To minimize tool-change time, the machine uses the company's fixed-pot ATC system, in which each tool is always returned to the same pot while the next tool is kept ready in a "stand-by" tool pot. Tool-to-tool time is 3 seconds and chip-to-chip time is 7 seconds. The standard ATC can hold 150 tools,Ìýwhile an optional 200-tool capacity ATC is also available.
