Mazak will showcase advanced machining solutions designed to help manufacturers increase throughput and do more with fewer resources at the IMTS (International Manufacturing Technology Show) 2026.
If you are travelling to Chicago for IMTS 2026, you will find Mazak on booth 338300.
As production demands accelerate across key industries, manufacturers are under increasing pressure to boost output while managing labour and cost constraints. Mazak’s technologies address these challenges through integrated machining, automation and digital connectivity.
Manufacturers in the semiconductor, aerospace, medical, oil and gas, defence and other key growth industries will learn how to drive their results with Mazak innovation. Live, real-world part cutting demonstrations will showcase the advantages of Mazak machines.
All Mazak machines offer seamless automation integration, and the company will spotlight several of its productivity-enhancing solutions that range from simple bar feeders and gantry loaders to standalone robot systems and full multi-machine palletised cells.
In an environment of rising labour costs, tariffs, inflation and other economic demands, Mazak maintains a focus on providing high-value, high-performance and productive solutions. Today’s manufacturers are under tremendous pressure to increase their production in less time.
To succeed, they need to do more with less, and they will accomplish that with the highly productive machines and automation technologies that Mazak will showcase at IMTS 2026.
Among the 15 machines Mazak will feature at IMTS, the NEO series machines are the result of Mazak’s continuous improvement and redesign of existing models in line with the current needs of manufacturers. NEO series machines at the show will include the Mazak Integrex i-200ST NEO multi-tasking machine outfitted with gantry loader automation and the HCN-5000 NEO horizontal machining center paired with Mazak’s Multi-Pallet Pool (MPP) compact multi-level pallet stocker system.
Multi-Tasking technology is one of Mazak’s core strengths, and the company will demonstrate its DONE-IN-ONE part processing on the Mazak QRX-50MSY and Mazak QTE-100MSY multi-tasking machines. The QRX-50MSY’s combination of milling capability, second turning spindle and Y-axis functionality with advanced technology, productivity and value delivers exceptional performance for shops machining small parts such as EV input shafts, mid-shafts, valve fittings and other components exceeding 50mm in diameter.
Mazak will pair its QTE-100MSY with a gantry loader at IMTS. The machine sports a second turning spindle, milling capability and Y-axis off-centerline machining. Its main spindle features a 6″ chuck and a 45 mm through hole for efficient processing of a wide range of smaller parts.
Two Variaxis machine models, the Variaxis C-700 and Variaxis i-800T, will represent Mazak’s vertical machining center technology at IMTS. Both machines are solid first steps into 5-axis machining for machine shops and are highly capable machines with versatile sheet-metal enclosures ready for a comprehensive range of automation solutions. Mazak offers several spindle options for the machines to help shops find the ideal balance of speed and power. Furthermore, the “T” model of the Variaxis i-Series machines features turning capability on their tilt/rotary table.
