tool spindle that does this work runs to 5,000 rpm. It is rated 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous and 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) (40% ED), with a maximum torque of 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) (40% ED). That is enough for drills, small end mills and light facing cuts, and not for heavy milling.
The turning side follows the MULTIPLEX W-200. Both models turn Ø13 in (330 mm) by 7 in (178 mm) in 8 in chucks at up to 5,000 rpm, with 15 kW (20 HP) continuous per spindle, and both rapid at 1,378 ipm (35 m/min) in X and 1,654 ipm (42 m/min) in Z. The second spindle matches the first in chuck size, speed and power, including the 22 kW (30 HP) (40% ED) rating. The Y-axis model weighs 24,691 lb (11,200 kg), against 24,471 lb (11,100 kg) for the MULTIPLEX W-200.
X travel is 11 in (279 mm) and Z travel 19 in (483 mm). The footprint is 141 in (3,581 mm) × 85 in (2,159 mm) with MAZATROL SmoothG, and the height is 81 in (2,057 mm).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Y travel of ±2 in (51 mm) for milled flats and off-centre holes, with a 591 ipm (15 m/min) Y rapid
- Same 5,000 rpm, 15 kW (20 HP) continuous twin spindles as the MULTIPLEX W-200
- Second spindle carries the same 8 in chuck and 22 kW (30 HP) (40% ED) rating as the first
- Rapids of 1,378 ipm (35 m/min) in X and 1,654 ipm (42 m/min) in Z, faster than the MULTIPLEX W-300Y
- Adds little weight for the Y-axis: 24,691 lb (11,200 kg) against 24,471 lb (11,100 kg) for the MULTIPLEX W-200
Limitations
- Y stroke is ±2 in (51 mm); the MULTIPLEX W-300Y gives ±3 in (76 mm)
- Rotary-tool torque of 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) (40% ED) restricts milling to light cuts
- Maximum turning length is 7 in (178 mm)
- The Y rapid of 591 ipm (15 m/min) is well below the X and Z rapids

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table lists ±2 in (51 mm), and Mazak's series page gives the stroke of this model as 4 in overall. Y rapid traverse is 591 ipm (15 m/min). The series page describes the Y-axis as intended for a wide variety of cutting, such as milling flats and drilling off-center.
02
The MULTIPLEX W-200 has the same chucks, spindles, X travel and rapids, and weighs 24,471 lb (11,100 kg). This model adds ±2 in (51 mm) of Y travel and weighs 24,691 lb (11,200 kg). With Y, a driven tool can be offset from the centreline to mill a flat or drill an off-centre hole directly.
03
The rotary-tool spindle runs to 5,000 rpm. Its motor is rated 3.7 kW (5 HP) continuous and 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) at 40% ED, and the maximum torque is 34.4 ft-lb (47 Nm) at 40% ED. Those ratings suit drilling and light milling. Large cutters and deep slots in steel will be limited by torque.
04
The MULTIPLEX W-300Y has 10 in chucks, turns Ø17 in (432 mm) by 9 in (229 mm), offers ±3 in (76 mm) of Y and 22 kW (30 HP) continuous, but runs to 4,000 rpm and weighs 29,762 lb (13,500 kg). This model is the choice when the parts fit Ø13 in (330 mm) by 7 in (178 mm) and the higher 5,000 rpm and faster rapids matter more.
05
Mazak quotes 141 in (3,581 mm) × 85 in (2,159 mm) with the MAZATROL SmoothG control and a height of 81 in (2,057 mm). The machine weighs 24,691 lb (11,200 kg). A gantry loader, which Mazak describes for the series, would add to that footprint; ask for the layout with the automation quoted.
