TRAK Machine Tools/Southwestern Industries to Host Two Open Houses



TRAK 2OP portable VMC placed adjacent to a primary VMC to form a "work cell on demand"

TRAK Machine Tools will host two open houses: June 6 in its East Hanover, NJ, showroom at 15 Melanie Lane # 10B East, and June 13 in Rochester, NY, at Rochester Institute of Technology - James E. Gleason Hall Building 009, Room 2430.

The open houses will showcase the TRAK 2OP portable VMC designed primarily for second operation machining. The TRAK 2OP streamlines a shop's workflow by bringing an additional spindle quickly and easily to an operator idled by the cycle time of his primary machine. It utilizes ProtoTRAK CNC technology with easy to learn and use 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 8-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' footprint) TRAK 2OP to any desired shop location within minutes to improve workflow.

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

A complimentary lunch will be provided at both events.
