Tooling manufacturer invests in advanced manufacturing technology for higher efficiency

Florence, Kentucky, January 12, 2010 – Mazak Corporation has announced a new partnership with Parlec Inc, a leading manufacturer of tooling and toolholding, workholding, presetting and other metalworking products. Parlec’s headquarters are located in Fairport, New York.

Through Mazak’s expertise in automation and broad range of multi-tasking machines, Parlec will improve the cost effectiveness and throughput of its manufacturing operations.
