Mazak announced it will open a new second facility in Texas. Joining the company's existing Southwest Technology Center in Houston, the new Mazak Dallas Technical Center will serve the Northern Texas region.

To celebrate the expansion, Mazak will host an Open House event on February 1, 2017, at the new technical center located in Southlake, Texas. The event will feature several machine demonstrations, special guest speakers and tours.

"The new Dallas Technical Center gives Mazak a commanding Texas presence in terms of manufacturing technology and customer support," Dan Janka, president of Mazak. "Northern Texas manufacturers in the defense, aerospace, medical, automotive, energy and construction industries will especially benefit from even more readily accessible technical, engineering and applications expertise from Mazak."

The approximately 8,000-sq-ft Dallas facility provides additional space for customer programming classes, machine demonstrations, test cuts and machining system runoffs, as well as regularly scheduled Mazak Discover events. With the addition of this new facility, Mazak, along with its Value Inspired Partner (VIP) companies, can quickly deliver today's most advanced and complete machining systems - multi-tasking, full 5-axis, horizontal and vertical - to keep Texas customers competitive and productive.
