1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 MONO PTO MACHINES This document was devised for user reference during part programming. These machines feature more sophisticated technology (PTO) than previous machines (PNC). This technological progress explains the existing differences with the previous Deco and EvoDECO machines. The main differences are: ...
