Florence, Kentucky, April 14, 2011 - The continued upswing in business in the Midwest has spurred plans for expansion at Mazak's Midwest Headquarters and Technology Center located in Schaumburg, Illinois.
The expansion represents Mazak's continuous investment in American manufacturing and coincides with other recent investments, including a new facility in Houston and production expansion at its manufacturing campus in Florence, Kentucky, to meet customer demand.
"The vibrant manufacturing market and our long-term commitment to customers in the Midwest convinced us to accelerate our expansion plans of our Technology Center in Illinois," said Brian Papke, president of Mazak Corporation. "In line with our new Southwest Headquarters and Technology Center in Houston and a new $9 million investment in our Kentucky plant, the goal of the Midwest expansion is to continuously serve our customers with solutions for improved manufacturing productivity to competitiveness of North American manufacturing."
Mazak plans to move quickly on the Midwest expansion project, with a grand opening targeted for April 2012. The expanded facility will feature a new auditorium space, more room for seminars, and a spacious area for customer turnkey projects and test cuts, as well as expanded machine tool technology demonstration facilities.
The company will keep customers up to date on the latest details of this and future investments via its social media outlets and website.
