Florence, Kentucky – Mazak officials announced the opening of 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 Feb. 1, 2017, at the new technical center located at 935 South Kimball St. 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 run-offs, as well as regularly scheduled Mazak DISCOVER events.
