We offer 3 SmartBench models: Standard, Precision, and PrecisionPro

Standard
Our Standard model is made for those on a budget. The SC0 spindle has manual speed control and an OZ collet system.
Precision
SmartBench Precision is our mid-range model, with digital spindle control and an ER16 collet system.
Digital spindle speed control
Adjust feeds and speeds throughout the job, using commands in the job file or console controls.

Overload detection
SmartBench will automatically detect whether the spindle is working too hard, and will auto-pause the job to prevent overload.

PrecisionPro
This is our top-of-the-line, and most popular, SmartBench model.
The PrecisionPro is still excellent value for money, with extra features that give it the edge when it comes to precision and ease of use.
Laser datum
PrecisionPro comes equipped with a laser on the front of the Z Head for XY datum setting.
it’s easy to see exactly where the centre of the laser crosshair sits over your target, making datum setting much faster - perfect for quick turnarounds.

Dual Z axis lead screws
The dual lead screws give more restraint to the Z axis, reducing deflection during plunges and retracts.

Realtime on-screen spindle monitoring
You will be able to see the load on the spindle in real time, in increments of 20%. This gives you an early indication if you need to adjust the feeds and speeds during the job.

PrecisionPro +
It has all the features of PrecisionPro model additionally it is equipped with advanced hardware to make your machining even more productive.
Advanced drivers
The advanced trinamic driver detects the load on the motor even before it actually stalls thus preventing damages to your stock material.
Extractor
The extraction has its own input and output power sockets inbuilt to the Lower X Beam. Meaning you can now power an extractor with more watts directly from the SmartBench without needing to compromise on the amps. Click here to learn the power specification of each SmartBench model.
A: New amphenol cable
B: Power supply input for extraction
C: Power supply input for SmartBench
D: Power supply output for extraction
Job save
Job save feature give you the option to resume your operation to recover your job if you had any issues while machining, for instance look at the following issues:
Z height was incorrectly set
Tool breakage during mid-job
Live graphs
You can now watch live graphs of your machining operation from which you can see where your tool is experiencing maximum loads and try to optimise the feeds.
