Mazak lathes feature CNC technology, and are applicable to a multitude of machining environments, from small part manufacturing to the heavy-duty cutting of super large parts. The CNC platform makes multitasking easier than ever, putting automated control at your fingertips. CNC refers to Computer Numerical Control, a system where materials are fed into a Mazak lathe turning center at a certain speed, one right after another, and machined parts are formed ‘whole’ within the device utilizing remote computer technology. These machining devices can turn the material as needed to hone, drill, carve, or otherwise shape it, change the required tool itself as needed, and sometimes even finish the surface of the product—all before the next one hits the belt to be loaded onto the machine’s feed.
Therefore, CNC Mazak lathes are those used in applications where the machined part is designed using Computer Aided Design (CAD technology) and / or made using Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM technology) work tools. The on-machine button functions are can be very sophisticated, often interfaced with Mazatrol Conversational CNC. This feature allows the operator of the lathe to program either design specifications or commands into the machine based on ‘question and answer’ dialogue between him/herself and the unit’s computerized display. How’s that for an intuitive machine?
