High volume calls for automated workhandling, and the cost of that automation has been reduced 30 to 40% by the rise of CNC vertical chuckers with mobile integral spindle motors.  info@seoseonews.com (Super Admin) Mon, 29 Sep 2008 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.cnccncmachines.com/articles/5314/1/Next-generation-turning/Next-generation-turning.html Third-generation CNC lathe/turning center offers flexible productivity and cycle time reduction info@seoseonews.com (Super Admin) Tue, 02 Sep 2008 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.cnccncmachines.com/articles/5304/1/Mill-turn-machines-are-used-to-their-utmost-capabilities/Mill-turn-machines-are-used-to-their-utmost-capabilities.html Complex CNC machines gain power with use of softwareSan Jose, CA-based Extreme Precision (EP) purchased several sophisticated mill-turn machines, and then discovered that its previous CNC software was incapable of programming them.
