Mazak Machine Tool Support
Preventive maintenance – Scheduled preventive maintenance is key to maintaining your Mazak machine tool. Our engineers help you maintain your machine’s precision and improve its lifespan using scheduled maintenance. MTT’s Mazak machine preventive maintenance programs are customised to your specific requirements. Our engineers can also work around your production schedule to improve efficiency.
Electronic repair – MTT factory-trained technicians offer you fast electronic repair turnaround with a low return rate. We use the latest testing equipment to evaluate and diagnose all your Mazak machine tool electronic faults.
Certified test kits – MTT engineers use high quality test kits and calibration equipment to ensure your machine produces accurate results after each repair. Our test kits are regularly calibrated to ascertain their accuracy and ensure your Mazak machine is restored to factory settings.
Spindle exchange – Our engineers and technicians can also replace any non-functioning spindles with genuine, factory-specification units. We also ensure all replacement units function as intended with the additional benefits that come with the latest upgrades and improvements.
At Machine Tool Technologies, keeping your Mazak machine tool at optimum performance and full capacity is a priority. We offer a 24-hour response for emergency callouts to minimise your machine downtime and training for your in-house staff for minor Mazak machine repairs which improves efficiency.
Mazak faults our engineers deal with
Most calls about a Mazak machine fall into a few groups:
- Spindle and spindle motor failures
- Servo and axis drive errors
- Control system and PLC faults
- Electrical faults, wiring problems, sensor and limit switch failures
- Hydraulic, pneumatic, cooling and lubrication faults
- Ball screw and linear guide wear
- Loss of accuracy that needs alignment or calibration
Our engineers carry out full mechanical and electrical diagnostics on site, find the root cause and repair it there where possible. Where a part has failed we source and fit an OEM or equivalent quality replacement.
Breakdown response
If your Mazak has stopped, call 0845 077 9345. We offer a 24-hour response for emergency call-outs. Across all the machines we support, breakdown response ranges from 12 to 48 hours depending on location and urgency, and engineers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. See emergency CNC breakdown repair.
Planned servicing for Mazak machines
A breakdown is usually the end of a problem that has been building for some time. Scheduled servicing picks it up earlier. A service visit covers inspections and component checks, lubrication, backlash and alignment checks, electrical and software diagnostics, and calibration and geometry checks, with a written record of what was found. Visits are planned around your production schedule. See CNC machine servicing and machine tool maintenance.
Spindles
Where a spindle has failed we can repair or rebuild it in-house. Each rebuild is tested for temperature, vibration and balance before it goes back on the machine. See CNC spindle repair.
How we find faults quickly
We use measurement and monitoring in place of trial and error. On a different make of machine at the University of Huddersfield, our Sensor Toolkit picked up a rise in spindle vibration, the cause (a loose encoder connection) was diagnosed in about five minutes and an engineer fixed it within two hours. The same approach is available on Mazak machines. Read the case study.
Independent support, UK wide
Machine Tool Technologies is an independent machine tool support company, formed in 2001 and registered to ISO 9001. We are not part of Mazak. Mazak is among the major brands our engineers work on, alongside Haas, DMG Mori, Matsuura, Doosan and Okuma, in sectors including aerospace, motorsport and marine. Work is coordinated from Chorley, Lancashire and covers the whole of the UK. See our UK locations or speak to an engineer.
Frequently asked questions
Do you repair Mazak machines on site?
Yes. An engineer visits your site, carries out mechanical and electrical diagnostics, finds the root cause and repairs the machine there where possible.
How quickly can you attend a Mazak breakdown?
We offer a 24-hour response for emergency call-outs. Across our breakdown service, response times range from 12 to 48 hours depending on your location and the urgency.
Are you part of Mazak or an approved Mazak agent?
No. MTT is an independent machine tool support company. We repair and service Mazak machines alongside other major brands, which suits workshops running more than one make.
Can you service Mazak machines on a contract?
Yes. Preventive maintenance programmes are set to your requirements and planned around your production schedule. One-off services are also available.
Can you repair or replace a Mazak spindle?
Yes. We repair and rebuild spindles in-house and can replace a spindle that is beyond repair.
Can you train our staff to deal with minor Mazak faults?
Yes. We offer training for in-house staff on minor repairs and routine checks.
