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.
Known for its ProtoTRAK-equipped manual/CNC milling machines and lathes, ISO 9001:2000-accredited XYZ Machine Tools has steadily expanded its machine tools suited to prototype and low volume production.
For example, September's two-day 'open house' in Blackburn showed the ProtoTRAK EMX eMill range for the first time.
At GBP 10,000 + VAT, the machine is said by XYZ to be by far the most cost-effective 'first step' for users into CNC prismatic machining.
* High-specification, low-cost turning centre - the November 'open house' at Nuneaton introduced the XYZ Compact Turn 52 turning centre.
It is described by XYZ as a 'high-spec, low-cost' 15kW/5000 rev/min turning centre.
It has the easy-to-use Siemens 810D conversational control and has X- and Z-axis travels of 185mm and 325mm.
First deliveries are scheduled for February 2008.
Atherton is predicted, on the basis of the interest shown at the Nuneaton event, that this new machine with its 1700mm (W) by 1300mm (D) 'footprint' will be particularly attractive to smaller companies where floor space is at a premium.
