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 QTE-300MSY is listed with the full set of QTE options on an A2-8 spindle: a 4,000 RPM, 22 kW (30 hp) main spindle, a 5,000 RPM sub-spindle at 15 kW (20 hp), and a live tooling turret with a Y-axis of 100 mm (±50 mm). On paper that makes it a done-in-one machine for 80 mm (3.15 in) bar.

Check the model against Mazak before relying on it. The series list Mazak publishes for the QTE runs to eight models, and its top entry is the QTE-200MSY SG, configured as Milling, Second Spindle, Y-axis. No 300 size is on the list. The numbers here are listed figures, with no duty ratings attached to the power values.

If the listed figures hold, the split of work between the spindles is fairly even. The sub-spindle has about two thirds of the main spindle's listed power and a higher top speed, so second-operation cuts need not be confined to light finishing. The Y-axis gives 50 mm either side of centre and rapids at 10 m/min (394 ipm), a third of the 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on X and Z. Rotary tools are listed at 6,000 RPM and 5.5 kW (7.4 hp).

Listed travels are 230 mm (9.06 in) in X and 620 mm (24.41 in) in Z, and the listed weight is 6,400 kg (14,110 lb). The control is MAZATROL SmoothEz. Mazak offers Ez LOADER collaborative robots and a gantry loader as options across the QTE series, a natural pairing for a machine meant to run parts complete.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Listed sub-spindle at 5,000 RPM and 15 kW (20 hp), enough for real second-operation cutting
Y-axis listed at 100 mm (±50 mm) with a 10 m/min (394 ipm) rapid
Listed 80 mm (3.15 in) bar capacity on an A2-8 main spindle
12 stations of live tooling at a listed 6,000 RPM and 5.5 kW (7.4 hp)
C-axis resolution listed at 0.0001 degrees

Limitations

No QTE-300 model on Mazak's QTE series list; the largest listed machine with this configuration is the QTE-200MSY SG
Main spindle top speed is listed at 4,000 RPM, which limits surface speed on small diameters
Listed weight of 6,400 kg (14,110 lb) needs checking against floor and rigging limits
Power figures are listed without duty ratings

Best For

Bar parts up to the listed 80 mm (3.15 in) machined complete on both ends Turned parts with milled features within 50 mm of the centreline Longer unattended runs using the series' optional loaders Second-operation work that needs the listed 15 kW (20 hp) sub-spindle

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What do the listed figures say the QTE-300MSY includes?

A main spindle (4,000 RPM, 22 kW (30 hp), A2-8 nose), a sub-spindle (5,000 RPM, 15 kW (20 hp)), and a 12-station live tooling turret with Y-axis travel of 100 mm (±50 mm). Mazak uses the same three terms, Milling, Second Spindle and Y-axis, for the QTE-200MSY SG on its series list.

02 Does Mazak list a QTE-300MSY?

Mazak's QTE series list has eight models in the 100 and 200 sizes and none in a 300 size. The listed MSY machines are the QTE-100MSY SG and the QTE-200MSY SG. Ask Mazak directly whether a 300 is available and get the specification in writing.

03 How much Y-axis travel is listed?

100 mm, given as ±50 mm about the spindle centreline, with a Y rapid traverse of 10 m/min (394 ipm). For comparison, the QTE-100MSY table shows 4 in (102 mm) of Y travel. A feature further than 50 mm off centre would need a C-axis move or a different machine.

04 What automation is available for it?

Mazak describes two optional systems for the QTE series. Ez LOADER uses collaborative robots and dedicated software so that robot teaching is not needed. The gantry loader handles workpiece loading and unloading for long automatic runs, with different loader hands and work conveyors. Both are options and neither is part of the listed figures here.
