The Mazak Syncrex 38/9X delivers advanced Swiss-style turning with exceptional rigidity and thermal stability. Built for demanding industries, this Mazak Swiss lathe ensures reliable accuracy for small, complex components. With its robust structure and precise axis travels, it excels in high-precision CNC turning, making it ideal for manufacturers who require consistent quality and tight tolerances.
The Syncrex 38/9X reduces idle time and increases throughput with advanced tool changers that prepare the next tool during active machining. This capability supports continuous operation, keeping spindle utilization consistent in high-volume or high-mix production environments. As a result, manufacturers benefit from greater efficiency without sacrificing part quality.
The Syncrex 38/9X completes complex geometries in a single setup with simultaneous 5-axis machining. This eliminates repositioning, shortens cycle times, and ensures consistent precision. The Smooth CNC control system enhances operations with AI-driven tool path optimization, digital twin simulation, and real-time diagnostics. These intelligent features simplify programming, improve workflow, and give operators greater control over every stage of production.

The Mazak Syncrex 38/9X combines 38 mm (1.50 in) bar capacity with full B-axis contouring for larger Swiss-turned parts containing angled holes, flats, slots, and contoured milled features. Main- and sub-spindle work can be coordinated with cross tools, live back-working stations, and the B-axis unit to address complex parts from both ends. A.W. Miller Technical Sales is an authorized Mazak distributor serving manufacturers throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Southern New Jersey, and Quebec. A.W. Miller supports Syncrex applications with machine selection, process development, installation, training, and factory-certified service.
It includes 39 standard tool positions, a six-position B-axis live-tool unit divided between main- and sub-spindle work, 8,000 RPM main and sub spindles, and the MAZATROL SmoothStX control. Guide-bushing and chucker operation are available.
Its additional axis control is relevant to:
The live-tool unit can move continuously through programmed angles instead of being limited to fixed indexed positions.
Three positions support main-spindle work and three support sub-spindle work, allowing angular features on both sides of the component.
The tooling layout supports complex processes that would otherwise require frequent tool changes or secondary operations.
The machine brings full-contouring capability to the largest current Syncrex bar-capacity class.
The B axis supports compound-angle holes, blended milled surfaces, angled slots, and contoured features that require coordinated tool movement.
Yes. B-axis tool positions serve both the main and sub spindles, supporting angular work before and after part transfer.
The B-axis unit has six positions: three assigned to main-spindle work and three to sub-spindle work.
Yes. The 32 mm and 38 mm Syncrex platforms can be converted from guide-bushing operation to chucker mode.
Candidates include parts with compound-angle holes, blended milled surfaces, angled slots, or complex features on both the main- and sub-spindle sides.
