G.E Fanuc 21i TB
& 18i TB Control

With ‘Manual Guide i’, for simple manual operation to complex machining

Overview          Features          Machining Cycles

 

Overview

Two and three axis TORNADO models are fitted with the GE Fanuc 21iTB control while the five & six axis ‘MS & MSY’ models are fitted with the GE Fanuc 18iTB control.

The latest generation ‘B’ controls have twice the processing speed of the previous ‘A’ models and are equipped with ‘Manual Guide i’ software.  With ‘Manual Guide i’, operators are able to generate part programs quickly and efficiently through easy to understand conversational style prompts.
