Marine
The range of different components required by the marine sector places huge demands on its suppliers. We examine the machining challenges faced by suppliers to the sector and offer some solutions.
The marine sector is exceptionally diverse, encompassing everything from shipbuilding and repair through to yachting. The range of components demanded are wide and made from a huge variety of metals, including aluminium, cobalt, stainless steel, titanium, bronze and CFRP.
Mazak has a long track record of delivering machine tools for these types of manufacturing, and offers machine models and machining applications for a wide variety of small-quantity and variable-volume production. Particularly in the machining of parts using large vertical and horizontal multi-tasking machines, process integration reduces the number of operators, set-ups and the movement of large components around a machine shop and improves the quality of the final product. It also contributes to improved profitability through significantly shorter lead times and cost reductions.
Applications
Mazak's machine tools are capable of machining parts with complex shapes and a variety of materials, shortening manufacturing lead times, providing consistent quality, and improving productivity.
