CNC automatic lathes add on 'second operations'
Aquisition of CNC automatic lathes eliminated the need for second operation work on alternative machines while the subcontractor company was able to produce more complex work.
UK BTMA member WML Engineering was looking for a new turning centre and believed the new Deco 20s was the ideal machine for the company's requirements.
The Swansea based manufacturer is the first company in the world to order the exceptional new Deco 20s.
The Deco 20s is the second machine to be launched in the s-line range and is geared towards simplicity coupled with strong mechanical elements to guarantee high precision.
With six linear axes, the machine has been designed to produce reasonably complex parts up to 25.4mm diameter with an excellent price-to-potential ratio.
WML director Jason Meir comments: "The Tornos Deco 20s complements our current Tornos Deco 20a machines".
"WML has a requirement for very small batch runs and the simplicity and versatility of the Deco 20s fills this gap perfectly".
"An additional advantage is that the machine can interface with our TB Deco controlled Tornos machines as well as operating in ISO code".
"All these attributes make the machine ideal for our work in the medical sector." Tornos developed the Deco 20s machine to respond to the market requirements of the medical, automotive and general manufacturing industries.
The exceptional strength and power provide the lathe with a very large machining capacity whilst the 22 tool positions give the Deco 20s exceptional flexibility.
The ergonomic aspect was designed to simplify the use of the Deco 20s.
The machining area is large and well ventilated and all pre-adjusted tools are easily accessible.
