Once again, it’s time for the manufacturing world to converge on Chicago for IMTS, North America’s largest trade show. Mazak’s presence at IMTS 2018 includes so much advanced technology, we need two booths to showcase it. Along with Booth #338300 in the South Hall, you’ll also find us in Booth #432000 in the West Hall.
West Hall (Booth #432000)
Ready for the HYBRID Multi-Tasking revolution? Come see machines that combine subtractive and additive processes – including hot wire deposition and laser metal deposition – to provide true DONE IN ONE® manufacturing capability.
See the highly productive VC-500A/5X AM HWD Multi-Tasking machine with 5-axis milling capabilities, which also incorporates HOT WIRE additive manufacturing developed collaboratively with Lincoln Electric, a designer/developer/manufacturer of arc welding technologies. This additive technology can combine dissimilar metals as it generates exceptionally precise sealing coatings and near-net shape part features.
Also in our West Hall booth, watch the INTEGREX i-400 AM Multi-Tasking machine combine additive and subtractive technologies, using its laser metal deposition capability to generate near-net shape component features and then finish them with high-precision machining.
