Designed for toolroom and small-lot work, the ProtoTrak CNC enables machinists who work in small quantities to transition freely between manual and CNC operation. Manufacturer Southwestern Industries says the CNC’s geometry-based programming is intuitive to machinists and useful for those who have limited exposure to G-code programming. Other features include networking, spreadsheet editing, list step graphics, an auto geometry engine and DXF converters.
