How much does the Willemin-Macodel 301S2 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Willemin-Macodel 301S2 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Willemin-Macodel 301S2 is the smallest table-type machining center in the maker's range: 270 mm of X, 120 mm of Y and 220 mm of Z over a slotted table of 300 x 150 mm, inside a cabinet 910 mm wide. Willemin-Macodel describes it as a 3- to 4-axis machine for flat parts and high-precision milling.
Speed at the tool is the point of the design. The HSK-A32 motorized spindle runs to 40,000 min-1, with 60,000 min-1 as the bracketed alternative, and DTS thermal stabilization is integrated. Linear axes are a different story. They feed at 20 m/min and resolve 0.1 µm, where the 401S2 one size up lists 40 m/min and 0.0125 µm.
Tools sit in a pick-up magazine of 28 positions. A change takes 6 sec tool to tool and 10 sec chip to chip, so the machine suits parts finished with a handful of cutters more than parts that cycle through dozens. Tool management is integrated and breakage detection runs in masked time.
The table has 4 grooves of 12-H8 at 32 mm centres. Floor area is listed as 1.6 m², while the headline text on the same page speaks of 1.5m2; plan for the larger figure. The control is a FANUC 0i-MF PLUS. A cooling unit, a robot or manipulator, high-pressure paper filtration at 80 or 150 bar and a precious metals kit are all listed under other options.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- HSK-A32 motorized spindle at 40,000 min-1, with 60,000 min-1 as the bracketed alternative
- A cabinet of 910 x 1,715 x 1,980 mm on a listed floor area of 1.6 m²
- Slotted table of 300 x 150 mm with 4 grooves of 12-H8 at 32 mm spacing
- DTS dynamic thermal stabilization, tool management and masked-time tool breakage detection are integrated
Limitations
- Linear axes feed at 20 m/min and resolve 0.1 µm, against 40 m/min and 0.0125 µm on the 401S2
- The pick-up magazine holds 28 tools and needs 10 sec chip to chip
- Y travel is 120 mm, less than the 150 mm depth of the table
- The table lists no spindle power or torque

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Travels are 270 mm in X, 120 mm in Y and 220 mm in Z. The slotted table measures 300 x 150 mm and carries 4 grooves of 12-H8 at 32 mm centre-to-centre, so fixtures are located on those grooves rather than on a grid of holes.
02
A motorized spindle with an HSK-A32 interface. The base speed is 40,000 min-1 and the bracketed alternative is 60,000 min-1. Lubrication is air-oil, with grease in brackets, and spindle resolution is ±0.02°. Willemin-Macodel prints no power or torque for it.
03
Both share the 270 mm, 120 mm and 220 mm travels, the spindle and the 28-tool pick-up magazine. The 308S2 replaces the slotted table with a B axis and a C-axis divider carrying a Ø120 mm plate, which makes it a 5-axis machine. The 301S2 keeps the 300 x 150 mm table for flat work.
04
6 sec tool to tool and 10 sec chip to chip, from a pick-up magazine of 28 tools. That is slow next to the 0.8 sec tool-to-tool figure of the 401S2, so cycle time on this machine depends on keeping the number of tool changes per part low.
