FAQs
How fast can LICO screw machines be serviced if they go down?
Sometimes it can be just a phone call away. Absolute Machine Tools has a large service staff across the United States that includes distribution. We are the North American importer for these machines, so we stock repair parts. We are able to fill about 94% of repair parts requests from stock. In total Absolute Machine Tools carries nearly $20M in stock between CNCs and parts.
How fast can LICO screw machines be broken down and set back up?
That depends on your personnel. All of the LICO customer make changeovers in less than 2 hours. About one-third are in the hour range. However, we have some customers who do changeovers in 15 to 20 minutes. Of course, when it’s just a program change, then you can changeover in 2 minutes. As with any machine tool, standardization is the key.
How fast can the turrets index on LICO multi-slide CNC screw machines?
Station to station is .28 seconds, 180 degrees is .6 seconds.
