Overview
Fine Surface

Finish Infinitely variable speeds and feeds allows surface finished as low as 2Ra to 6Ra for today's MLS (Multi Layer Steel) head gaskets.

Dry Cutting System
Eliminates coolant disposal and makes clean up a breeze! Cutterhead shroud directs dust and chips into optional vacuum system.
Return to Vertical Zero

The cutterhead always returns to vertical zero - ready for the next pass.

Latest Control Technology

State of the art controls make the most advanced surfacing machines available today. Protection and Long Life Multi Layer Steel Guards cover and protect the slideways for extra long service life.

Fast Floor to Floor

Time Heads can be surfaced in less than 2 minutes and a pair of V8 heads in less than 8 minutes. VersatileCapable of surfacing large diesel heads such as CAT3406, and diesel blocks such as Detroit V71 and Mercedes OM440.

T Slot Base Large

Flat T Slot Base allows the mounting of any fixture and any job - jacks can be placed anywhere!.
