MECATOME T210 provides for rapid cutting of medium size parts and the possibility of multiple serial sections with the optional X axis drive. Positional accuracy and a range of speeds is ensured with the use of high precision motors for the Y axis and the optional X axis. Cutting of even the most difficult materials is ensured with the powerful cutter motor and Y axis motion being optimized and under automated control. The work area under the hood is spacious, well lit and equipped with a “T” slot table compatible with most clamping systems available. Sample cooling and lubrication can be by the internal self- contained system or through the use of an external re-circulating system.
