Mazak Optonics Expands North American Headquarters

Mazak Optonics (Elgin, IL), a supplier of laser-cutting systems, will break ground this fall on the expansion of their Elgin Technology Center.

“Our long-term commitment to customers in North America convinced us to move forward with our expansion plans,” said Al Bohlen, president of Mazak Optonics. “The goal of this significant investment in our North American operations is to further strengthen our customer support operations while continuing to provide customers with advanced laser-cutting and automation system solutions. Mazak has a long-established history of making strategic investments during such times, ensuring its readiness for the next phase of growth.”

With an expected completion in the spring of 2021, the expansion will provide over 20,000 square-feet of additional operational facilities, including a new auditorium, increased capacity for parts and customer service support, a new research and development center, and additional machine tool technology areas.
