Mazak SYNCREX Swiss-Style Machines Take Center Stage at IMTS

FLORENCE, Ky., September 20, 2022 – Mazak showcased the newest series within its ever-expanding machine tool technology portfolio at IMTS. During the show, the company demonstrated machines from its SYNCREX Swiss-style Series that encompasses models featuring seven, eight and nine-axis configurations and optimized for precision high-production of small parts.

The models at the show included the SYNCREX 25/8, 25/9X and the 38/9. These sliding headstock machines are all constructed on the Mazak High Damping Composite Casting (HDCC). This unique high rigidity base provides greater vibration damping characteristics, less thermal growth and greater part surface capabilities when compared to a cast iron base machine. 

The SYNCREX 25/8 and 25/9X machines each provide a maximum turning diameter of 1.0” (25mm), the SYNCREX 38/9 handles bar stock up to 1.5” (38mm). The SYNCREX “9X” models deliver added part processing flexibility as they are capable of full 5-axis contouring while using the B-axis tool post.

Mazak’s SYNCREX machines accommodate a maximum of 36 tools in a standard configuration: 20 static and 16 live. Mazak offers a full catalog of modular tool holders allowing their customers the tooling flexibility to meet their part requirements.
