“The Mi8’s multi-axis functionality makes it an extremely flexible solution for our customer’s increasing technological needs,” said Bob Malmen, Chief Operating Officer of Amada Wasino.

Today’s advancements, such as electric hybrids, hydrogen engines, new-generation diesel, and gas fuel injection system parts, can be manufactured with the utmost precision with Amada Wasino’s Mi8.

The multi-function center integrates a tool changer and auto loader, making it ideal for the die mold industry. Its ability to machine small production runs of carbon and copper electrodes unattended, with the integration of a simple robot, provides a necessary solution to meet the increasing manufacturing community’s labor demands.

The B-axis, with a 270-degree range of motion, delivers multi-axis functionality for increased flexibility. Other Mi8 features include five-face machining in a single set-up, fixed station tools for turning, 20-station tool changer for rotary tools, 8,000 rpm main turning spindle, and 20,000 rpm milling spindle.

“Amada Wasino will provide our customers with even more advanced technical solutions and a complete commitment to support,” said Bob Malmen, Chief Operating Officer at Amada Wasino.

Amada Wasino has an extensive lineup of machines that simplify the turning and grinding processes. Long considered one of the best-kept production machining secrets by leading North American manufacturers, it’s been a quiet leader in both applications for the past three decades, producing parts that “fit in your hand.”

Designed from the ground up with built-in automation, the turning line is engineered to simplify and expedite the machining process for small-part work. Amada Wasino manufactures by means of standard bolt-on automation solutions, rather than third-party produced and supported automation. Possessing a core competency in automated turning, its technology-driven centers provide maximum efficiency features such as built-in, pre-engineered, reliable gantry loaders.

Amada Wasino also applies the latest technology to its family of high-speed, high-accuracy grinding machines to revolutionize the grinding process. The machines provide operators with flexibility, while making precision surface grinding faster and more efficient for greatly enhanced productivity. The machines are designed as CNC grinders – not CNC adaptations of old machines – offering customers innovative, liberating solutions to a multitude of grinding needs.

As a business built by engineering solutions that fit the part, Amada Wasino’s recommendations are often fundamentally different from its competitors. Its machining solutions allow dramatic labor and cycle time reductions and simplify the operator process. Moving forward, Amada Wasino customers can continue to expect innovative turning and grinding machining solutions and superior customer support and service.
