The sales, engineering, and executive staff at Doosan Machine Tools America (Pine Brook, NJ) hosted a festive Open House recently to celebrate their expanded Technical Center. The company welcomed valued customers and its North American distributor network during a three-day event that served to introduce and confirm to attendees the support that the company offers and their strength in developing new machine tool technologies.
Visitors enjoyed tours of the center and watched, listened and learned about the various machine tools that were unveiled in the redesigned demonstration area. For example, a Compact Linear Pallet System (LPS) was integrated with an HP5100II horizontal machining center as an ideal solution for aerospace components and other high productivity applications. Also highlighted was a Puma MX 1600ST mill-turn center that offers manufacturers a compact footprint and bed length for smaller parts, such as those made in the medical sector. Another key system demonstrated in action was the DNM 200 5AX, a cost-effective 5-axis machine aimed at reducing setup time and part handling for improved component accuracy.
In addition to the fully-functioning demonstration area that was packed with CNC turning centers, machining centers and automation cells and systems, the 35,000 sq ft Technical Center features dedicated applications engineering, training, spindle lab, parts warehouse, and service departments. The parts warehouse has a particularly comprehensive inventory that enables quick response to customer needs, including shipping replacement parts when required for routine maintenance functions immediately – less than 24 hours in most cases.
