Overview

The Mazak QT-COMPACT 100M is listed as a small live-tool turning center: a 4 in chuck on an A2-4 spindle nose, a 140 mm (5.51 in) maximum turning diameter, 160 mm (6.30 in) of machining length and 26 mm (1.02 in) of bar capacity. It is not in Mazak's current lineup under this name, so it is most likely an older designation, and anyone reading this is probably weighing a second-hand machine or matching a nameplate. Take the listed figures as a guide and check them against the machine's own documentation.

Everything in the listed table points at small parts run fast. The main spindle is listed at 8,000 RPM with 7.5 kW (10 hp), and no duty rating is given with the power figure. Travels are 100 mm (3.94 in) in X and 250 mm (9.84 in) in Z, with rapids of 20 m/min (787 ipm) in X and 24 m/min (945 ipm) in Z, under a 320 mm (12.60 in) swing over the bed. Listed weight is 2,200 kg (4,850 lb).

The milling side is carried by the turret rows: 12 stations of BMT live tooling, with a live-tool speed of 6,000 RPM and 2.2 kW (3 hp). That is enough for cross holes, small flats and light slotting on parts of this size, and too little for heavy milling. There is no Y-axis row in this table. The QT-COMPACT 100MY listing shows the same envelope with a Y travel row and a listed weight of 2,400 kg (5,291 lb). The table names MAZATROL SmoothEz as the control, which is worth confirming on the machine itself.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Listed 8,000 RPM main spindle for small-diameter bar and chuck work
12-station BMT turret with live tooling listed at 6,000 RPM and 2.2 kW (3 hp)
Listed rapids of 20 m/min (787 ipm) in X and 24 m/min (945 ipm) in Z over short 100 mm (3.94 in) and 250 mm (9.84 in) strokes
Listed weight of 2,200 kg (4,850 lb) with a 320 mm (12.60 in) swing over the bed

Limitations

Bar capacity is listed at 26 mm (1.02 in), which confines bar work to small stock
A 140 mm (5.51 in) maximum turning diameter and 160 mm (6.30 in) of machining length rule out anything but small parts
No Y-axis row in the listed table; the QT-COMPACT 100MY listing has one
The 7.5 kW (10 hp) spindle and 2.2 kW (3 hp) live-tool figures are listed without a duty rating or a torque figure

Best For

Small bar parts up to 26 mm (1.02 in) in diameter Short chucked parts within 140 mm (5.51 in) by 160 mm (6.30 in) Turned parts needing light cross drilling or flats in the same setup
