Mazak showcased its ongoing commitment to continuous innovation in machine tool technology at IMTS 2024, with solutions designed to help machine shops overcome manufacturing challenges and maintain their profitability, and featured live demonstrations processing real-world industry-specific parts.
As the pioneer in multi-tasking technology, Mazak featured machines from their unrivalled Integrex Series along with turning centers with multi-tasking capability at IMTS 2024.
Mazak multi-tasking allows for DONE IN ONE single-setup part production, and as a result, the machines improve part quality, reduce work-in-progress and significantly shorten production lead times, while reducing overall part costs.
In addition to live machine demonstrations, visitors learned more about the DONE IN ONE concept, discovered new applications for multi-tasking and how that technology increases production capacity, processing flexibility, output and profitability with fewer machine tools.
Mazak Integrex i-100H ST with Gantry Loader
The Mazak Integrex i-100H ST multi-tasking center delivers the highest level of single-setup part-production versatility of a high-powered turning center and full-function machining center combined.
The Mazak Integrex i-100H ST gives shops the ability to simultaneously machine with two tools using a 6,000 rpm second turning spindle (S) for DONE IN ONE machining and a lower turret (T) with optional rotary tool capability. MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC gives the Mazak Integrex i-1OOH ST standard capability for specialized operations like crank shaft inclined drilling or gear skiving.
The optional Gantry Loader (GL) features a compact design that lowers machine height and reduces loading/unloading time. Install the part conveyor on either the right or left side of the machine and even integrate it with multiple machines.
Mazak Integrex i-450H ST AG
The Mazak Integrex i-450H ST AG HYBRID multi-tasking machine delivers maximum versatility and throughput for medium to large complex parts.
The Mazak Integrex i-450H ST AG features a second turning spindle (S) for DONE IN ONE machining, a lower turret (T) to minimize fixtures, tools and noncut time, and the HYBRID AUTO GEAR (AG) package with a full range of SMOOTH TECHNOLOGY for DONE IN ONE gear production.
The machine accommodates parts up to 670 mm diameter with full five-axis capability for processing prismatic parts from solid blocks or castings (chucked or bar fed work), round parts or sculptured parts such as aerospace components.
Mazak Integrex i-500
The Mazak Integrex i-500 multi-tasking machine combines the capabilities of a high-powered turning center with those of a full-function machining center for versatile single-setup part production.
The Mazak Integrex i-500 offers the ease of operation and compact design of the Integrex i series with a large machining area equivalent to that of the Integrex e-H series.
With MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC, the Mazak Integrex i-500 can perform standard specialized operations such as crank shaft inclined drilling or gear skiving.
The machine is available in a wide variety of specifications to meet any production requirement.
Mazak QTE-100MSY SG with Gantry Loader
Mazak's QTE-100MSY SG CNC turning center provides exceptional value and performance in a small footprint for machine shops of all sizes.
With a standard six-inch through-hole chuck and a second spindle equipped with a five-inch chuck, the Mazak QTE-100MSY SG can process a wide variety of parts. For additional multi-tasking performance, the machine features +/- 50 mm Y-axis off-center milling.
The machine comes equipped with the new SmoothEz CNC that provides MAZATROL conversational programming as well as G-Code programming. For automated applications, the machine can be outfitted with various option such as automatic door, bar feeder and parts catcher.
Mazak Quick Turn 250MSY
The Mazak Quick Turn 250MSY CNC turning center with multi-tasking capability delivers significant reductions in production lead times and costs. The machine features milling and Y-axis capability, a direct-drive turret and rotary tool milling spindle as well as a second turning spindle for true DONE IN ONE part processing.
The Mazak Quick Turn 250MSY features milling and Y-axis capability as well as a second turning spindle to process parts in DONE IN ONE operations. The direct-drive turret features increased rpm and eliminates the use of belts for improved part surface finishes and reduced maintenance.
