Feed System: High-precision CNC gripper feed with encoder feedback.
Control: Industrial-grade CNC with Tekla / DSTV direct file import.
Material Capacity: Available in widths to suit 600mm to 1250mm sections.
Sensing: Automated part detection and material thickness compensation.
Layout Marking: Integrated scribing/marking capability for part ID and weld locations.
Top 5 "NewRun DX" Advantages:
Digital Layout Accuracy: No more chalk lines and tape measures. The DX reads your CAD/Tekla files and drills exactly where the engineer intended.
Optimised for Carbide: The high-RPM spindle is designed for modern carbide tooling, cutting through steel at speeds that make traditional HSS drills look stationary.
Versatile Multi-Processing: The Automatic Tool Changer allows the machine to drill a hole, swap to a tapping tool, and finish with a countersink, all without operator intervention.
Integrated Layout Scribing: It doesn't just drill; it marks. The DX scribes layout lines for cleats and stiffeners, acting as a "GPS" for your welding team.
Small Workshop Footprint: The DX offers a compact, linear design that fits into existing production lines without requiring a massive factory reorganisation.
