Mazak’s DISCOVER 2021 Event Premieres New Technologies, Facility Expansions

FLORENCE, Ky., November 4, 2021 – More than 1,500 attendees from across North America attended Mazak Corporation’s DISCOVER 2021 event, as the company premiered its new SYNCREX Series of Swiss-style machines and presented its latest campus expansion to support these new machine tools. The event, held at Mazak’s North American Headquarters in Florence, Kentucky, from October 25-29, featured a wide variety of technologies, insights from leading industry experts and tours of the company’s facilities, including 32,000 sq. ft. of new production and aftermarket parts warehousing to accommodate Kentucky production of the new SYNCREX Series.

In addition to the introduction of the new SYNCREX Swiss-style series of machines, attendees also saw numerous North American machine premieres at DISCOVER. The Kentucky campus will accommodate manufacturing and parts supply for SYNCREX, designed for high-volume production of small, precise parts. Among the 25 machines under power at DISCOVER, other debuts included the first in-person North American showing of the compact Mazak Ez Series. Designed to support job shops, the Ez series offers Mazak quality and performance at an affordable pricepoint. Additionally, the company debuted its INTEGREX i-H Series of Multi-Tasking machines with the new MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve efficiency and precision.

High attendance and new-customer interest in Mazak technologies attest to the strong momentum in the manufacturing industry, with more than 25% of DISCOVER 2021 attendees being new to Mazak. Customers crowded around the Mazak Ez Series and SYNCREX Swiss-type machines at the event, attracted to the barrier-dropping price of the Ez Series and the addition of Swiss-style machining to the Mazak lineup. “We knew that these machines filled important needs for job shops and manufacturers in industries from high tech to transportation,” said Dan Janka, president of Mazak Corporation. “We continue to expand our product lines and our production capacities to meet the surge in demand that’s giving manufacturers new competitive opportunities.”
