It impresses by its capability to simultaneously complete-machine both sides of coupling sleeves and tool joints with international threads like API and GOST or threads of proprietary standard. The machine base is made of the high-quality polymer granite MINERALIT®, a material of outstanding damping quality. The EMAG 4-station flat-bed turrets are mounted on the compound slides to the right and left of the centre drive headstock. The high rapid traverse speeds of the compound slides and the automatic workhandling system reduce idle times to a minimum. Rapid-reaction, frequency-controlled, maintenance-free AC motors and high-precision ground ball screws control the movement of the slides on their linear guideways.
