CNC Retrofit For Boring Mills - Vega MLM-B Mill CNC

The Vega MLM-B Mill CNC was specifically designed as a retrofit package for older boring mills. Combining the manual operations that operators want with thc automatic cycles and full 3D CNC programming, this new CNC is just what shops need to rejuvenate their older machines and remain competitive in today's market, the company says.

The CNC is easy to use and learn, which lowers the learning curve, making operators productive right away. It has a host of features, including handwheel, joystick and pushbutton jog interfaces, manual tapping, programmable cycles, mirroring, scaling, and many other features that help reduce setup time, improve quality and reduce scrap.

Additional standard features include a color LCD display, 32-bit CPU, hard disk, floppy disk, CD ROM, hand held pendant, full keyboard and a user-friendly keyboard.

The retrofit package includes on-site installation and operator training and usually takes 7-15 days. The Vega MLM-B can interface with both AC and DC servo systems, which means that current motors and drives don't have to be replaced. This reduces typical retrofit costs by as much as 40 percent.
