Yamazaki to stage 'EMO Encore' for UK buyers
UK buyers and specifiers of machine tools who were unable to attend the EMO exhibition can view and assess new Mazak machine tools at Yamazaki Machinery, Worcester, January 29-February 1.
The ability to mount turning tools, tailstock, steady rest attachment or special fixtures on the lower turret opens up numerous machining possibilities for delivering maximum productivity from a single machine tool.
The Integrex e-420H-ST II has upper turret axis travels of 845mm and 420mm (X and Y) complemented by a lower turret with axis travels of 232mm and 60mm (X and Y) and upper and lower Z-axis movements of 2088mm and 1893mm respectively.
Yamazaki Mazak told manufacturingtalk.com that the machine can meet almost any kind of production requirements.

These large and multiple axis movements are combined with powerful main and second spindles (4000 rev/min, 30kW), both equipped with C-axis, which is capable of the smallest of incremental movements.
For rotary tool applications the upper B-axis spindle is a 12,000 rev/min, rated at 22kW, while the lower rotary tool spindle is a 6000 rev/min, 5.5kW unit.
* Reducing manufacturing costs - this combination of machining capacity and power makes the Integrex e-420H-ST II a complete fusion of machining centre and turning centre to provide a machining platform capable of reducing manufacturing costs through improved productivity.
The Mazak e-machines fully embrace the Information Technology age and bring the idea of the 'intelligent machine tool' to reality.
The Mazatrol Matrix control has been developed with a number of intelligent functions that assist the operation of the machine and allow communication between the machine tool, control and the manufacturing/production system in operation within a factory.
These functions also provide both management and operator with a wide range of relevant production information and feedback.
For example, the e-tower, which is integral with the e-machine, provides the operator with, for example, set-up support and access to operating and maintenance manuals and work schedules.
Management, in turn, can download programs, scheduling data and component drawings, while receiving real-time information relating to machine and job status.
