The ACU-RITE 300 series is a versatile programmable digital readout for 2-, 3- or 4-axes display in turning and milling modes. it is designed primarily for milling machines, drilling and boring machines and lathes with up to 4 axes. The easy-to-use readout contains many new and advanced features such as multiple-language display and multi-programme storage. This robust unit also features a splash-proof full travel keypad for workshop use.

Operation

The 300S is equipped with a 5.7” LCD monitor that replaces the cathode-ray monitor of the VRO300. The “soft keys” are used for a variety of functions, such as operation and parameterisation. The monitor is also used in the 200S series. The 300S provides all the functions of a programmable counter, such as the creation, editing, storing and running of programmes. Multiple programmes with different names can be saved in the programme list. [/outofthebox] [outofthebox bgcolor=”#B3BCD1″ pattern=”0″ bgimagesize=”cover” removemargins=”false”]

Mechanical compatibility

The 300S can be installed on all counter mounting bases as well as in the existing mounting frames. [/outofthebox] [outofthebox bgcolor=”#A1C0DB” pattern=”0″ bgimagesize=”cover” removemargins=”false”]

Electrical connection

All digital ACU-RITE scales with D9 connectors can be connected directly to the 300S. [/outofthebox] [outofthebox bgcolor=”#ccd7ee” pattern=”0″ bgimagesize=”cover” [outofthebox bgcolor=”#ccd7ee” pattern=”0″ bgimagesize=”cover” removemargins=”false”]
