How much does the Okuma MU-8000V cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Okuma. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Okuma MU-8000V is a 5-axis machining center whose maximum machining volume Okuma lists as 1000 × 550 mm (39.37 × 21.65 in). The standard spindle runs to 10,000 rpm, rapid traverse is 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) and the standard magazine holds 32 tools.
Much of the specification is a matter of options. Okuma shows three alternative spindles in brackets, 15K, 20K and 25K rpm, and two larger magazines, 48 and 64 tools. The spindle decides what the machine is for: the 10,000 rpm standard unit for general steel and cast iron work, the faster ones for aluminium, small cutters and fine finishing. Since the brackets mark extras, any quoted or stock machine should be checked for the spindle and magazine actually fitted.
The machining volume is given as two figures, not three, which reads as a part diameter and height and says nothing about how far each axis moves. Axis travels, table size and table load are missing from Okuma's headline rows for this model and should be requested for any job near the 1000 mm limit. For reference, the MU-8000V Laser EX is listed with an 800 mm (31.50 in) table and a 32-tool magazine.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The standard spindle is 10,000 rpm. Okuma lists 15K, 20K and 25K rpm spindles in brackets, which marks them as options. The spindle fitted changes what the machine suits, so confirm it on any quotation.
02
32 as standard. Magazines of 48 and 64 tools are listed as options. A job that keeps roughing and finishing tools for several parts loaded at once is the case for the larger magazines.
03
Okuma gives a maximum machining volume of 1000 × 550 mm (39.37 × 21.65 in). The row has two figures, not three, so it does not state individual X, Y and Z travels; ask Okuma for those and for the table load before planning a part close to the limit.
