Mazak Opens New Customer Solutions Center

As manufacturers continue to face shortages of skilled labor, Mazak helps them address the issue with the opening of its new Customer Solutions Center. The secure facility specializes in the development of production-ready, custom automation solutions that allow manufacturers to overcome existing labor issues while increasing production output.

"The new center allows us to streamline automation development and project management," said Dan Janka, President of Mazak Corporation. "This eliminates bottlenecks in design and timing during the construction of those custom solutions while keeping the experience all about the customer and their production needs."

The new customer-focused center is well equipped and provides a space for Mazak to set up custom automation cells as well as perform turn-key run-offs. Most importantly, the facility provides a secure location for customers who require that their parts and/or processes remain proprietary, such as those controlled by International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Mazak engineers will also use the facility as a private location to perform research studies for the development of new processes, options and machinery.

"Mazak's full portfolio of automation solutions help ensure process consistency, improve quality, help lower overall costs and reduce the risk of scrap," said a company spokesperson. "Automation ranges from simple bar feeders and overhead gantry systems to two-pallet changers, pallet pulls, load/unload robots and full palletized systems. Palletized systems can also include in-process measurement and surface scanning probes for part inspection and traceability."
