CNC Machining Center offers multi-tasking for small parts.
Press Release Summary:
Designed to handle everything from bar-fed turning to full 5-axis machining, Integrex 100-IV ST is equipped with dual opposed spindles for turning and C-axis control. It can machine parts complete by exchanging them between spindles for front-and-back processing. Containing 7.5 hp milling spindle, rotating B-axis can position in increments of 0.0001° or under continuous CNC operation. Standard spindle speed is 12,000 rpm with optional capacity of 20,000 rpm.

Multi-Tasking Excellence For Small Parts: Mazak's New Integrex 100-IV ST
(FLORENCE, KENTUCKY) -- The notion that multi-tasking is only for bigger operations with hefty parts is put to rest with the introduction of Mazak's Integrex 100-IV ST. This small workhorse can handle everything from bar-fed turning to full 5-axis machining, offering the benefits of single setup, slashed lead times, reduced fixturing, and high precision to every shop manufacturing smaller components.
Equipped with dual opposed spindles for turning and C-axis control, the Integrex
100-IV ST can machine parts complete by exchanging them between spindles for front-and-back processing. You can also machine on each spindle simultaneously and turn with the upper and lower turning tools concurrently.
In addition, Integrex 100-IV ST is a full 5-axis machining center with travels of X=16.14", Y=5.5", Z=31.69", B=225°, and C=360°. The B-axis consists of a rotating axis containing a 7.5 HP milling spindle. It can position in increments of 0.0001° or under continuous CNC operation. Standard spindle speed is 12000 RPM with optional capacity of 20000 RPM. Twenty or 40-tool magazines are available.
The right and left horizontal spindles are 15 HP for turning, plus continuous C-axis control. The chuck size is 6" with a top turning speed of 6000 RPM. The ST model also features a 9-tool secondary lower turret for fixed tooling, allowing simultaneous operations on a single part or on two chucked parts.
Also new on the Integrex 100-IV ST is the Mazatrol Matrix CNC. Matrix addresses the inter-relationship between improved programming functions, whether conversational on-machine or off-line, and the industry's most advanced hardware. The goals it achieves for manufacturers include higher productivity and precision, improved safety, and ease of operation.
Software and hardware advances in the Mazatrol Matrix include powerful internal computing speed to support 16 million pulse encoders on each linear axis for sub-micron resolution and new servo control technology that minimizes vibration. Powering these advances is a new 64-bit twin-engine CPU that produces federates for machining complex surfaces two times faster than the previous CNC control.
New software capabilities make the Mazatrol Matrix easier and safer to program and operate. A unique Voice Advisor verbally informs operators of machine alarms and switch settings in manual operation. Enhanced visual 3D simulations aid the operator in identifying and correcting any interference conditions and running part program simulations while the machine is operating.
The largest machine tool builder in the world, Mazak is unsurpassed in continually providing machine-tool and production technologies that improve manufacturing processes for companies of all sizes. More information is available by visiting www.mazakusa.com.
