High Production Turn-Mill Centers
The C100 series of production turn-mill centers are versatile, high production machines linked in real-time to the company鈥檚 Virtual Machine programming and simulation suite. Virtual Machine includes user software that is a mirror of the real machine configuration. The data allow users to program, set up and operate the 鈥渧irtual machine鈥 in exactly the same way as the real machine.

Compact Gaging System Allows In-Process Inspection On Small Grinding Machines
This new gaging system聽not only is compact enough to install on small grinding machines, but also can measure a part鈥檚 OD, ID and length to sub-micron accuracy.
Read MoreTurn Parts With Simple Geometries
The Delta Swiss-type lathe product line is dedicated to machining parts with simple geometries. These machines feature a cast iron base, a large-capacity chip pan and a wide working area. The machines can be customized to work with or without a guide bushing, and they can use rotating tools.
Read MoreCompact Fiber Laser Marking Unit
The compact TF420 fiber laser marking unit is said to provide high-contrast 2D data matrix codes, logos, bar codes and human-readable text at high speeds. Considered a universal marking solution, the unit is capable of printing on difficult materials, such as cast aluminum and carbide, while maintaining the precision to mark consumer products such as cellular telephones and medical devices. The compact marking head is completely sealed and enclosed in a protective cast aluminum case allowing the system to be mounted in virtually any orientation.
