Mazak Corporation has unveiled its new INTEGREX i-400AM (additive manufacturing) HYBRID multitasking machine. The company reported that, as a fusion of additive technology and Mazak's most advanced multitasking capabilities, the machine will significantly reduce part cycle times while providing high-efficiency, Done-In-One processing.
"As a turn-key system, the INTEGREX i-400AM offers manufacturers a new, innovative alternative to conventional processing in terms of part design and machining," said a company spokesperson. "The technology is especially well suited for small lot production of very difficult-to-cut materials such as those used in the aerospace, energy and medical industries. With the additive capability, manufacturers can easily generate/clad near net shape component features then quickly complete them with high-precision finish machining operations - as well as laser mark parts if needed."
In operation, the INTEGREX i-400AM melts metal powder using fiber laser heat. Cladding heads (additive manufacturing nozzles) apply the molten material layer by layer, each of which solidifies as the desired shape grows. Plus, the system can join different types of metals to one another, a capability beneficial in the efficient repair of existing worn or damaged components, such as aerospace turbine blades.
Cladding heads store in the INTEGREX i-400AM's tool magazine, and the standard automatic tool changer loads them into the machine's milling turret. Mazak offers two types of cladding heads: high speed or high accuracy. Users select the appropriate head based on the intended process and the particular metal powder to be used.
On the multitasking machine side, the INTEGREX i-400AM provides full 5-axis capability to process prismatic parts from solid billets or castings (chucked or bar fed), round parts, highly contoured parts and now those with features built using additive technology. The machine provides -30/+210° B-axis movement in its milling spindle, full C-axis contouring with its turning spindle and an NC tailstock that is fully programmable.
