Mazak is one of the very largest MTBs in the world for a reason. When you tour a Mazak plant you will see only Mazak machines making Mazak machines. Plasma, laser, sheet metal forming too. And an Okamoto grinder located where a shim is needed for final adjustment. Things may be different on your side of the pond though.
The reason is that they built up a brand with a huge mindshare, by flooding the market 30-40 years ago with fairly decent machines with Mazatrol controls. They haven't been competitive for a long time, and are coasting along on their name.

Since 2010 anyhow, when they took advantage of the downtime and built a cpl big mills to replace some older Cincinnati mills. (Florence Yall)

I've been to the facility in Kentucky, as well as had the opportunity to work on 4 different types of Mazaks. I do have one of their machines in my shortlist, but I haven't posted about it as I already have a lot of feedback plus personal experience with them.

I am aware of the deep gold mine(s) in Timmins.

We do any and all mining projects. Mainly though, we specialize in crushers, and not just local, but all of Northern Ontario.
