Affordable (under $10K) ALL-SERVO CNC machine to revolutionize milling capabilities, scheduled for release in Spring 2013
NOVAKON, a leading North American provider of CNC bed mills located in Toronto, Canada, announces the release of its
all-new machine after careful review of customer feedback and requests. Significant improvements to this latest milling machine, named
PULSAR PRO, takes advantage of the most current technology, implementing features such as a
Servo Spindle and
Servo Axes in one of the most compact packages ever offered by the company.
These enhancements enable operators to perform
Rigid Tapping and
Rapid Feed Rates through an integrated Closed-Loop positioning system, maintaining absolute accuracy throughout the cutting process. With the optional Lever Draw Bar (LDB), tool changes can be a snap utilizing the Quick Tool Change (QTC) system.
With sloped drainage on the optional stand, combined with a coolant system which pumps 7 gallons through its double filtration reservoir, the
PULSAR PRO maintains the ability for extended use with less contamination and better chip removal than any machine offered before.
Between April 12th-14th 2013, NOVAKON will showcase live demonstrations of this bed mill in York, Pennsylvania at
Cabin Fever Expo, alongside their other revolutionary products. For a complete list of all the features and benefits of this machine, please refer to the list below.
