Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced the compact high-precision Nakamura-Tome MX-100 multitasking turning center, offering high productivity milling and turning for a wide array of part manufacture, including medical. A rigid construction, as well as advanced software, smart features and a 96-tool capacity, provide exceptional accuracy and productivity. The new machine tool is equipped with a powerful 15-hp upper tool spindle with 20,000 rpm and turning capability. A 8,000-rpm milling turret offers 12 tool stations with 24 indexing positions.

Now equipped with the fast and powerful Mazatrol SmoothX CNC is the Mazak VTC-800G-30S vertical traveling column machine.

Mazak Corp.'s family of hybrid multitask machining centers includes the VTC-300C FSW, which combines advanced milling capabilities with friction stir welding (FSW) technology. With a full traveling-column design, automatic toolchanger and powerful 40-taper spindle in addition to the FSW package, this machine helps shops achieve reduced lead times and greater part accuracy with less required capital equipment and floor space – all while enabling completely novel methods for processing parts with strong welds.

With its VC-500A/5X AM HWD, Mazak provides the benefits of hybrid multitasking hot wire deposition (HWD) part processing. With capabilities beyond conventional multitasking, the VC-500A/5X AM HWD reduces lead times and part costs, increases machining accuracy and part quality, while also providing even higher levels of productivity,
flexibility and profitability.

Mazak Corp. offers the VC-500 AM hybrid multitasking machine, which combines full 5-axis subtractive capability and additive technology to enhance product design, reduce time to market and cut R&D costs. Designed and manufactured in the Mazak iSmart Factory, the compact, cost-effective VC-500 AM brings together Mazak’s considerable expertise in fiber laser technology and additive manufacturing.

The versatile Variaxis i-800 machining center uses full, simultaneous 5-axis capabilities to perform multiple and complex curved-surface machining on large, heavy workpieces in single setups. The Variaxis i-800 reduces production lead times, improves machining accuracy and lowers operating expenses. Furthermore, it can tackle a wide range of applications, from heavy-duty cutting to high-speed cutting of aluminum and other nonferrous materials.

Mazak Corp. offers the SQR-250 turning center for the fast, accurate production of long shaft or chucked workpieces. The machine features a powerful single spindle with two 45-degree opposed-wedge style turrets that cut simultaneously to slash cycle times and provide balanced cutting.

Mazak Corp.'s Quick Turn 550MY CNC turning center with multitasking combines advanced technology, productivity and value to deliver exceptional performance for shops large and small. As an MY configuration machine, the Quick Turn 550MY features milling capabilities and Y-axis functionality along with a standard through-hole chuck package to process a wide range of medium or larger-diameter parts in single setups.

Mazak Corp. offers the Integrex i-100 Bartac-S multitask machine, which incorporates enhanced CNC technology and high-speed servo systems to offer high levels of productivity when processing small high-precision parts in
single setups, as well as machining bar material up to 4" in diameter.

Mazak Corp.'s Quick Turn 450 CNC turning center combines advanced technology, productivity and value to deliver exceptional part processing for shops large and small. Additionally, Mazak now offers the machine with an optional, powerful 60-hp integral motor main spindle.
