MAZAK NEXUS QTN 350II / 1500
USED MAZAK NEXUS QTN 350II / 1500
The MAZAK NEXUS QTN 350II / 1500 is a heavy-duty 2-axis CNC Turning Center engineered for machining long shafts, large-diameter workpieces, and precision production components. Designed by Yamazaki Mazak, this machine combines a rigid slant-bed construction, high-torque spindle, long-bed configuration, and the advanced MAZATROL Matrix CNC Control to deliver exceptional turning performance, accuracy, and reliability. The QTN 350II / 1500 is widely used in oil & gas, aerospace, heavy equipment, power generation, automotive, and industrial manufacturing where long-part machining and consistent production quality are essential.
The machine features a maximum turning diameter of approximately 16.5 inches (420 mm) and a maximum machining length of 60 inches (1,500 mm), making it ideal for machining hydraulic cylinders, drive shafts, rollers, pump shafts, valve components, and other long precision parts. Its rigid one-piece cast-iron bed minimizes vibration during heavy roughing and finishing operations, while precision box guideways provide excellent rigidity and repeatability. Whether machining carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, cast iron, or exotic materials, the MAZAK NEXUS QTN 350II / 1500 consistently produces outstanding surface finishes and tight dimensional tolerances.
Powering the machine is a 40 HP (30 HP continuous), 3,300 RPM spindle with an A2-11 spindle nose and a 4.4-inch spindle bore, allowing heavy-duty cutting of large bar stock and chucked components. The machine includes a 12-station drum turret with rapid indexing and high rapid traverse rates for reduced cycle times. Many used machines are equipped with valuable factory-installed options such as tailstock, high-pressure coolant, chip conveyor, bar feeder, parts catcher, steady rest, and Mazatrol Matrix conversational programming, increasing both versatility and production efficiency.
The Mazatrol Matrix Control combines conversational programming with full EIA/ISO G-code capability, allowing shops to quickly create programs while maintaining compatibility with complex CAD/CAM workflows. Its intuitive interface, fast processing speed, and proven reliability have made the QTN 350II / 1500 one of Mazak’s most respected large-frame turning centers.
