Prototyping Flexibility

IDEAL FOR A VARIETY OF MATERIALS

"Prototypes are one of the major challenges in everyday milling. The versatility of the DATRON neo is proven by its ability to handle a variety of materials with high-quality results."

With DATRON neo, milling is easy and efficient. Milling strategies like pocketing, chamfering, thread milling and creating 3D forms can all be performed quickly using this 3-axis compact milling machine. Prototypes made of composites, engineered plastics, metal or wood are produced quickly and with a consistently high quality.

DATRON neo equipped with a vacuum chuck shows its flexibility in these examples of prototype parts made of PU foam, acrylic and CFRP (below). This includes:

  • Milling of challenging and abrasive materials
  • Glass-like curved surface on acrylic
  • No need for post-processing
  • Optional dust extraction for a clean machine interior
