Overview
The Mazak QT-Ez 10M is the milling-equipped variant of the 10-inch QT-Ez turning center, delivering Mazak build quality and live tooling capability at a value-oriented price point. The M designation adds C-axis indexing and driven tools to the base QT-Ez 10, enabling cross-drilling, tapping, and light milling operations without a secondary setup on a machining center.
The QT-Ez 10M runs a 254 mm (10 in) chuck with a maximum turning diameter of 343 mm (13.5 in) and a maximum turning length of 513 mm (20.2 in). The built-in motor spindle delivers 18.5 kW (25 hp) at up to 4,500 RPM, eliminating belt-driven vibration for improved surface finish. Bar capacity is 65 mm (2.56 in), covering most standard bar stock sizes for mid-range production turning.
The 12-position turret accepts bolt-on or BMT 55 tooling with C-axis indexing resolution of 0.0001 degrees. Live tool speed reaches 6,000 RPM with adequate power for cross-drilling and tapping in steel. The turret configuration provides a solid balance between tool capacity and indexing speed for mixed turning and milling work.
The MAZATROL SmoothEz control runs on a 15-inch touchscreen, providing conversational programming and G-code execution in a simplified interface. SmoothEz is more intuitive than the full SmoothG for operators new to MAZATROL but handles standard turning and live-tooling programming without limitation.
The QT-Ez 10M competes with the Haas ST-20Y, Doosan Lynx 2600M, and DN Solutions Lynx 2600 M. It slots below the Quick Turn 200M on price while delivering comparable build quality and spindle design. For shops that need live tooling capability without Y-axis or sub-spindle complexity, the QT-Ez 10M delivers exactly the right level of capability at an accessible price.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Built-in motor spindle eliminates belt vibration for better surface finish at value pricing
- BMT 55 turret option provides rigid live tooling for cross-drilling and tapping
- 0.0001-degree C-axis indexing matches more expensive Quick Turn models
- MAZATROL SmoothEz on 15-inch touchscreen is intuitive for operators new to Mazak
- 65 mm bar capacity handles standard 2.5-inch bar stock for production work
- Mazak build quality at 20-30% below equivalent Quick Turn pricing
Limitations
- No Y-axis limits off-center milling to C-axis interpolation only
- SmoothEz control lacks some advanced SmoothG features for complex programming
- Turning length of 513 mm limits longer shaft work
- Less established resale market compared to Quick Turn series

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New pricing starts around $85,000 for base configuration and reaches $130,000 with high-pressure coolant, chip conveyor, and bar feeder interface.
02
The 10MY adds a Y-axis for off-center milling operations. The 10M relies on C-axis interpolation for milling, which limits the complexity of milled features.
03
The Haas ST-20Y includes Y-axis at a similar price point. The QT-Ez 10M trades Y-axis for Mazak's built-in motor spindle and MAZATROL programming.
04
Yes. LNS, Iemca, FMB, and Hydrobar feeders are compatible. Bar capacity is 65 mm (2.56 in) through the spindle bore.
