The MB machine also features Shop Mill, a conversational programming system. Developed by Siemens, this software facilitates automatic programming and features interactive graphic screens and simulations. The machine also features G-code and may be used with all CAD/CAM systems.
The cast iron body features precision ballscrews and bearings, a CAT-40 spindle, and a two-speed headstock.
