Abstract: This paper tries to point the fact that Mazak, as the machine-tool industry’s leader in Multi-Tasking technology, is releasing multi-tasking manufacturing equipment for an expanding range of parts applications in an equally wide range of manufacturing industries. “Mazak is constantly refining Multi-Tasking technologies to make them more workable, so more industries benefit and grow stronger from Done-in One machining that eliminates multiple machines and multiple fixtures and completes complex parts in a single setup.” The Intelligent Functions come from a combination of machine design features and the processing power of the 6th-generation Mazatrol CNC, the Matrix. The result is the ability to look ahead and identify conditions before they become problems. Mazak Intelligent Machine functions include Active Vibration Control, Intelligent Safety Shield, Intelligent Thermal Shield, Intelligent Performance Spindle, Mazak Voice Adviser, Intelligent Maintenance Support, and Intelligent Balance Analyze [1].
