Machine Comparison
Index G220 vs Mazak INTEGREX AG
Index-Traub vs Yamazaki Mazak · Mill-Turn Machines
Summary
The Index G220 and the Mazak INTEGREX AG are both mill-turn machines, but they serve different jobs. The G220 is a compact turn-mill center with a 220 mm (8.66 in) maximum turning diameter, 660 mm (26 in) turning length and a 165 mm (6.5 in) chuck, aimed at complex aerospace and medical parts finished in one setup. The INTEGREX AG is Mazak's gear-machining multitasking line, listed in a much larger size class, for geared shafts, splined parts and integrated gears.
The INTEGREX AG runs its milling spindle to 12,000 RPM, with 20,000 RPM optional on the horizontal, against 7,200 rpm on the G220, and its MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC carries gear machining cycles. The G220 runs a Siemens S840D sl control.

Advantages
Index G220
- Compact envelope with a 220 mm (8.66 in) turning diameter and 660 mm (26 in) length for small complex parts
- Aimed at titanium, Inconel and hardened steel parts that would otherwise need several setups
Mazak INTEGREX AG
- 12,000 RPM live tool speed against 7,200 rpm, with 20,000 RPM optional on the horizontal
- MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC with gear machining cycles
- Larger turning envelope for big geared shafts and gearbox components
Verdict
These machines do different jobs. The Index G220 suits aerospace, medical and precision contract work on small complex parts up to 220 mm diameter that would otherwise need several setups. The Mazak INTEGREX AG suits shops cutting gears in-house, such as transmission shafts, splined parts and gearbox components, where 12,000 RPM milling and built-in gear machining cycles replace a dedicated gear cutting machine.
