CNC Milling and Turning package for education
The Denford Duo is a complete CNC milling and turning package designed for education and engineering training, providing everything needed to introduce students to two of the fundamental CNC machining processes.
Combining the Micromill Pro CNC Milling Machine and Microturn Pro CNC Lathe, together with CNC software and tooling, the Denford Duo provides a practical, accessible introduction to CNC manufacturing.
Compact, fully enclosed and designed for education, it is ideal for producing student prototypes and small components in materials including wax, plastics, acrylic and free-cutting alloys.
FEATURES
CNC Milling and Turning in one education package
The Denford Duo brings together two complementary CNC machines to provide students with practical experience of both CNC milling and CNC turning.
The package includes:
Micromill Pro – Compact 3-axis CNC milling machine
and
Microturn Pro – Compact 2-axis CNC lathe
Together, they enable students to learn the principles of CNC machining, programming and CAD/CAM while understanding the differences between milling and turning processes.
With tooling and software included, the Denford Duo provides a complete solution for organisations looking to introduce practical CNC manufacturing without investing in larger industrial machinery.
