How much does the Mazak VCN-700D cost?

Estimated price range

Est.$185,000 - $300,000

Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak. Configuration moves it a long way.

Mazak VCN-700D — price

Est.$185,000 - $300,000

This is our best estimate for a machine of this type and class, built from published prices of comparable vertical machining centers (vmc) and typical dealer pricing. Yamazaki Mazak has not published a list price for the Mazak VCN-700D that we can cite. Treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

Listed with 1,537 mm (60.5 in) of X travel and a 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) table load, the Mazak VCN-700D is a large 40-taper vertical machining center that is not in Mazak's current lineup. It may be an older model. The figures here are the listed ones and are meant to help someone inspecting or quoting a machine already in the field.

The work envelope is 1,537 mm (60.5 in) by 700 mm (27.5 in) by 650 mm (25.6 in), over a table of 1,740 x 700 mm (68.5 x 27.5 in). Y travel matches the table depth. X does not match the length, so the outer ends of the table are for clamping.

Two things in the table are choices and have to be read off the actual machine. The spindle is an integral spindle/motor with direct drive, listed at 12,000 RPM as standard and 18,000 RPM as an option. The magazine is 30 tools as standard and up to 48. Separately, the listed 30 kW (40 hp) has no duty rating, so only the machine's spindle data shows what it delivers continuously. Tool change is listed at 1.3 seconds tool-to-tool.

For rigging, the listed weight is 8,500 kg (18,739 lb). Axes run on linear roller guides at 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) rapid, and the control is listed as MAZATROL SmoothG CNC with Quick Mazatrol. If the work needs a bigger taper, the NEXUS 6800-II has a 1,800 x 760 mm (70.9 x 29.9 in) table and a CAT 50 spindle at 10,000 RPM, and weighs 18,000 kg (39,683 lb).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • Integral spindle/motor with direct drive, listed at 12,000 RPM and 30 kW (40 hp)
  • Envelope of 1,537 mm (60.5 in) by 700 mm (27.5 in) by 650 mm (25.6 in) on a 40-taper machine
  • Table load listed at 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) for heavy plates and fixtures
  • Linear roller guides on all axes with 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) rapids and a 1.3 seconds tool-to-tool change

Limitations

  • Not in Mazak's current lineup; confirm the listed figures from the machine's own nameplate and manual
  • Whether a given machine has the 12,000 or the 18,000 RPM spindle, and 30 or 48 tools, has to be established on site
  • At 8,500 kg (18,739 lb) the machine needs heavy lifting gear and a checked floor
  • No torque figure and no duty rating are listed for the spindle

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Does Mazak still list the VCN-700D?

No. The VCN-700D is not in Mazak's current lineup and may be an older model. The listed figures, such as 1,537 mm (60.5 in) of X travel and a 1,740 x 700 mm (68.5 x 27.5 in) table, should be confirmed against the documents of the specific machine.

02 What should be verified when inspecting a VCN-700D?

Confirm which spindle is fitted, since 12,000 RPM is listed as standard and 18,000 RPM as an option, and whether the magazine holds 30 tools or the larger 48. Check the travels of 1,537 mm (60.5 in), 700 mm (27.5 in) and 650 mm (25.6 in) by jogging each axis to its limits, and ask for the spindle output data, because the listed 30 kW (40 hp) has no duty rating.

03 How heavy is the VCN-700D and what can its table carry?

The listed machine weight is 8,500 kg (18,739 lb) and the listed table load is 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). Size the crane or skates and the floor for the machine weight, and count fixture, rotary table and part together against the table limit.

04 What kind of spindle drive does the VCN-700D use?

The table describes it as an integral spindle/motor with direct drive and a CAT 40 taper. Listed speed is 12,000 RPM as standard with 18,000 RPM optional, and listed power is 30 kW (40 hp). No gearbox or torque figure appears in the table.
