Manufacturing today is fast-paced — every minute of production affects the bottom line. To be competitive shops must achieve efficient use of leading edge technology backed by comprehensive service and support that ensures machines are performing at their best. Operators must also be well-trained so that they can optimize each machine’s capabilities.
At Mazak, one of the ways we support our customers is through our network of Technology Centers strategically located across North America. In addition to our National Technology Center in Florence, Kentucky, we have centers in: Schaumburg, Illinois; Houston, Texas; Suwanee, Georgia; Gardenia, California; Windsor Locks, Connecticut; Cambridge, Ontario; and Apodaca Nuevo León, Mexico. Plus, in February, we opened a Technical Center in Dallas to provide more localized support to customers in Northern Texas. Through this extensive network, we bring a variety of services close to your shop, including:
Advanced application support
Our expert applications engineers will help you optimize part-production processes and create effective manufacturing solutions. We do this by collaborating with our tooling, workholding, automation and software partners to develop turnkey manufacturing solutions. We can also run test cuts of your parts on the latest, most advanced machine tools.
Education and training
At our Technology Centers, we regularly host education, training and technology events in cooperation with our partners. These events provide industry-focused education, so that you can expand your knowledge. We also host courses that are part of our Progressive Learning Program. These courses cover the gamut of operator development learning levels from beginner to expert and include hands-on applications and real world examples.
New technology and manufacturing systems
