Large CNC lathes to be got for attractive prices
Value for money CNC machine tool specialist, XYZ Machine Tools in Devon, has expanded its range of CNC lathes with the introduction of the Vulcan series of turning centres.
Having over the years provided numerous sub-contractors - and motorsport teams, too - with flexible and easy-to-use manual/CNC lathes and turret/bed mills equipped with the innovative ProtoTRAK control, XYZ is now offering machining centres and turning centres equipped with the new XYZ CNC-7 control.
This control, as is the case with ProtoTRAK, reflects XYZ's belief that the easier a control is to program, set up and operate, the more productive the machine tool will become.
The 'Skill Level Select' feature of the PC-based software at the heart of the XYZ CNC-7 control caters for first-time and experienced users of CNC machines.
Programs can be constructed via conversationally prompted Manual Data Input screens or by inputting G and M codes.
However, nothing is more convincing that a 'hands on' demonstration, and the XYZ stand at Autosport Engineering is ideally placed to demonstrate the benefits of computer controls that set the standard for value and performance.
Machines on display will include a XYZ SM 2000 manual/CNC turret mill and the new XYZ ProTURN SLX 1630 manual/CNC lathe, both equipped with ProtoTRAK controls, and a XYZ Mini Mill 560 compact vertical machining centre equipped with the new CNC-7 control.
