THE EASY WAY TO MORE PRODUCTIVE MILLING AND TURNING!

that's easy enough to save

you time on any small lot job.Looks like a DRO when you need to machine manually, but with handy extras!

Clear, sharp dimensions

just press ...

Manual operation plus Jog, Power Feed and Teach

... And follow the instructions

Modes keep things simple by grouping like activities together

To Program choose a geometry

To RUN a part you’ve programmed ...

... then ... answer the prompts

Graphics show you what you’ve programmed

learning is easy, even if you have never used a CnC before.

RUN! It is easier to make parts with a ProtoTRAK than with a manual machine

fewer mistakes

easier setups

less drudgery

We keep costs low by using the same hardware and taking the older display in exchange.

These ProtoTRAK Models may be upgraded to the ProtoTRAK EMX:• ProtoTRAK Edge• ProtoTRAK MX2• ProtoTRAK M2

Productivity is where the money is. Since 1986, the ProtoTRAK has helped thousands of shops be more profitable and successful. There are few things in life as certain as an investment in a ProtoTRAK.
