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 Quick Turn 250M is the 10 in chuck counterpart of the QUICK TURN 200M, with the spindle slowed to suit the bigger chuck: 4,000 rpm against 5,000 rpm. Mazak's model list gives its configuration as milling with a VDI turret.

The rest of the envelope barely changes with the chuck. Swing is Ø27 in (686 mm), maximum turning diameter Ø15 in (381 mm), X travel 9 in (229 mm) and Z travel 22 in (559 mm), all figures the QUICK TURN 200M table repeats. Maximum turning length is 20 in (508 mm) here and 21 in (533 mm) on the QUICK TURN 200M. Bar capacity is Ø3 in (76 mm). So the reason to pick the 250M is the chuck itself: a larger grip for bigger-diameter blanks, inside the same turning diameter limit.

The spindle is rated 26 kW (35 HP) on the 30 min. rating. No torque figure is on the table, and neither is any rotary-tool speed or power, so ask Mazak for both before judging the machine for heavy facing cuts or for milling-heavy parts. The 12-tool turret is listed with VDI holders, and tool shanks for the 10-inch group are Ø40 for boring bars and 25 mm for turning tools.

The configuration includes neither a Y-axis nor a second spindle. The QUICK TURN 250MS is the two-spindle version, with 23 in (584 mm) of Z travel. Among the series options, Mazak lists scale feedback for the X- and Z-axis.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the Quick Turn 250M and the QUICK TURN 200M?

Chuck size and spindle speed. The Quick Turn 250M has a 10 in chuck and a 4,000 rpm spindle; the QUICK TURN 200M has an 8 in chuck and 5,000 rpm. Swing, maximum turning diameter, X travel and Z travel are the same on both tables, and maximum turning length is 20 in (508 mm) against 21 in (533 mm) on the QUICK TURN 200M.

02 Does the Quick Turn 250M have a Y-axis?

No. Mazak's model list gives its configuration as Milling, VDI. Among the 8 in chuck models, the Quick Turn 200MY and Quick Turn 200MSY each list 4 in (102 mm) of Y travel.

03 What is the spindle rating of the Quick Turn 250M?

26 kW (35 HP) on the 30 min. rating, up to 4,000 rpm. The table gives no continuous rating and no torque figure. Mazak states that all Quick Turn models have a built-in motor spindle, without gears or belts.

04 What bar and part sizes does it take?

Bar up to Ø3 in (76 mm), turning diameters up to Ø15 in (381 mm) and turning lengths up to 20 in (508 mm), under a Ø27 in (686 mm) swing. Travels are 9 in (229 mm) in X and 22 in (559 mm) in Z.
