  • Page 6: General

    After the success of our simple but stable LEADX Pro, we were increasingly confronted with inquiries about more complex and stable milling machines. The LEADX Ultra is based on the same aluminium profiles as the LEADX Pro, but dispenses with the roller system and the trapezoidal threaded spindles and uses high-precision linear guides and ball screws.
