Yamazaki Mazak has launched a multi-tasking machine tool that has been specifically designed and built for the safe, efficient and accurate machining of large workpieces.

The new Integrex e-670H, part of the Integrex e-H II series of machines, combines both machining centre and turning centre, with the main turning spindle and the milling spindle each delivering a 50hp machining capability.

The machine has a part-machining capacity of 1,070mm in diameter by up to 6,000mm in length between centres.

In addition to the large working envelope, the e-670H can be equipped with NC programmable steady rest and a tailstock that provide an enhanced large-parts capacity.

Applications requiring long bores to be machined can be accommodated with 3bar up to 1.4m in length, capable of being stored in the integrated automatic tool changer.

The new Integrex is also equipped with a U-axis and the ability to hold long milling tools for special-purpose applications.

A spindle through-bore of 260mm, in conjunction with the capability to perform gear cutting, deep-hole drilling, milling and turning, makes the machine ideal for applications found in the aerospace, oil and gas and power generation industries.

The enhanced axis performance achieved through the integration of linear roller guideways means that the e-670H is also effective for smaller, intricate applications.

The e-670H also features a range of design and ergonomic factors.

The machine guarding incorporates the latest Mazak design, providing enhanced visibility and accessibility to the working area, delivering an excellent machine and user interface and an efficient part-loading and unloading capability, according to the company.

It is also equipped with a number of environmental features that reduce energy consumption and therefore the through-life cost of operation, including LED lighting, a personnel sensor, an intelligent chip conveyor, NC display-off and a power consumption meter.

The Integrex e-670H is equipped with the latest Mazatrol Matrix CNC, enabling the efficient programming of complex components.
