How much does the Mazak VORTEX 630-4XS cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Mazak VORTEX 630-4XS is listed as a 5-axis machining center with a 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallet, a two-pallet changer and an 8,000 rpm CAT 50 spindle. Travels are listed at 900 mm (35.4 in) in X and Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. The model is not in Mazak's current lineup and may be an older or regional one, so every figure on this page is a listed figure to be confirmed for the particular machine.
The spindle figures point at heavy cutting more than speed. Power is listed at 37 kW (50 hp) at 40% ED and 30 kW continuous, with 500 Nm (369 ft-lb) at 40% ED; no continuous torque is given. The tool limits match that emphasis: up to 200 mm (7.87 in) in diameter, 600 mm (23.6 in) long and 35 kg (77 lb), in a 60-tool magazine with 120 listed as an option.
The work envelope is larger than the pallet suggests. A part up to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in diameter and 1,250 mm (49.2 in) tall is listed, at up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). Rotary motion is an A-axis range of -5 to +110 degrees and a continuous 360 degrees on B, and rapids are 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) on X, Y and Z. At a listed 55,000 kg (121,254 lb), the foundation and the rigging need planning well ahead. The listed control is the MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed 500 Nm (369 ft-lb) at 40% ED from a CAT 50 spindle, with 30 kW continuous power
- A two-pallet changer is listed as standard
- Takes workpieces up to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in diameter, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) tall and 1,500 kg (3,307 lb)
- 60 tools standard and 120 optional, with tools up to 600 mm (23.6 in) long and 35 kg (77 lb)
Limitations
- The 8,000 rpm top speed limits small-tool finishing; the VORTEX i-630V/6 runs to 10,000 rpm
- A-axis range is -5 to +110 degrees, so the tilt works in one direction
- Listed weight of 55,000 kg (121,254 lb) calls for a substantial foundation and heavy rigging
- Not in Mazak's current lineup, and no continuous torque figure is listed
