Berlin, CT — New Doosan Puma 300MSC Turn/Mill Center with multi-tasking capabilities allows Royal Machine to free up two machine spindles previously required for secondary operations. Reductions in multiple setups and handling will combine cost savings in labor with the faster scheduling, completion and delivery of orders … thus, allowing Royal to offer customers better quality control and more competitive pricing.

In making the announcement, Richard Ruscio, President, stated, “Our new Turn/Mill Center will be most beneficial in servicing our aerospace and bearing industry customers’ time sensitive delivery needs because of the immediate benefits gained from single set-ups.”

Standard features for the Doosa Puma 300MSC Turn Mill Center include:

• 30HP, 2800RPM Spindle with 4.0″ Diameter Bar Capacity
• Full C Axis with Live Tooling
• Sub Spindle with 5 Degree Index, Conveyor and Barfeed

Guy Byrne, General Manager, explained, “Purchasing the new Doosan Puma Turn/Mill Center is just one of several equipment improvements expected in 2008. It will greatly compliment our existing 35 cnc lathes and machining centers as well as the five new machines acquired during 2006 along with the Vision Wide Machining Center recently purchased in the fall of 2007. All of these are part of the successful formula that has made Royal a quality workholding manufacturer and recognized contract provider through our continually identifying critical areas for equipment improvements.”

The Doosan Puma Turn/Mill Center was purchased from Doosan Dealer, Able Machine Tool Sales of Agawam, MA and coordinated by Sales Representative Al Barile with Royal Machine executives.
