ProtoTRAK EMX CNC
Easy to learn and remember all the features
We recommend this control when most of the work for the machine is simple
Great for shops where different people use the machine occasionally
Vo Techs love this CNC for teaching conventional milling and introduction to CNC on the same machine

 

Programming
Program easily with simple selections and prompts in plain English
The ProtoTRAK EMX defines the tool path for you once you define the part geometry
