complex geometries and requiring multiple machining opera- tions, as well as full simultaneous five-axis machining. The Variaxis 730-5X II is equipped with Mazak’s new


Fuel housing components with complex geometries and requiring multiple machining operations as well as full simultaneous five-axis machining are processed easily and efficiently with Choice Precision’s Mazak machines.


Mazatrol Matrix 2 CNC control with enhanced hardware and software functionalities for high accuracy, superior surface finishes and faster cycle times. A five-axis spline interpolation function included in the control’s five-axis software package provides smooth toolpaths from long block-by-block programs, easy tool-vector control and shorter cycle times. Choice’s Integrex i-200S multitasking machine with its twin turning spindles allows the shop to productively turn, drill, tap and mill, in addition to off-centerline and full simultaneous five-axis contouring. The machine incorporates all processes from raw material input through final machining in a single setup for done-in-one machining, reducing production lead times, improving machining accuracy and lowering the shop’s operating expenses.
