Benefits of Swiss-Style Lathes

Kip Hanson, contributing editor to SME Media, recently wrote an article published in Manufacturing Engineering about tooling and equipment strategies for getting the most out of a Swiss-style lathe. You can read the article online: Multi-purpose Machine Tool. Kip talks about the challenges and benefits of investing in this type of CNC machine and how to set your shop up for success.

Our Swiss Product Specialist, Chris Leclerc, contributed to the article, and is quoted in the section, “The Call for Good Code.” Chris explains how important CAM software is to demystify the programming of Swiss-style lathes to reap the benefits of speed and maximum machine utilization.
