Mazak – Nexus 250-ll with 3" Bar Capacity


QTNEquipped with enhanced stability, superior ease of operation and increased safety measures, the Mazak – Nexus 250-ll Lathe with 3” Bar Capacity is an essential device within Wolverine Machine’s CNC turning sector. Making Mazak’s lathe unique from others is its 3” thru spindle capacity and the ability to chuck large parts. This machine has a maximum machining diameter of 13.78”, a maximum stock length of 18.733” and a maximum chuck size of 10”. This spectacular machine is also capable of a feed rate of 108 ft/min with a maximum spindle speed of 4000 rpm with a 35 HP motor.

IMG_7717Exceptional accuracy is achieved through superior design and modern features which include rigid construction and an exceptional response system. The spindle motor is comprised of an advanced design that provides a maximum torque of 90N·m, along with unparalleled turning speed performance. The turret drum has highly efficient machining capabilities and an index time of 0.2 sec/1 step. By turning a single bolt the quick change tool holders can easily be unloaded and loaded. The conversational controls reduce the set up time and lower production costs making the Mazak ideal for small prototype quantities. The Mazak also has the ability to convert conversational CNC programs into traditional G-Code format that may easily be transferred to other Wolverine Machine CNC lathes. The ability to convert and transfer programs results in short set-up times further adding to economical costs for high and low volume jobs.

Due to the innovative linear guide, the Mazak can achieve higher accuracy than other lathes equipped with conventional hardened and ground sideways guides. The linear guide also produces a lower amount of friction and a smaller amount of heat is produced. Should you be interested in receiving a quote for this high-tech process, please contact us.
