Among the 19 machines in Mazak booth 338300 will be models from the company's Ez, INTEGREX Multi-Tasking, new SYNCREX Swiss-Style and NEO Series featuring live real-world production demonstrations. Mazak also will feature automation systems, its MPower complete customer care program and Mazak Capital Equipment Financing (MCEF) for one-stop factory-direct financing.

Mazak will feature the QT-Ez 8MY Multi-Tasking CNC Turning Center with an 8" chuck and integral-motor spindle that handles a wide range of materials, along with milling capability and Y-axis functionality for single set-up processing of diverse parts. In live demonstrations, the automation-ready QT-Ez 8MY will pair up with a cobot to spotlight flexibility and productivity in unattended machining.

"Mazak INTEGREX Multi-Tasking machines transform complex part production with single set-up convenience and performance for advanced machining," said a company spokesperson. "They unify the processing power of multiple machine tools for DONE IN ONE efficiency that easily accommodates automation and unattended versatility. At IMTS, Mazak's INTEGREX i-450H ST Multi-Tasking Center will show attendees how it delivers the combined processing power of a turning center and full-function machining center, with a second turning spindle and a lower turret with optional rotary tool capabilities to minimize fixtures, tools, handling and non-cut time."

Mazak's SYNCREX Series of Swiss-style machines are designed to bring enhanced performance and quality to higher volume small precision machined parts. SYNCREX machines come in four bar capacities ranging from 20 mm to 38 mm. The machines are available in 7-, 8- and 9-axis configurations. A 9-axis model with full B-axis contouring is also available. SYNCREX machines feature Mazak's new MAZATROL SmoothSt CNC Control that provides fast, easy job set-ups. Mazak Swiss Set-up Assist (MSSA) along with the Mazak Dynamic Chip Control (MDCC) features are designed to reduce set-up times and part production. Mazak will be highlighting both of these optional features at IMTS 2022.

Among its several next-generation NEO Series machines at IMTS, Mazak will showcase the HCN-6800 NEO HMC and the VARIAXIS i-800 NEO Machining Center. "NEO Series machines take the previous generation's performance to new levels of efficiency and ease of use through numerous upgrades. The machines sport fully redesigned enclosures, best-in-class standard and optional equipment and improvements throughout to provide fast, optimal solutions for an even-wider range of part-production applications," said the spokesperson.

The HCN 6800 NEO features upgrades to its spindle, table and magazine, including a new standard 43-tool drum-type magazine that reduces tool exchange times. For ease of maintenance, the machine incorporates hydraulic/motorized pallet changer mechanisms and an easier-to-access maintenance panel. A faster servo-driven ATC door design now also accommodates longer tools. As an option, Mazak offers a direct-drive motor table to provide fast indexing time and rotary scales for high-accuracy positioning.

"As an enhanced version of a popular Mazak 5-axis machine, the VARIAXIS i-800 NEO features a powerful CNC, faster machining cycle times, expanded workpiece capacities and more automation options," said the spokesperson. Equipped with Mazak's MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC, the machine provides functions that include the SMOOTH Machining Configuration (SMC) for process optimization with real-time operator control of a wide range of cutting parameters and Ai Thermal Shield for stable machining accuracy through smart compensation for heat displacement.

Every Mazak customer receives MPower, a comprehensive machine support program. At IMTS, Mazak will highlight how MPower provides single-source access to end-to-end support for the lifetime of every Mazak machine, including 24/7 phone support, onsite service, technical training and 97% same-day shipping of parts orders. Among the MPower features that Mazak will highlight at IMTS, Mazak On-Demand Learning (MODL) delivers in-person and online courses from beginner to advanced levels at Mazak's network of Technology and Technical Centers and through self-paced instruction.
