Nikken E346B Presetter Machine

Our latest E346B series presetters are of course the ideal solution to use in the toolroom: solid, precise and above all easy to use.

The use of natural granite as a key construction element allows our tool presetters to have a high degree of dimensional stability, guaranteeing accuracy and repeatability of measurements. When granite makes the difference!

All spindle holders are interchangeable (ISO/BT/HSK/polygonal taper…etc): by negating the use of adapters, the coupling error is drastically reduced, making measurement more accurate.

The new optical scales model AS371 provide high performance and accuracy. The development of this essential component is based on forty years of experience in the field of mechanical measurement. Trust the experts!

The E346B is equipped with a vertically positioned 15.6″ capacitive touch screen monitor for better display of both data and measurement functions. Our monitor combines robustness and precision, offering optimal visuals.

The new user interface was designed with a clear objective: to make the operator experience as simple and intuitive as possible.

The evolution of our software increases the connections between operators, tools and machines in the smart factory. This translates into a real increase in quality and performance. Why not choose the best? Trust the experts!
