Southwestern Industries to Host Midwest Region Open House Events

Southwestern Industries will showcase its TRAK 2OP portable VMC at its showrooms in Elk Grove Village, IL, on March 9, 2016 and Novi, MI, on February 24, 2016.

TRAK 2OP Portable VMC placed adjacent to a VMC to form a work cell on demand or cell on the fly

Designed for second operation machining, the TRAK 2OP streamlines a shop’s workflow by bringing an additional spindle to an operator idled by the cycle time of the operator’s primary machine. Like all Southwestern Industries’ products, it utilizes ProtoTRAK CNC technology with conversational language programming. Programs can be generated either at the machine or remotely to perform tasks normally associated with second operation machining including: drilling, tapping, countersinking, face milling and the machining of profiles, pockets and bolt hole patterns.

Other TRAK 2OP standard features include an eight-station tool changer that eliminates the need for manual tool changes, built-in Jergens ball locks that facilitate quick changeovers and a pallet jack. The latter is designed to allow a person to move the compact (2.5’ x 4’) TRAK 2OP to any desired shop location.

Southwestern Industries will also display its TRAK LPM machining center for high-mix, low-volume work and TRAK product line of bed mills, lathes and knee mills. Like the 2OP, these products feature ProtoTRAK CNC technology.

To make a reservation for this event, contact a local Southwestern Industries sales representative.
