Compact High-Speed Milling Machine



DATRON Dynamics, Inc. has announced the DATRON neo compact CNC milling machine, the latest addition to the company's line of precision high-speed machining systems. The DATRON neo is designed to provide simple operation and easy post-processing, enabling design professionals to create precision models, prototypes and 3-D metal parts without leaving the workplace.

With its intuitive operation terminal featuring DATRON's own "next" software, this compact milling machine is suitable for machining beginners. The neo combines an interior camera and a multi-function touchscreen interface for intuitive operation. The neo's integrated camera and 3-D touch probe are designed to eliminate the time-consuming task of setting up jobs by using automatic recognition of the workpiece location, which is drawn by the operator directly onto the touchscreen. The interface guides users through the milling process, much like a smartphone or tablet app. Beginners benefit from the simple user interface and graphics.

"The ergonomic design of the machine allows operators to load a workpiece from a position above the machining table while the height and angle of the workpiece is automatically set up at the operating terminal," said Robert Murphy, Vice President of DATRON Dynamics. The clean design and enclosure give the operator a view of and easy access to the machining area, which is ample in relation to the machine's small footprint. The machine fits through a standard doorway and can be installed within a few hours.

Suitable for rapid tooling, design communication and short-run manufacturing, the DATRON neo is capable of milling a variety of materials up to 20" x 16.5" x 9" with its 40,000 RPM spindle and 24 station automatic tool changer.
