• High-speed, highly reliable 10-second automatic (AT Master)*
threading • The automatic wire threading range has been increased to
provide capability for wire breakage point insertion, top/bottom
countersunk hole insertion, slit insertion, small diameter initial
hole and submerged threading
• By using the AT Master guide kit and AT Enhance Mode
setting, the auto-threading performance can be improved
where using, jet stream on, causes enough turbulence to
prohibit threading.
