IS-M 408 (4×8), IS-M 510 (5×10), IS-M 612 (6×12)

industrial

The IS-M is the IS platform upgraded to a dedicated Mitsubishi M80 CNC control with fiber-optic communication and Mitsubishi 1 kW AC servos, aimed at shops wanting a hardware CNC control rather than a PC-based one. It keeps the all-ballscrew drivetrain, HSD ATC spindle (10-position carousel), and 4-zone vacuum phenolic table across 4×8 to 6×12 sizes. It is positioned between the standard IS and the automated IS-A.
