Cincinnati, Ohio - SIEB & MEYER USA introduces its 8th generation CNC and motion control platform for Multi-Spindle Automatic (MSA) machine tools. This next generation CNC provides a sophisticated blend of industrial hardened technology with the advantages of a PC-based control that has seen business activity triple in 2008. Part lot sizes are smaller today, tolerances are tighter and the traditional screw machine shops must have more flexibility. CNC control of the machine is the solution to reduce setup time, add single point threading and improve accuracy. Other benefits include data collection, machine network connectivity, remote diagnostic service support and more.

"We are moving 1960's screw machine technology into the 21st. century and are very excited to offer this new platform to the industrial automation community," said Jay Endres, SIEB & MEYER USA, President. "We have leveraged our 37 year history to deliver a solution that provides OEMs, retrofitters and manufactures with a control that is easy to install, uses standard hardware components, and delivers superb performance."
