Machine Demonstrations

Additionally, the Makino Thermal Stabiliser technology, isolates the machine from changing shop conditions to machine accurately.

The Omax 5555 will demonstrate how it cuts complex parts out of most materials including metal, plastic, glass, ceramic and composites directly from a CAD drawing or DXF file. JetMachining is ideal for short-run part production, just-in-time manufacturing, tooling and prototype part development. No tool changes or complex fixturing means reduced setup times, in some cases by up to 50%.

Iscar, tooling specialists, will demonstrate its latest range 3P products which deliver productivity, performance and profitability.
