ABCs of DRO Manual

From Automation and Metrology, Inc.
 

 
ACU-RITE readouts are application-specific systems for the manual machine tool industry. The primary benefit is saving time and increased productivity. The addition of a readout system on any machine allows for reduced scrap due to the elimination of measuring inaccuracies. Machine operators are relieved of tedious setup, positioning and checking operations so more time is spent machining. Training is easier and faster, elevating less-experienced operators to obtain optimum production levels in a shorter time. The return on investment (ROI) on savings averages less than 30 days.
