Siemens Pre-Packs CNC Staples

To offer a fast solution to US-based machine tool builders, system integrators and retrofitters, Siemens is stocking typical system packages that include the most frequently used Sinumerik 828D CNC, Sinamics drive, Simotics motor and accessories such as cables in its Elk Grove Village, IL, facility to ensure fast and efficient delivery in less than 10 business days.

Offered at a discount, the pre-defined packages allow for a simplified ordering process and a shortened lead-time. The program is subject to availability and delivery time will depend upon the Elk Grove stock availability. Only customers located in the U.S. with a physical mailing and delivery address are eligible for this program.

“Siemens is bringing the Sinumerik 828D to a highly competitive price point in the U.S. market.  The 828D is a compact, panel-based CNC that offers machine tool builders very flexible machine design integration”, says John Meyer, marketing communications manager, Siemens Industry, Inc. “End-customers will benefit from our highly intuitive and easy-to-use ShopMill and ShopTurn graphical programming interfaces, which increase machine tool usability and shop-floor productivity.”
