How much does the Mazak QUICK TURN 350MSY 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 QUICK TURN 350MSY pairs a 12 in main chuck with a 10 in second spindle, and what sets it apart is how little that second spindle gives away. The main spindle is rated 30 kW on a 30 min. rating with a 4,000 rpm ceiling. The second spindle is rated 26 kW (35 HP) on the same 30 min. basis and runs to 6,000 rpm. Mazak's model list gives the configuration as Milling, Y-axis, Second Spindle, VDI.
With that much power after the transfer, the split between first and second operation can follow the part instead of the machine. Stock can come off the second side in real quantity, and a 10 in chuck grips a part that was turned to a large diameter in the first operation. The usual habit of loading all the roughing onto the main spindle is not forced here.
The envelope is Ø17 in (432 mm) of turning diameter by 24 in (610 mm) of turning length under a Ø30 in (762 mm) swing, with Ø4 in (102 mm) of bar capacity. Travels are 11 in (279 mm) in X, 6 in (152 mm) in Y and 26 in (660 mm) in Z, and the W axis has 27 in (686 mm). The QUICK TURN 350M, the milling-only model on the same chuck, lists 10 in (254 mm) of X and the same 26 in (660 mm) of Z. The 6 in (152 mm) of Y gives room for milled pockets, offset holes and flats well away from the centreline on parts of this diameter.
Two cautions. The turret holds 12 tools for two spindles and the live tooling, which is the first limit most complex parts will reach. And Mazak's table prints the main spindle power as 30 kW (20 HP), while its series page gives the 12-inch models a 30 kW (40 HP) spindle. The kilowatt figure agrees in both places, so it is the horsepower in the table that needs confirming.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Second spindle rated 26 kW (35 HP) (30 min. rating) with a 10 in chuck and 6,000 rpm, close to the 30 kW (30 min. rating) of the main spindle
- Y-axis travel of 6 in (152 mm) for pockets, offset holes and flats
- Ø17 in (432 mm) turning diameter and Ø4 in (102 mm) bar capacity on a 12 in main chuck
- W-axis travel of 27 in (686 mm), longer than the 26 in (660 mm) Z travel
- X travel of 11 in (279 mm), against 10 in (254 mm) on the QUICK TURN 350M
Limitations
- 12 tools are shared between two spindles and the milling work
- Main spindle speed stops at 4,000 rpm, so the 6,000 rpm second spindle is the faster of the two
- Maximum turning length is 24 in (610 mm); this is a chucking and bar machine, not a shaft lathe
- The table's horsepower for the main spindle, 30 kW (20 HP), disagrees with the 30 kW (40 HP) on Mazak's series page and should be confirmed
- C-axis contouring on the second spindle is optional in the series

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Mazak rates it at 26 kW (35 HP) on a 30 min. rating, with a 10 in chuck and a 6,000 rpm maximum. The main spindle is rated 30 kW on a 30 min. rating with a 12 in chuck and 4,000 rpm. Because both figures are on the same rating, they can be compared directly: the second side has most of the first side's power.
02
Mazak's table for the model prints 30 kW (20 HP) on a 30 min. rating. Its series page lists the 12-inch chuck group with a 30 kW (40 HP) spindle. The two sources agree on 30 kW, so the kilowatt figure is the one to plan with, and the horsepower should be confirmed with Mazak.
03
X is 11 in (279 mm), Y is 6 in (152 mm) and Z is 26 in (660 mm). The W axis, on which a second spindle normally travels, has 27 in (686 mm). Mazak gives the bed-length class as 26 in (660 mm).
04
The QUICK TURN 350M has the same 12 in chuck, 4,000 rpm, Ø17 in (432 mm) turning diameter and 24 in (610 mm) turning length, with 10 in (254 mm) of X travel. The 350MSY adds the 10 in second spindle, a Y-axis with 6 in (152 mm) of travel and an extra inch of X, so parts come off finished on both ends.
05
The table lists 12 tools, and Mazak's model list gives the turret as VDI. Mazak groups the 12-inch models with a Ø50 boring bar shank and a 25 mm turning tool shank. On a two-spindle machine with live tools, lay out the turret for both operations before committing a part family to it.
