NZMT - NZ Machine Tools

Meet Victor Hydraulics in Christchurch.

For Darryl May and the team, the Mazak HCN 4000 and HCN 5000 are a key part of maintaining consistency, efficiency, and precision across their production workflow.

Their first Mazak machine has now exceeded 40,000 hours on the original spindle, a reflection of the reliability and long-term performance the team depends on every day.

And with Smooth Operator reporting up to 22 hours of daily uptime, the focus stays where it matters: keeping production moving and delivering quality outcomes for customers.

Because performance on the shop floor matters at every stage of the process.

Reliable capability.
Consistent results.
Built for production.

I Am Mazak.

A few highlights from the Sign & Print Expo!

It’s been a few weeks since the event, but we wanted to share some of our favourite moments from three fantastic days showcasing the Epilog Laser and Markforged range.

Thanks to everyone who visited the NZMT stand, watched the live demos, had a chat with the team, and enjoyed the music. We appreciate all the support and look forward to the next event.

We’re excited to invite you to Markforged's upcoming webinar: Industrial Drones Are Scaling Fast — Is Your Manufacturing Ready?

📅 Date & Time: 7 May, 2:00 PM NZST (NZ time)

This session explores the five key manufacturing bottlenecks slowing UAV & VTOL innovation — and how Markforged’s Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) technology is helping manufacturers overcome them. From lightweight yet strong structures to faster prototyping and scalable small-batch production, the webinar is backed by real-world applications and performance insights.

Who should attend:
• Drone & VTOL manufacturers scaling production
• R&D and engineering teams focused on lightweight, high-performance design
• Production leaders evaluating lead time, cost, and supply chain resilience
