Mazak Introduces New INTEGREX j-Series NEO Machines
Published March 31, 2025 - Mazak continues to expand its NEO Series of machines with the new INTEGREX j-200 and j-200S NEO models. The horizontal Multi-Tasking machines feature single and twin-turning spindle versions with milling spindles to significantly shorten cycle times and provide single-setup part processing. As part of the NEO Series, the machines combine advanced technology and outstanding value with high-performance productivity.
INTEGREX j-200 and j-200S NEO advanced technology encompasses enhancements that include higher-torque integral spindle technology for maximum material removal, specifications for faster spindle rpm,positioning accuracy and higher torque ratings along with expanded tool magazine capacities and longer tool lengths. Added heat displacement compensation equipment provides stable machining accuracy, increased operating efficiency and reduced power consumption.
High-performance specifications for the new INTEGREX j-Series NEOs offer shops increased spindle torque ratings of 20Hp/240ft-Lbs (15kW/326Nm) for main spindles, 20Hp/123ft-lbs (15/kW/167Nm) for second spindles and 25Hp/42ft-lbs (18.5kW/57.3Nm) for B-axis milling spindles that provide 0.0001-degree indexing positioning. Tool magazines now accommodate up to 72-tools and allow for maximum tool lengths up to 9.8in (250mm).
For heat compensation, Mazak’s Ai Thermal Shield on the new machines suppresses changes in the cutting-edge position based on spindle speed and temperature of the machine. The function stabilizes continuous machining accuracy through meticulous machine control, considering temperature changes, machine position, coolant ON/OFF and other factors. New Ai algorithm calculations improve the accuracy of compensation, and with accumulated and learned data from subsequent measurements, thermal displacement compensation is optimized for each machining environment for stable machining accuracy.
