Acu-Rite Solutions maintains its superiority by continuing to combine every MILLPWR^G2 system with Acu-Rite Solutions precision glass scales for unmatched accuracy and reliability. An inherently durable material, Acu-Rite Solutions precision glass scales resist changes in size, shape or density due to temperature and humidity variations. Their stability ensures an accuracy as fine as 1.5um (.00006″), earning them an industry-wide reputation for excellence in measurement and precise positioning technology. The accuracy of Acu-Rite Solutions precision glass scales is essential to the precise control of the MILLPWR^G2 system.

Built on the strength of its former design, the MILLPWR^G2 control continues to provide machinists the convenience of straightforward 2-1/2 axis conversational shop-floor programming, eliminating time-consuming calculations and the need to learn complicated programs. In addition to this, MILLPWR^G2 has the ability to run G-code files from CAD/CAM programs, giving users the capability of full 3-D contouring. Consequently, MILLPWR^G2 is even easier to use and maximizes productivity for machinists of all levels, from the less experienced operator, to the most seasoned veteran.

MILLPWR^G2‘s numerous capabilities put many valuable functions at the tip of the operator’s finger. MILLPWR^G2 conversational shop floor programming makes it “powerful easy” to create and store multi-step part programs that include custom pockets, contours, chamfers, hole patterns, engraving, and other specialized features within a few short steps. After a program is created, it can be saved on MILLPWR^G2 internal flash memory, a PC (using Ethernet), or on a USB stick, and reloaded later for future orders. If an order is accompanied with a DXF file, MILLPWR^G2 will translate the part geometry into an operator-friendly program. MILLPWR^G2 also has the ability to merge programs and edit, rearrange and delete multiple program steps at one time, quickly and easily.

The newly enhanced MILLPWR^G2 is more valuable then ever, increasing machine shop production output. With MILLPWR^G2, machine operators will spend less time setting up jobs and inputting data and more time actually machining parts. This is due to MILLPWR^G2‘s advanced programming proficiency. During programming, MILLPWR^G2 helps keep errors to a minimum by use of the immediate part-view graphics feature. MILLPWR^G2 will also reduce scrap with the use of its dry-run feature, allowing the tool’s cutting path to be verified “on screen” before the tool ever touches the part.

Each MILLPWR^G2 system also includes a skew feature. With this unique skew setting, job setups are faster. Instead of aligning the workpiece perfectly parallel with the X-or Y-axes by hand, users can easily align the part program to the workpiece using this feature.

From the beginning, the design goals for MILLPWR^G2 included being lucid and operator-friendly. As a result, Acu-Rite Solutions developed a system that is easy to learn and “powerful easy” to use. Acu-Rite Solutions maintains this design concept with a sturdy operator console that features a 12.1-inch, flat panel, color LCD display; a color-coded, well-organized keypad; and USB ports, all standard equipment.

Versatile, productive, and cutting edge capabilities keeps MILLPWR^G2 the innovative leader of CNC control systems.
