Achieve nanometer-level precision (0.01μm minimum drive unit) that enables you to meet the most demanding tolerance requirements other machines simply cannot achieve. When micron-level accuracy isn’t enough, the EXC100L+ delivers the nano-precision required for medical implants, aerospace components, and ultra-precision dies where failure is not an option.

The world’s first completely contact-less XY orthogonal table system using ceramic air sliders eliminates all mechanical wear forever. Zero friction means zero degradation—your machine maintains nanometer-level accuracy indefinitely without recalibration, delivering consistent part quality from day one through decades of operation.

LP2W power supply directly reads 3D models to automatically create optimal machining conditions, eliminating the guesswork of manual programming. Enable true lights-out operation while freeing your skilled operators for higher-value engineering tasks instead of babysitting machines or troubleshooting suboptimal conditions.

High-performance dielectric cooling and advanced air circulation system deliver stable high-precision machining the moment you power on. Eliminate costly warm-up periods that waste productive hours—start cutting parts immediately and maximize your daily throughput without compromising nanometer-level accuracy.
