FLASH Plus

The FLASH Plus is an enhancement of our tried and tested FLASH series. Considerably increased speed of the tool spindle, combined with a high precision ball bearing, leads to significant improvements in quality and quantity. The combination of an ultrafast tool spindle and a high-performance controller make the FLASH Plus one of the most efficient manual digital surfacing-turning machines on the market.
