Mazak spotlights five-axis machining

Yamazaki Mazak (stand J220) will be exhibiting its Integrex i-400S multi-tasking machining centre, which features a newly designed 1500 mm machining bed, offering higher performance machining and greater workpiece capacity than any other multi-tasking machines in its size range, says the company.

At the heart of the machine is a 30 kW, 3300 rpm main spindle, supported by a 26 kW 4000 rpm second spindle, which combine to machine workpieces up to 658 mm in diameter and 1519 mm in length.
The Integrex i-400S is equipped with the company’s SmoothX CNC, which not only contributes to improved cycle times, but can reduce programming and set-up times, it is claimed. Alan Mucklow, managing director UK and Ireland sales division at Yamazaki Mazak, says: “Our Integrex i-400S combines the capabilities of a high-powered turning centre and full-function machining centre to produce a range of complex parts, from fully prismatic to round or highly contoured components, in a single set-up. The i-400S can be used across small batch prototype work, in addition to volume production.”
