JetMachining® Centers are available with closed-loop Intelli-TRAX®, which optimizes traverse speeds to reduce throughput times when machining multiple and nested parts. Mechanical force needed to produce motion is obtained from friction wheel pressed tightly against rail and is controlled by operator. Linear encoder positioning system, featuring sensor with 1 µm resolution, reads position information from precision linear tape scale attached to beam assembly.
