Features of the Mazak HCN-8800 with PALLETECH automation system

High-volume production without compromise
Our HCN-8800 HMC boasts an 800mm pallet size that is ideal for large components, complex geometrics and multi-face machining. Coupled with automatic pallet changing and part scheduling, we maximize spindle uptime and throughput, and can run lights-out, even on weekends.
Fully integrated PALLETECH system
The PALLETECH flexible manufacturing system gives us the ability to:
- Queue multiple jobs with smart scheduling
- Run multiple parts across different shifts
- Reduce manual handling and setup time
- Increase lights-out manufacturing capability
With 6 pallet stations and dynamic work scheduling, we can scale with your demand and respond quickly to production changes.
Unrivaled accuracy and repeatability
The HCN-8800 features linear roller guides, heavy-duty spindles, and thermally stable construction that delivers sub-micron accuracy even on complex multi-axis jobs. This means tight tolerances met consistently across high-volume runs.
