Porta Solutions Machining Center Reduces Energy Costs
IMTS 2024: Porta Solutions introduces the Portacenter 400, an independent three-spindle machining center intended to enhance flexibility, production and cost-effectiveness.
Porta Solutions North America Inc. displays the fifth-generation Portacenter 400, an independent three-spindle machining center. According to the company, the machine sits between traditional machining centers and transfer machines, so it is said to provide quick production while maintaining flexibility. The machine can reportedly machine over three times faster than a typical machining center, reducing labor, automation and part costs, as well as space and energy consumption.
The Portacenter 400 is mass-produced with lead times ranging from 60 to 90 days. The company also has a demo Portacenter machine to perform demonstrations, tests and training.
