Overview

The Mazak QUICK TURN 200MS combines the popular 8-inch chuck Quick Turn 200 platform with live tooling and a sub-spindle, delivering done-in-one processing for parts that need backworking without the added cost of Y-axis capability. The MS configuration is ideal for shops running production parts that require machining on both ends but can keep milling features on or near centerline.

The main spindle delivers 22 kW (30 hp) at 5,000 RPM through an A2-6 spindle nose with 65 mm (2.56 in) bar capacity. The sub-spindle runs 11 kW (15 hp) at 5,000 RPM through a 6-inch chuck, handling backworking operations like face finishing, chamfering, ID boring, and tapping without manual rechucking. Automatic part transfer between spindles keeps cycle times tight on production runs.

The 12-station BMT turret runs live tools at 6,000 RPM with 5.5 kW (7.4 hp) for cross-drilling, tapping, and flat milling. Without Y-axis, milling operations are limited to features on or near the part centerline, but that covers the majority of turned part secondary operations including cross-holes, flats, and hex features.

The work envelope covers 300 mm (11.81 in) maximum turning diameter and 500 mm (19.69 in) maximum machining length with axis travels of 200 mm on X and 550 mm on Z. Rapids hit 30 m/min on both axes. The W-axis for sub-spindle positioning provides approximately 560 mm of travel. Machine weight is approximately 4,800 kg (10,582 lb).

MAZATROL SmoothG runs the control, with built-in synchronization features that simplify programming of simultaneous main and sub-spindle operations. The QT-200MS competes with the Doosan Lynx 2100LMSB, Okuma LB2000 EX II MS, and DMG Mori NLX 2000 with sub-spindle. New pricing typically falls between $130,000 and $200,000. Used units from the last 5-8 years trade between $55,000 and $110,000. Specs sourced from Mazak Corporation published data.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Sub-spindle enables done-in-one processing with automatic part transfer, eliminating secondary operations for parts needing backworking
22 kW main spindle with 5,000 RPM provides excellent power-to-speed ratio for an 8-inch chuck turning center
BMT live tooling with 5.5 kW at 6,000 RPM delivers solid milling rigidity for cross-drilling, tapping, and flat milling
Lower cost than the full MSY configuration by saving the Y-axis premium while still getting sub-spindle capability
MAZATROL SmoothG with built-in synchronization simplifies programming of simultaneous spindle operations
65 mm bar capacity enables bar-fed production with automatic cutoff and part transfer for lights-out running

Limitations

No Y-axis limits milling to features on or near the part centerline; off-center work requires the QT-200MSY
Starting around $130K new, the sub-spindle adds significant cost over the base QT-200M
Programming synchronized main/sub-spindle operations has a steeper learning curve than standard turning
Sub-spindle at 11 kW is less powerful than the main spindle, which limits heavy material removal on back-end operations

Best For

Production shops running parts that need machining on both ends where milling features stay on or near centerline Automotive component manufacturers producing shafts, fittings, and connectors requiring complete processing in one setup Contract manufacturers consolidating lathe operations to reduce WIP inventory and setup time on two-sided parts Bar-fed production environments where automatic cutoff and sub-spindle transfer eliminate manual handling Shops that need done-in-one capability but can save budget by skipping Y-axis in favor of the MS configuration

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does a new Mazak QUICK TURN 200MS cost?

New pricing typically falls between $130,000 and $200,000 depending on options. Adding high-pressure coolant, bar feeder interface, parts catcher, and additional live tool stations pushes the price higher. Used units from 2015-2022 trade between $55,000 and $110,000.

02 What is the difference between the QT-200MS and the QT-200MSY?

Both have milling and a sub-spindle. The MSY adds Y-axis with 100 mm of off-center travel. The Y-axis typically adds $20,000-$35,000 to the price. If your parts have off-center features like bolt holes or eccentric ports, the MSY is worth the upgrade.

03 Can the QT-200MS run lights-out with a bar feeder?

Yes. The sub-spindle handles automatic cutoff and part transfer. Combined with a bar feeder and parts catcher, the QT-200MS can run unattended through a full bar of material. Most shops pair it with an LNS or Iemca bar feeder for automated production.

04 How does the sub-spindle transfer work?

After main spindle operations complete, the sub-spindle advances to grip the part. The main spindle releases, and the sub-spindle retracts with the part for backworking operations. MAZATROL SmoothG handles the synchronization automatically through conversational programming cycles.
