Park Industries’ most impressive single-pass, 13-spindle decorative line edger system has recently been enhanced. The Park Velocity smart spindle now has the capability of profiling edges with two radiuses. With just a touch of the screen, fabricators can profile seven different programmed edges while having the flexibility of adding additional profiles into the directory. In addition, the change over from edge to edge is done with servo camming programming versus the traditional physical stops. Each tool has its own individual pressure setting for each tool for ultimate control.
