Established in 1982 and located in Newcastle Australia, Melvelle Equipment Corp is a second generation, Australian owned family business that manufactures specialised rail maintenance equipment.
In manufacturing, the accuracy of every cut depends on using the correct tool and entering the proper data for it. Human intervention adds uncertainty to machining processes with every manual entry of setup information. That uncertainty disappears, however, when software enables digital twins to enter the picture through direct CAM system integration, enabling shops to program parts offline with access to all the details of real-time machine setups and optimization.
Spinal surgery is a complicated procedure requiring an extensive and costly support network. Anatomics’ SpineBox method of pre-planning surgery and additive manufacturing of customized medical devices has the potential to realize significant time and cost benefits for the healthcare system. The streamlined procedure and solution not only improve the patient outcomes, they also reduce the risk of infection, as well as the strain on central sterile services departments (CSSD).
A Melbourne based probiotic manufacturer required a robotic automation solution to palletise product inside their cold room store operating at a temperature of around 2°C.
Losma Darwin is a range of centrifugal filters for cleaning air containing oil mists, micro-mists and smokes produced when using coolants (emulsion or neat oil).
The exceptionally productive 5-axis HCR-5000 horizontal machining center provides industries ranging from aerospace to medical with numerous technological innovations to improve small to mid-sized component machining.

The Mazak FT-150 Fiber tube-cutting laser has been designed for high-speed cutting and reduced non-cutting process to improve cycle times for small to medium diameter tubes. The result is superior productivity with high throughput.
PWR Advanced Cooling Technology is an Australian company, based in Ormeau Queensland, recognised as a world leader in the design and the production of water, oil and forced induction air cooling solutions for elite motorsports, working with teams in leading race categories such as Formula One, Moto GP, NASCAR, V8 Supercars, DTM, IndyCar, WRC to name a few.
Mazak’s brand-new SmoothAi CNC uses high-tech data sharing to avoid entry errors and cut setup time. Imagine how much of an impact that level of precision could make on your workflow.
Some manufacturers prefer to simplify the machine tool acquisition process by prioritising value – but this often comes at the cost of performance. For the highest return on investment, it is important to find a balance between performance and value. While this seems more daunting than comparing sticker prices, minimising lifetime costs makes it significantly easier to keep up with technological advances and to grow business.
The Mazak Variaxis i-700 features DONE-IN-ONE processing of complex workpieces up to Ø850 mm, combining both 5-Axis milling and turning capability in a single set-up. Mazak’s Multi Pallet Pool (MPP) offers high-speed pallet transfer and extended unmanned lights out running.
Since 1946, John Hart Pty Ltd has been a leader in supplying Australian manufacturers with the most innovative and advanced manufacturing technologies. Representing leading global brands such as Mazak and Fanuc, John Hart has been at the forefront of Machine Tool and Automation technology for decades.
The Mazak HCN-5000 horizontal machining center offers customers outstanding value with high performance and high productivity for achieving maximum performance when working with virtually any type of material. Mazak’s Multi Pallet Pool offers high-speed pallet transfer and extended unmanned lights out running.
Global Manufacturing Group (GMG) has recently made significant investments in their productivity, adding three new Mazak CNC machines to their already impressive machine shop.
A popular family-owned wine company from NSW approached John Hart Automation to implement a robotic automation system into their cask filling and packaging line.
The reduction of long lead times cannot be achieved by simply reducing machining cycle times. Shaving seconds off a part’s in-cut time is nothing compared to eliminating entire steps in the process, especially time-consuming tasks that require manual intervention.
