The Hunter Engineering BL Series Bench Lathes now include a tablet, enabling operators to look up the vehicle and access the specifications immediately. The tablet then calculates the distance between the cutting bits on the lathe and compares it live to the specifications. With a user-friendly display, the tablet provides information on the depth of cuts, speeds and settings, as well as offers training videos and helpful animations to guide technicians through various procedures. After a certain number of cuts, the BitMinder function reminds the user when it’s time to rotate the bits.
