    "The MW120GT Twin Spindle Chucker is ideal for manufacturers who need a precision automated turning solution," explained Steve Landrum, North American Sales Manager, Murata Machinery USA, Inc. "In operation, production speeds as fast as 16 seconds per cycle are possible on the MW120GT."

    Designed for complex turning applications, the MW120GT features two automated three-axis gantry loaders and can accommodate chucks of 165 or 210 mm (6.496 and 8.268 inches) in diameter.
