How we hold these numbers

  • Single-Setup Machining: For shafts, rotors, and other rotating components, turning and milling operations can be completed in a single Integrex setup. Keeping critical features in the same setup reduces transfer-related error and helps maintain concentricity between journals, profiles, and other functional surfaces.
  • In-Process Probing: Before critical machining operations, automated probe cycles verify part location and update work offsets when needed. This helps maintain positioning accuracy throughout the process and supports tight-tolerance requirements down to ±0.005 mm.

Materials we worked

  • Carbon steel (A36, 1045)
  • Stainless steel (304, 316)
  • Ductile iron (class 35, Grade 65-45-12)

Equipment & Capacity

What we run on the floor

We operate a focused, tightly maintained fleet rather than a massive, chaotic job shop. Every machine on our floor is regularly calibrated, programmed directly by our technical team, and dedicated strictly to high-precision OEM work.

High-Tolerance 5-Axis CNC

Single-setup Precision for Complex Rotating Components

Traditional multi-stage machining introduces stacking errors through repeated re-clamping and fixture transfers. On the Mazak Integrex platform we run the entire turn-mill process — from drawing analysis to in-machine probing — so parts leave the spindle fully machined, ready for inspection.

Complete Turn-Mill Integration

Turning, 5-axis milling, drilling, and tapping are completed within a single Integrex setup. Establishing a single datum point removes the alignment errors and tolerance stacking typically caused by transferring parts between separate lathes and machining centers.

Complex Profiles & Undercuts

Compound angles, freeform surfaces, and cross-features that would need multiple re-clamps on a 3-axis machine run in one cycle. The B-axis milling spindle continuous-tilts to access the geometry without resetting the workpiece.

Heavy-Duty Capacity up to Ø920 mm

Ø920 × 1,500 mm envelope on the Mazak Integrex e-650H — pump shafts, compressor rotors, and heavy industrial housings that exceed the capacity of standard 5-axis centers.

Quality & Inspection

Documentation you can hand to your QA

Every job is built around traceability. CMM data, material certificates, and inspection reports stay with the part file from RFQ to delivery.

Single-Setup Machining

Eliminating cumulative transfer errors.

Turning, 5-axis milling, drilling, and tapping are executed within a single Mazak Integrex setup. This approach secures all GD&T callouts relative to a single datum, eliminating the positioning alignment errors common when transferring workpieces between standalone lathes and machining centers.

In-Machine Probing & Datum Alignment

Automated workpiece inspection, not theoretical setup.

Before each machining cycle, an integrated touch probe measures the actual workpiece position to establish the datum based on real geometry. This eliminates the variances of manual touch-offs, ensuring absolute positioning accuracy before the first cut, especially on complex, high-value blanks.

Thermal Compensation Control

Mazak MAZATROL Smooth Technology for active stability.

Utilizing Mazak’s Smooth Technology, the machine applies real-time thermal compensation throughout the production cycle, maintaining positioning accuracy within ±0.005 mm during long, unattended runs. This active stabilization prevents dimensional drift during multi-hour turn-mill operations.

CMM Verification

Serein METERS 122210 CMM (Hexagon Group) in a 20 ± 2 °C controlled room.

Post-machining, critical features are verified on our dedicated CMM. Dimensional reports and GD&T evaluations ship with every batch.

Our Process

From RFQ to delivery

  1. 5-Axis Multi-Tasking Machining workflow — Step 1: DFM Review
    Step 01

    DFM Review

    We evaluate workpiece geometry to determine the machining route. If a simpler 3-axis or standard turning process is more cost-effective than multi-tasking, we flag it in the quote — not after the PO.

  2. 5-Axis Multi-Tasking Machining workflow — Step 2: CAM & Simulation
    Step 02

    CAM & Simulation

    Toolpaths are programmed in Mastercam or hyperMILL and validated through full machine-envelope simulation, so tool interference and collisions are caught off-machine before any metal is cut.

  3. 5-Axis Multi-Tasking Machining workflow — Step 3: Custom Fixturing
    Step 03

    Custom Fixturing

    Dedicated fixtures hold the part stable under cutting loads while keeping tool clearance for complex turn-mill geometries.

  4. 5-Axis Multi-Tasking Machining workflow — Step 4: Multi-Tasking & Probing
    Step 04

    Multi-Tasking & Probing

    Turning, 5-axis milling, drilling, and tapping are executed in a single integrated Integrex setup. In-process touch probing is utilized to verify critical dimensions on the machine for real-time quality control.

  5. 5-Axis Multi-Tasking Machining workflow — Step 5: Inspection & Delivery
    Step 05

    Inspection & Delivery

    CMM inspection reports and GD&T evaluations ship with every batch. Anti-rust packed for export, with traceable QC docs for sign-off.

Common Questions

Frequently asked about 5-axis multi-tasking machining

What does multi-tasking mean on the Mazak Integrex?

Multi-tasking means a single machine performs turning, 5-axis milling, drilling, and tapping in one fixture — without transferring the part to separate lathes and machining centers. On a typical compressor rotor or shaft, this collapses 5–8 conventional operations into one fixture and eliminates the cumulative tolerance error introduced by re-chucking across multiple machines.

When is 5-axis multi-tasking the right choice?

When a part has both rotational features (shafts, bores, threads) and prismatic / 5-axis features (flats, pockets, undercuts, cross-holes) that would normally require multiple setups across a lathe and a machining center. Doing it in one Integrex setup is faster, more accurate, and more repeatable.

What is the maximum part size?

Up to Ø920 mm turning diameter and 1,500 mm workpiece length on the Integrex e-650H. Mid-size parts up to Ø670 × 1,011 mm run on the i-300. Larger parts can be evaluated case-by-case.

Do you offer simultaneous 5-axis cutting or just 3+2 positioning?

Both. We use simultaneous 5-axis for complex contoured surfaces and 3+2 positioning for prismatic features that benefit from rigid indexed setups. The Integrex platform supports both modes natively.
