The new ultra-eco-friendly Mazak Variaxis i-700 NEO
Mazak’s next-generation of 5-axis simultaneous vertical machining centre, the Variaxis i-700 NEO delivers machining capability in a faster, more compact machine. In addition, enhanced technologies are incorporated into the design that reduce running CO2 emissions by 22.7% compared to the previous model, and help to reduce energy consumption and save costs.
Using standards set out by the Green House Gas Protocol, Mazak Smooth Technology offers functions to support customers’ requirements in measuring, analysing and improving the energy and subsequent CO2 footprint of the parts they produce.
This significant achievement reflects Yamazaki Mazak's deep commitment to environmentally friendly manufacturing and is in line with the company's Go Green strategy.
