USED OKUMA MULTUS B400II

The Okuma MULTUS B400II is a large-capacity, high-performance multi-tasking CNC machine designed to combine turning, milling, drilling, and material handling into a single platform. As one of the larger models in Okuma’s MULTUS B-series, it is built for machining medium to large, complex components with high precision and reduced setup time. The machine integrates lathe and machining center capabilities, allowing full part completion in one setup, which significantly improves productivity and accuracy.

It features a 225° B-axis milling head with a high-speed milling spindle reaching approximately 6,000 rpm (optional higher speeds), enabling advanced multi-axis machining. The machine supports a maximum turning diameter of around 710 mm and a turning length of up to 1,500–2,000 mm depending on configuration, making it suitable for industries such as aerospace, oil & gas, and heavy engineering.

The MULTUS B400II includes an automatic tool changer with capacities ranging from 20 to 120 tools and offers optional sub-spindle (W configuration) for complete part machining. Equipped with Okuma’s OSP-P500 control and Thermo-Friendly Concept, it ensures stable accuracy and ease of operation. Overall, the machine is designed for high-mix, complex production environments requiring flexibility, precision, and reduced cycle times.

WHY BUY USED OKUMA MULTUS B400II

Buying a used Okuma MULTUS B400II is a strong investment for manufacturers that require large-part multi-tasking capability while controlling capital costs. These machines are engineered with heavy-duty construction, advanced thermal stability systems, and high-end controls, allowing them to maintain precision even after extended use in demanding production environments.

Cutting time (spindle hours) is one of the most critical factors when evaluating a used unit. Machines with low cutting hours—typically under 5,000–7,000 hours—are considered lightly used and can perform close to new condition. Units with moderate usage (7,000–18,000 hours) remain reliable for most applications if properly maintained. Machines with higher cutting hours (18,000–25,000+ hours) may require servicing of key components such as the milling spindle, B-axis head, or drive systems, but they can still provide strong value for less intensive production work.

One of the biggest advantages of the MULTUS B400II is its ability to consolidate multiple operations into a single setup. Even older machines retain features such as B-axis milling, Y-axis movement, and optional sub-spindle, enabling full part completion without additional machines. This reduces labor, setup time, and work-in-progress inventory.

For shops handling large, complex parts, a used MULTUS B400II offers premium capability, flexibility, and productivity at a significantly reduced investment.

HOW MUCH DOES A USED OKUMA MULTUS B400II COST?

The cost of a used Okuma MULTUS B400II varies depending on manufacturing year, configuration, condition, and especially cutting time. Since the model has been available since the 2010s, pricing is typically segmented by age and usage rather than pre-2000 categories.

For early-generation machines (2010–2014), prices generally range from $100,000 to $180,000. These machines often have higher cutting hours (12,000–25,000+) and may require refurbishment, but they still offer full multi-tasking capability for large components.

Machines built between 2015 and 2020 typically fall in the $180,000 to $300,000 range. These represent the most active used market segment and usually include moderate cutting hours (6,000–15,000), along with updated controls and improved automation compatibility.

For newer machines from 2020 to 2025, prices can range from $300,000 to $500,000 or more depending on configuration, tooling packages, and automation systems. These machines generally have low cutting hours (under 5,000) and are close to new condition.

Cutting time plays a major role in pricing—machines with lower spindle hours command significantly higher values regardless of age. Buyers should also evaluate features such as sub-spindle, tool capacity, and automation integration to determine the true overall investment and long-term return.
