Milltronics says it continually refines and reinvents its CNC machines and controls to make them perfect extensions of the hands of the skilled U.S. machinist. This March Milltronics rings in the New Year with the launch of its reinvented VM series of vertical machine centers.
On the outside you will notice a dramatic new look; but more important, inside they’re powered by the company's next-generation control – the new Windows based 9000 series CNC. With four times the program storage, 60 times the disc storage plus a larger LCD touch screen and tactile keys, the new VM series delivers a balance of features, performance and price you need to invent faster ways to make great products.
Later, in June you’ll see even more reinvention with the release of two new lines of high-performance models equipped with inline and 50 taper spindles. New products like these, plus the reliable support of Milltronics and its distribution partners is how we keep inventing new ways to help American manufacturers complete in the global marketplace.
