Mazak Corp. offers its Multiplex W-200Y Multi-Tasking CNC turning center, which can be paired with a GL150 gantry loader/unloader for continues part flow. The factory-supplied GL150 gantry loader/unloader provides fast workpiece exchanges to achieve approximately 20% shorter load/unload times thanks to a new rack-and-pinion design that allows for simultaneous motion of doors, chuck confirmations and linear rail motion to reduce overall tack times.

Mazak Corp. offers its Kentucky-built Quick Turn 250MSY multitasking machine, which can be paired with GR100 gantry robot automation for continuous Done In One part production. The Quick Turn 250MSY features two turning spindles, milling capability and Y-axis off-centerline machining. Its main turning spindle headstock features a 10" chuck mounted on a 35-hp, 4,000-rpm integrated spindle motor that generates 343 ft.-lbs. of torque for heavy-duty metal removal.

Monaghan Tooling Group introduces their Mechanical Joining Tools, which join tubing to flanges and fittings, creating secure, leak-proof joints that withstand up to 20,000 lbs. of hydrostatic pressure. Superior to welded, brazed or crimped joints, mechanically joined parts will not leak, pull apart, or loosen due to pressure, vibration, or temperature changes.

The high-speed Mazak FJV-35/80 double-column vertical machining center offers high precision over extended periods of operation with enhanced performance, Intelligent Functions and rigid machine construction. Suitable for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, construction, die and mold, and heavy machine, the versatile FJV-35/80 accommodates up to 6,614 lbs. on a 88.19" x 29.53" work table.

Mazak Corp.'s HCR-5000 horizontal machining center is a 5-axis machine that provides efficient, high-speed machining of small and mid-sized aluminum components and allows for several automation options for increased output. Designed to provide the aerospace and semiconductor/high-tech industries and others with numerous technological innovations, the HCR-5000 offers, in addition to 5-axis machining, a range of high-speed spindle options, from a standard 12,000-rpm spindle up to a 30,000-rpm version, each of which feature an integral spindle/motor and core cooling that minimize thermal growth for higher accuracy. The machine’s auto toolchanger (ATC) features a standard 40-tool magazine with options for 80, 120 or 160 tools available to fit individual shops’ needs.

Mazak Corp.'s highly productive Integrex i-300ST multitask machine is available with the company’s spindle health monitoring system. As a revolutionary new tool powered by AI technology, the system monitors spindle health to help minimize unexpected machine downtime.

Mazak Corp.'s Integrex i-500 advanced multitask machine is the biggest model in the Integrex i Series family and offers manufacturers more options for machining large, complex workpieces. The machine is available with a 5.2” bore and a 15” chuck on the main horizontal turning spindle and is capable of C-axis indexing in 0.0001-degree increments and comes standard with a 40-hp (30 kW) integral spindle motor that provides a maximum spindle speed of 2,500 rpm.

Mazak Corp. offers the high-performance (HP) configuration of its versatile QTU-350 turning center. The Kentucky-built machine can be paired with a RoboJob TA200 automation package to further boost the productivity of this simple, but innovative machine.

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.
