Mazak Corporation has announced that its new Phoenix Technical Center is officially open and providing service and support for manufacturers throughout the Western United States. To showcase the new facility, Mazak will also host a grand opening event later this year.

"We continue to establish new facilities to further ensure customers receive the local service and support they need," said Dan Janka, president of Mazak Corporation. "For the Phoenix area, our new Technical Center will play a key role in that strategy and will center on the manufacturing needs of the area's key industrial sectors that include semiconductor, aerospace and defense, electronics and several others."

"The Phoenix Technical Center will additionally provide local manufacturers access to process and application engineering expertise, training and collaboration opportunities for new manufacturing solution development," adds Tony Harrod, sales manager of Mazak Arizona, New Mexico and Southern California.

The technical center houses a call center, applications engineers and sales and service support personnel. It also provides customer programming classes, machine demonstrations, test cuts and machining system run-offs, as well as regularly scheduled Mazak DISCOVER technology and education events. 

With the addition of the Phoenix Technical Center, Mazak's service and support network grows to six Technical Centers along with eight Technology Centers across North America that work closely with local manufacturers and focus on their specific areas' major industries.
