5
Tornos Machining Macros
ISO machines
For some years now, Tornos has offered its customers its famous program sequencing macros which automate a part cycle. Tornos is now going one step further, offering macros for its ISO machines that are referred to as “machining” macros and “unproductive” macros.
4
B Macro
ISO machines
The B macro is a programming language whose parameters are set on FANUC numerical controls. It allows you to make your programs smart.
3
Long parts
ISO machines
On a machine, machining a part that is longer than the stroke of the machine main spindle in a single feeding is impossible. This is why Tornos now offers the chance of feeding several times a given quantity of material for a single part.
2
