Mazak to open Phoenix Technical Center

As manufacturing continues to spread throughout the Western United States, Mazak Corp. has expanded its service and support network for that region with the opening of a new Phoenix Technical Center, which is scheduled for later this year. The facility, located at 2675 West Buckeye Rd. in Phoenix, Arizona, will provide local manufacturers in all industries access to process and application engineering expertise, training, and collaboration opportunities for new manufacturing solution development.

The technology center houses call centers, applications engineers, and sales and service support personnel. It also provides space for customer programming classes, machine demonstrations, test cuts, and machining system run-offs, as well as regularly scheduled Mazak DISCOVER events.

“Mazak continues to establish new facilities to further ensure customers receive the local service and support they need,” said Dan Janka, President of Mazak Corp. “For the Phoenix area, our new Technical Center will play a key role in that strategy and will center on the manufacturing needs of the area’s key industrial sectors that include semiconductor, aerospace and defense, electronics, and several others.”

The new Phoenix Technical Center will be Mazak’s sixth in North America. Currently, Mazak’s service and support network includes its Technical Centers along with eight Technology Centers that work closely with manufacturers and focus on their specific area’s major industries.

Committed to being a partner to customers with innovative technology, Mazak’s world-class facility in Florence, Kentucky produces more than 70 models of turning centers, multi-tasking machines, and vertical machining centers, including 5-axis models, hybrid additive processing machines and Swiss turning machines.
