10,000 sales underlines Mazak’s one-hit machining success
The Machinery Area of Southern Manufacturing is a popular destination for many visitors keen to see the latest machine tools cutting metal. At the show this year, visitors can witness the latest generation of the Yamazaki Mazak Integrex multi-tasking CNC machine going though its paces. Since its inception over 10,000 have been sold around the world emphasising how the concept of one-hit machining has come to dominate the production of complex components.
The machine is capable of completing all turning and machining operations to take raw material to a finished part in a single set-up on one machine. The main spindle is powered by a 22 kW motor which provides a maximum speed of 5,000 rev/min. The milling and drilling spindle has an increased output of 22 kW and has a 12,000 rev/min maximum speed for high speed metal removal.
