Maintaining safety is essential in the railway industry to ensure locomotives can operate consistently without error. Delta Wheel Truing Solutions wanted to create a portable wheel truing lathe that performed consistently, to meet and exceed safety standards in the industry. They were able to accomplish this with the integration of FANUC CNC controls.
While some of their customers expressed reservations about computerized controls replacing manual operation, Delta Wheel Truing chose to adopt FANUC controls because they are designed for easier use and provide lifetime support for products. FANUC controls were intuitive for employees to learn with an accessible interface; in most cases, operators can fully understand how to operate a machine with FANUC controls within a day of training.
With their portable CNC wheel truing lathe, Delta Wheel Truing can provide their customers with products that offer superior quality and repeatability for consistent results.
