MAZAK VARIAXIS J-600 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The MAZAK VARIAXIS J-600 is a high-precision vertical machining center designed for simultaneous 5-axis machining applications. It features an X-axis travel of 33.46 inches and a Y-axis travel of 21.65 inches, supported by linear roller guides for enhanced rigidity, accuracy, and high-speed feedrates. The machine is equipped with a 15-horsepower spindle capable of reaching up to 12,000 rpm, providing powerful, high-speed cutting performance. It integrates an 18-slot automatic tool changer (ATC) for efficient tool management and reduced downtime. The VARIAXIS J-600 employs a rigid trunnion table design with roller gear cams on the rotary axes to eliminate backlash, ensuring superior accuracy and durability during heavy-duty and complex multi-surface machining tasks. The table allows precise indexing increments down to 0.0001 degrees, supporting detailed 5-axis contouring and sculpted surface machining. Additional features include high-rigidity tilting rotary tables, synchronized tapping capabilities, programmable air blast, and optional accessories such as wireless touch probes for enhanced precision calibration. The machine’s ergonomic layout promotes operator accessibility to the table and tool magazine, streamlining workflow. With machine dimensions approximately 2400 mm (W) × 3325 mm (D) × 3060 mm (H) and a robust weight near 11,000 kg, the VARIAXIS J-600 is designed to deliver stable, repeatable accuracy and versatility across a wide range of materials and complex part geometries, making it suitable for demanding aerospace, automotive, and general precision manufacturing environments.
