A Tonic
to Your Valuable Machine Tool
Modernising your machine tools by CNC Retrofit
is an economical way to upgrade your plant. CNC Retrofit is
particularly important for medium to large machine of high
value.
The mechanics of older machines may still
be in good condition or may require re-conditioning. Often
the control and electrical components become obsolete or unreliable
and need replacement.
The degree of modernisation and the technology
used to update the controls and motors, determines the price
of CNC retrofit package. We will evaluate your machine and
prepare a detailed offer on suitable CNC retrofit solution.
You can choose from a variety of additional options and services
such as training courses, service contracts and software functions.
Upgrading an NC machine to the latest CNC systems is
the most common form of CNC retrofit. In this case we may
supply a new Siemens SINUMERIK
CNC system, SIMODRIVE
AC servo drives, spindle
drive and encoders.
If required we provide a new electrical cabinet and machine
wiring.
