The new Mowidec system carried by FLP Tooling Inc. centers spindles accurately within aµm. The system can center the front spindle vs. the guide bushing, adjust the back operation positions vs. the pick-up spindle and check alignment of headstock/guide bush/subspindle. Using the Mowidec system will substantially reduce long term costs by increasing part production accuracy, according to the company.

The Mowidec control fits on the machine housing via magnetic pads with an electronic sensor giving a precise reading without contact. The system is compatible with all screw machines: Tornos, Star, Citizen, Tsugami, Hanwha, etc and can be used on multi-spindle lathes, transfer machines and milling machines.
