Multitasking and Productivity Combinations



Mazak will debut several new machines, including the INTEGREX j-200S Multitasking machine that is designed to bring precision and throughput to the production of complex medium-sized parts.

Inside the Discover More With Mazak booth S-8300 at IMTS 2014, Mazak will demonstrate 21 advanced machine tools cutting parts for industries that include aerospace, automotive, energy and medical. Among the machines that will be seen by the public for the first time include the HORIZONTAL CENTER UNIVERSAL 4000 and 5000, INTEGREX j-200S, INTEGREX e-1600-V10S, QUICK TURN UNIVERSAL and 300 MY, QUICK TURN UNIVERSAL S-220 MY.

According to the company, the new high-value, highly productive HORIZONTAL CENTER UNIVERSAL 4000 machining center features a 15.75" square pallet and can produce precision parts up to 25" in diameter and 35" high. The machine also meets various production requirements through a variety of options, including 12,000 and 20,000-RPM spindle speeds; 40, 80 and 120-tool magazines; and either an NC-positioning or NC-rotary table.

"Designed with high-volume, low-mix shops in mind, the new HORIZONTAL CENTER UNIVERSAL 5000 machining center. It features a 19.69" square pallet and meets a variety of different production requirements through its various options, including 12,000 and 20,000-RPM spindle speeds; 40, 80 and 120-tool magazines; and either an NC-positioning or NC-rotary table," said a company spokesperson.

The new INTEGREX j-200S Multi-Tasking machine features a main 5,000-RPM turning spindle, 12,000-RPM milling spindle and a second turning spindle for Done-In-One capabilities, meaning it can complete machining in single setups.

Following its IMTS debut, the new INTEGREX e-1600-V10S completes all machining operations in a single setup, including turning, milling, boring, drilling and more, via a powerful turning spindle, tilting B-axis for 5-axis machining, either a high-speed or high-torque milling spindle and a wide selection of tool storage capacities.

"The new, highly versatile QUICK TURN UNIVERSAL 300 MY turning center with a 3" bar capacity is perfect for job shops looking to cost effectively add advanced multitasking and automation into their operations. Featuring milling and Y-axis capabilities, the machine can process parts made from aluminum, steel, cast iron and alloys and more in single setups," said the spokesperson.

According to the company, through its turning, milling and off centerline machining capabilities, the new QUICK TURN UNIVERSAL S-220 MY brings productivity to job shops by processing precision parts in single setups. Its headstock features an 8" chuck and 2.5" diameter bar capacity mounted on a 6,000-RPM turning spindle.

Mazak will also pair several of the machines it has on display with different types of automation, including twin-pallet changers, gantry loaders, an articulated robot cell and the company's exclusive PALLETECH Automation System, to show attendees how these add-on solutions boost productivity and profitability as well as provide a higher level of part consistency.

Furthermore, Mazak will offer a series of multi-media presentations to spotlight the new machines engineered for large part production, which are too big for the IMTS show floor.

The digital manufacturing products the company will spotlight inside its booth include factory simulation software designed to help manufacturers visualize how Mazak machine tools and the Mazak PALLETECH Automation System, when paired together in the right combination, can greatly streamline operations.

The MTConnect open-source, royalty-free manufacturing protocol will also be featured inside the booth. Not only will booth visitors learn the basics of MTConnect and how it exists to set the standard communication method for retrieving data from manufacturing equipment, but also how Mazak actively supports MTConnect. And using its Kentucky factory as an example, Mazak will show real-time monitoring of its manufacturing operations using the MTConnect open communications protocol inside its IMTS booth.
