Solves Waste at Production Sites
Cutting Out the Waste
There are many types of waste in cutting processes.
Our original NC control (machine/controller integrated development) makes operation at work sites easier,
drives machine performance to the fullest, and eliminates all possible waste through optimized control.
Solves Four Waste Elements at Production Sites

Space
SPEEDIO eliminates all these waste elements and contributes to your profitability and reduction in
global environmental impact.
Wasted time reduction
Wasted time is reduced by minimizing non-cutting time in the machining cycle time and reducing setup time and downtime.
Reduction in cycle time
Non-stop ATC
High-speed tool change has been achieved by faster and optimized spindle start/stop, Z-axis up/down, and magazine operation.
* Values for Z-axis 300 mm spec.
Wasted resource reduction
Wasted recourses are reduced by using machining adjustment support that prevents cutting defects and production support such as real-time monitoring.
Defect reduction / Preventive maintenance
Realtime monitoring to avoid defects
Machining load applied to the spindle is monitored to issue an alarm when the load is not within the preset range.
Wasted energy reduction
Optimal design eliminates all waste, including excessive power consumption and air flowrate, achieving industry-leading energy-saving performance.
Saving power
Highly efficient spindle motor
Brother’s original high acceleration/deceleration type synchronous motor provides fast response to rotation and stop, achieving highly efficient cutting with less power.
Wasted installation space reduction
Compact design reduces wasted space with less restrictions on installation locations.
Compact design
Compact design allows machines to be installed efficiently even in limited space. When building a new factory, the floor space can be reduced, which requires less lighting and air conditioning, leading to factory-wide energy saving.

The Value of Promoting Energy Saving
Companies’ efforts to promote energy saving bring a variety of values for their business operations.
Enhancement of corporate image and value
Amid global calls for carbon neutrality, promoting energy saving and contributing to decarbonization will lead to an increase in corporate value.
In addition, there is a trend toward valuing decarbonization efforts, which can lead to improved evaluation by business partners and enhanced corporate competitiveness.
Economic advantages
Energy consumption can be reduced by the introduction of highly efficient equipment, which can lower running costs.
Production quantity per day: 200 pcs.
