Throwback 1987 – Traub TND 360
#ThrowbackThursday! In the picture, the instructor teaches his apprentice the art of turning. The CNC lathe in question is a Traub TND 360 with the TX-8 control system from 1987.
This 3,500 kg heavy machine was known for its robust construction and its ability to efficiently handle even challenging machining tasks. It made for a reliable choice in demanding manufacturing operations.
