Mazak VCN 410B-II
Manufacturer specifications, what it is built to do, the years we have seen them listed, what tooling fits, and what to check on one. MTE also buys them outright.
What the Mazak VCN 410B-II is
The Mazak VCN 410B-II is a CNC vertical machining center — a machine for milling, drilling and tapping on a fixed table with a vertical spindle — the general-purpose workhorse of most shops. The manufacturer publishes a x-axis travel of 30.00 in / 762 mm.
What it is built to do
From the figures the manufacturer publishes, a Mazak VCN 410B-II suits:
- 40 tooling at up to 12000 rpm
Selling a used Mazak VCN 410B-II
Mazak's 2014 page for the VERTICAL CENTER NEXUS 410B-II says the machine also came in a High-Speed (HS) build. The spindle figures on that page, a top speed of 12000 rpm with 15.0 hp rated for 30 minutes, are printed against the plain model name. So read the whole model name off the nameplate first, and if HS is part of it, describe the spindle from the plate and not from those page figures.
The control Mazak names for this model is the Mazatrol Matrix Nexus CNC, and the page says it takes conversational or EIA programming. Note the control name and software version the screen shows, and say which of the two kinds of program the shop has been writing. If saved programs and tool data are meant to go with the machine, back them up now and list how many there are.
In the notes Mazak gives for the whole NEXUS vertical series, the magazine holds 30 tools and 48 tools is an option. The 410B-II's own table shows 30. Count the pockets on the carousel before writing the description, and state in its first line whether this unit has the standard 30 or the optional 48. Note as well how many of those pockets hold a toolholder that is part of the sale.
Five Intelligent Machine functions are named on the 2014 page: Intelligent Maintenance Support (IMS), Intelligent Thermal Shield (ITS), Intelligent Safety Shield (ISS), Active Vibration Control (AVC) and Mazak Voice Advisor (MVA). Look for each one on the control and write down the ones this unit shows, so the listing names what is on the machine instead of repeating Mazak's list.
Robots come up twice on the page. The machine notes mention articulated robots for process automation, and the series notes mention them for load and unload. If a robot or a robot interface was fitted to this unit later, record its make and model and whether it stays with the machine. Twin-Table and two-pallet builds appear in the series notes as well, but the series list gives the 530C-II TT its own name, so call a 410B-II a pallet machine only if a changer was really fitted.
On the buyer side, the page gives 30.00 in of X travel, 16.14 in of Y and 20.08 in of Z over a table 43.310 in long. Mazak lists its Mx Roller Guide on all axes and a control that swings for viewing. Its series notes mention standard, high-speed and high-torque spindles and CAT 40 and CAT 50 versions; this model's own table gives a 40 taper.

What fits a Mazak VCN 410B-II
Each of these follows from a published specification above, which is named beside it.
40-taper toolholders
This is a 40-taper spindle — the 7:24 steep taper that CAT-40, BT-40 and DIN 69871 (SK-40) holders all share. They share the taper and nothing else that matters: the retention knob and the flange form differ between those standards, so holders do not swap between them without changing pull studs. Knowing which standard a machine was tooled for is worth doing before the holders are packed.

What years the Mazak VCN 410B-II was built
Across the units we have tracked, build years run from 2007 to 2012. Observed across 25 marketplaces, not a manufacturer build record. The manufacturer specifies Matrix Nexus, so a unit on an older control is an early one or a retrofit.
Mazak VCN 410B-II machines on the market now
We track listings across 25 used-machinery marketplaces, and every competitor in this market is one of them, so this is a view none of them can produce for themselves. Right now there are 5 units of this exact designation on the market, drawn from 4 independent sources, spanning model years 2007 to 2012. A seller is competing with those units, which is why condition, tooling and control generation decide the number.
We count only listings whose model is spelled as this machine’s own designation. Near spellings that may be a different variant are excluded rather than counted, so this is a floor on what is out there, not a total.
What affects the value of a used Mazak VCN 410B-II
- Control. The manufacturer specifies Matrix Nexus.
- Build year. The units we tracked were built from 2007 to 2012, across 4 model years.
- Against the published figures. The manufacturer gives max spindle speed 12000 rpm, spindle motor power 15.0 hp / 11 kw, tool capacity 30 and X-axis travel 30.00 in / 762 mm.
What to check on a Mazak VCN 410B-II
The same list whichever side of the deal you are on.
- Spindle at 12000 rpm. Mazak's table gives a 40 taper spindle with a top speed of 12000 rpm, driven by a 15.0 hp motor at its 30 minute figure. Run it up to the top speed the control allows, listen to the spindle bearings while it runs there, and write that speed beside the plate model.
- ITS and AVC on the control. Mazak describes ITS as its own heat displacement compensation system, and AVC as a function that holds down vibration for high-speed cutting and longer tool life. Open the screen for each one on the control, record whether it is switched on, and add both to the option list if they are there.
- What the IMS screen reports. IMS is the function Mazak says gives information for preventive maintenance. Photograph what its screen reports and keep the pictures with the papers the buyer receives.
- Roller guides on every axis. Mazak fitted its Mx Roller Guide to all axes of this model. Jog X through its full 30.00 in, then Y and Z, at a slow feed, and note any noise, catch or alarm along the way.
- ISS and the voice prompts. According to Mazak, ISS covers safe running during setup and manual work, and MVA gives spoken support for setup. Do a short setup in manual mode and note whether both respond.
- Every pocket of the carousel. The table lists 30 tools for this model. Bring the pockets round to the changer one after another, note any change that stalls or alarms, and tally the toolholders included in the sale.
- Measure the table width. The 2014 table prints the table width as 16.140 in next to 430 mm, and those two figures do not match, since 16.14 in is about 410 mm. Put a tape across the table and give the measured width in the description.
