John Hart will be bringing the Mazak Integrex i-250H S, Variaxis C-600, and the VCN-600 to AMW 2025, to demonstrate Mazak’s innovations in machining productivity as well as the MAZATROL Smooth CNC Technology. John Hart will also be showcasing the Agile Flex robotic loading systems for CNC machine tools, and hyperMILL, the CAD/CAM software from OPEN MIND.

The next generation of Mazak Integrex - the i-H Series is helping manufacturers respond quickly to ever-changing production demands whilst taking advantage of the new digital solutions offered by Mazak’s MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC. The Mazak Integrex i-250H features Mazak’s MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC, the next generation of SMOOTH TECHNOLOGY. In addition to the conversational programming power of MAZATROL, the SmoothAi control leverages the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to power innovative tools like SMOOTH Ai Spindle, SMOOTH CAM Ai, MAZATROL TWINS and more.

The next generation simultaneous 5-axis vertical machining centre Mazak Variaxis C-600 uses rigid C-frame construction, a standard 30-tool changer, dual-supported tilting table and fast rapid traverse rates to reduce cycle times on demanding jobs. The Mazak Variaxis C-600 is also equipped with SmoothAi CNC, Mazak’s new artificial intelligence control, which has in-built learning capability to continually improve machine performance. 

The Mazak VCN-600 vertical machining centre is developed for high performance and designed to significantly improve productivity rates for manufacturers undertaking everything from heavy-duty cutting to high-speed dynamic milling. The compact Mazak VCN-600 with BT No.40 features high rigidity construction to ensure high accuracy machining and is now available with extended Y-axis stroke. The Mazak VCN-600 is equipped with either the new MAZATROL SmoothEz or MAZATROL Smooth G advanced CNC both designed for ease of operation.

The Agile Flex is a range of “out of the box” robotic loading systems, designed and built right here in Australia and marketed world-wide. Rapid to deploy, compact and easy to use, Agile Flex has been developed to add unmanned machining at a very affordable price to any modern CNC machine tool.

hyperMILL, the powerful all-in-one CAD/CAM solution, enables users to increase performance in programming and machining production. hyperMILL is a complete modular CAD/CAM solution that provides state-of-the-art CAM technologies on a dedicated CAD platform: from 2.5D-, 3D-, 5-axis and turning strategies to solutions for additive manufacturing and machining processes such as high-speed cutting (HSC) and high-performance cutting (HPC). Whether it’s programming automation, simulation or virtual machines – hyperMILL’s pioneering technologies enable end-to-end digital process chains.

The MAZATROL SmoothAi control and associated software delivers powerful digital enhancements that add efficiency and value throughout the machining process with the power of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and advanced data management.
