DATRON neo

Tired of Turning Down Those Intricate, Precision, Small Part Jobs?

Diversify Your Job Shop by Adding German-Engineered High-Speed Machining

Add precision and efficiency with the DATRON neo — a user-friendly, space-saving solution that empowers your job shop to handle prototypes and small runs quickly.

The DATRON neo specializes in precision, intricate parts in aluminum and other non-ferrous materials. Use your heavier CNC machines for steel and parts requiring large tooling. You can now quote those jobs that require 0.010″ end mills because you have 40,000 RPM to play with. The compact system uses minimal floor space of 32″ x 51″ but offers a generous 19 1/2″ x 16″ travel. Setup jobs faster with the 24-capacity tool magazine, integrated touch probe, and augmented reality (AR) camera. Options include a 4th axis for rotary work and unique vacuum table systems for flat plate jobs.

The electric 40,000 RPM spindle with ceramic bearings has minimal run-out for machining with the smallest of end mills and drills. The intuitive next control with touchscreen interfaces seamlessly integrates with CAM packages such as Fusion 360 and MasterCAM. Verify projects prior with the 3D simulation and monitor your jobs with the smartphone app while machining. Gain that competitive advantage for those intricate jobs you cannot machine efficiently on conventional CNC systems.

The Future of The CNC Industry

There is only one machine, and machine builder, on the planet that represents exactly my view of THE FUTURE OF THE CNC INDUSTRY and that’s the next control and the newest generation of DATRON machines.”

Jeff Heinz, Senior Prototyping Engineer

Watch the neo in Action

Machine deep thin wall channels with micron precision in aluminum, drill .005″ micro holes in ceramics and add serialized engraving to a stainless-steel panel. These are just a few of the many capabilities of the DATRON neo!

  • Spindle speeds up to 40,000 RPM with a liquid-cooled chiller
  • 32″ x 51″ footprint with 19 1/2″ x 16″ travel
  • Easy interface with posts to popular CAM packages

What the Job Shop of the Future Looks Like

For job shops that need to produce small, high-precision parts quickly and efficiently, the DATRON neo is the perfect solution!

Capable of micron-level tolerances in aluminum and other materials, the neo delivers high-quality surface finishes in a fraction of the time compared to conventional CNC machines. Unlike larger, heavier machines with lower RPM spindles, the neo is compact with a unique construction that allows high acceleration and deceleration rates without risk of overtravel. The polymer concrete dampening-filled design offers enough rigidity for the most demanding surface finishes and tolerances. Whether you’re working on prototypes, short runs, or custom parts, the DATRON neo streamlines your workflow and reduces shop floor space while diversifying your capabilities and keeping you competitive.
