The Mazak FJV 5 Face-60/120 is a double-column (gantry-style) vertical machining center designed for high-precision, heavy-duty machining of medium-to-large components. Part of Mazak’s FJV 5 Face series, it is built for efficient 5-sided machining using an automatic angle head, allowing multiple faces of a workpiece to be machined in a single setup, significantly reducing handling and cycle times.
This model features a BT50 spindle with a standard speed of 10,000 RPM, offering strong torque and stability for machining materials such as steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The machine provides a large working envelope with travels of approximately 3,200 mm (X), 1,400 mm (Y), and 660 mm (Z), along with a table size of around 3,000 × 1,250 mm, making it suitable for large plates, structural parts, and industrial components.
A key advantage is its rigid double-column construction, which minimizes deflection and maintains accuracy during heavy cutting operations. The integrated angle head enables efficient machining of four side faces without repositioning the part. Additionally, Mazak’s MAZATROL Smooth CNC control simplifies programming for multi-surface machining. Overall, the FJV 5 Face-60/120 is engineered for high productivity, precision, and reduced setup time in demanding machining environments.

WHY BUY USED MAZAK FJV 5 FACE-60/120
Buying a used Mazak FJV 5 Face-60/120 is a highly practical choice for manufacturers needing large-part machining capability without the high capital investment of a new double-column machine. These machines are built with heavy-duty structures and high-quality components, allowing them to maintain accuracy and performance over long periods when properly maintained.
One of the biggest advantages is process efficiency. The machine’s ability to perform full 5-face machining in a single setup significantly reduces handling, improves geometric accuracy, and shortens overall production time. This is especially valuable in industries such as energy, aerospace, and heavy equipment manufacturing where large parts are common.
From a cost-performance perspective, used machines typically offer 40–70% savings compared to new models while still delivering high torque cutting capability and large working capacity. Machines with moderate cutting hours (10,000–20,000 hours) usually provide the best balance between cost and remaining life.
Cutting time is a critical factor. Machines with high hours (20,000+)—particularly those used in heavy steel applications—may require spindle rebuilds or guideway servicing. However, a well-maintained, lower-hour machine can still deliver near-new performance. With Mazak’s global support network and widely used MAZATROL control, integration and servicing remain relatively straightforward, making this model a strong long-term investment.
HOW MUCH DOES A USED MAZAK FJV 5 FACE-60/120COST?
The cost of a used Mazak FJV 5 Face-60/120 varies depending on age, configuration, condition, and most importantly, cutting hours and application type. As a mid-to-large double-column machining center, it is priced higher than smaller FJV models but remains significantly more affordable than new machines.
Machines manufactured before 2000 or early-generation equivalents typically range from $30,000 to $70,000. These machines often have high cutting hours (20,000–40,000+) and may require refurbishment, particularly in spindle assemblies and axis components.
Models from 2000–2010 generally fall between $70,000 and $160,000. This segment often provides the best value, especially for machines with 10,000–20,000 cutting hours and strong maintenance records. Machines equipped with automatic angle heads, larger tool magazines, or upgraded controls tend to command higher prices.
Newer machines from 2010–2025 typically range from $160,000 to $320,000+, depending on condition, features, and usage. Low-hour machines (under 10,000 cutting hours), particularly those used in lighter materials like aluminum, can achieve premium pricing due to reduced wear.
Ultimately, cutting time is more important than age. A newer machine with excessive usage may be less valuable than an older, well-maintained unit, making inspection, spindle condition, and service history critical factors in determining true market value.
