OptiPro Systems
Citizen, Miyano, Spinner 5-Axis, Akari HMC, AccuteX EDM, and Flow All Will Be Showcased at OptiPro's Open House!

We are excited to announce that OptiPro will be showcasing the Citizen L20X, Miyano BNA-42DHY, Spinner U5-620-AI, Akari HS-450i, AccuteX SP-300i, and Flow Mach 4 2513b at our Open House and Steakout on November 2nd and 3rd!

The Citizen L20X further develops on the best-selling L20E-IX with additional tooling capacity and a Y axis on the front-machining toolpost. The L20X has been specially developed for high-precision manufacturing of simple and complex parts in medium to large batch sizes. It offers all-around versatility and flexibility with its many options and extremely short setup times. Check out a video of the Citizen L20X.

The Miyano BNA-42DHY enables rapid processing of complex workpieces and features 2 spindles and 2 turrets, the main turret with Y-axis function.

The Spinner U5-620-AI is full 5-axis simultaneous capable, unlike the DMG DMU-50 Eco which only offers 5-axis as an option. This machine allows companies in a wide range of industries to make the move into 5-axis machining at a low cost. Having the capability to machine a wide variety of complex shapes means never having to turn away potential jobs that are too difficult to machine on a standard 3

or 4-axis machine. View a video of the Spinner U5-620-AI.

The Akari HS-450i is a high performance expandable horizontal machining center that was developed by CNC Systems in response to the increased demand for high precision, high efficiency machining of complex shaped work pieces. Check out a video of the Akari

HS-450i.

The AccuteX EDM SP-300i provides superior cutting speed and accuracy in an easy-to-use, cost-effective wire EDM. It features an annealing, fully automatic wire threader with a tip disposal unit, a powerful Windows-based CNC and XYZ travels of 22.1" x 14.2" x 11.8". U and V travels are 3.9" each.

The Flow Mach 4b Series is the forefront of waterjet technology with the most advanced capabilities offered in the waterjet industry.

Exclusive HyperPressure™ Technology allows you to cut faster, lower your costs, and increase production. Flow's advanced Dynamic Waterjet® XD allows you to produce the most accurate parts faster with bevels or in 3D.

OptiPro will also be putting on demos of the latest version of the world's most popular CAD/CAM software, Mastercam X6. The new features and updates of X6 will be highlighted during the demonstrations provided by OptiPro's Mastercam experts Vince Cannarozzo and Chris Parish. If you are thinking about making the switch to a different software, come to OptiPro's Open House to see why more companies depend on Mastercam to maximize their manufacturing operations than any other option.

In addition, the Master3DGage, an affordable, portable CMM developed by Verisurf, will be showcased at the open house. Master3DGage uses precise, 3D model-based software to quickly and accurately verify part quality - right on a CNC machine or anywhere else in the manufacturing process.

All in attendance will be able to enjoy a steak lunch or dinner courtesy of OptiPro! Download our Open House and Steakout flyer for more information. To RSVP, please contact Pat Bechtold by calling 585-265-0160 x235 or send emails to pbechtold@optipro.com.

OptiPro SystemsTop 3 Reasons Why NOW is the Best Time to Invest in a New Machine Tool
  1. Substantial 2011 tax savings
  2. Lock in machine delivery by end of year
  3. Historically low interest rates

 

1.) There are huge 2011 tax savings including:

  • 100% bonus depreciation
  • Section 179 tax write-off up to $500,000
  • Section 179 tax benefits will dramatically reduce in 2012

 

Thousands of dollars in

tax savings are attainable with Section 179 deductions. This year's tax cuts provide a great incentive to purchase equipment in 2011. To see your potential tax savings, use the Manufacturers Financing Services (MFS) tax savings calculator.

 

2.) Act NOW to secure delivery by December 31st

In order to receive tax deductions, machines must be delivered to your shop floor by December 31st, 2011. Due to long machine lead times, orders should be placed NOW to ensure an end of year delivery date.

 

3.) Low interest rates

Interest rates will never be lower than they are today. So not only will you receive big tax savings, you'll also save big in low interest rates.
