As part of the HEIDENHAIN family of brands, Acu-Rite Solutions offers motion control products designed and supported in the USA. The brand offers a complete portfolio of CNC controls, digital readouts (DROs), and encoders-all backed by HEIDENHAIN innovation. The solutions are suited for upgrading legacy machines, outfitting training labs, or boosting shop floor productivity.
For machinists extending the life of manual equipment, Acu-Rite Solutions CNC controls offer a balance of simplicity and performance.
The MILLPWRG2 CNC Milling Control transforms knee and bed mills into efficient, productive machines. Acting as a DRO and a programmable CNC control, it offers real-time tool feedback with HEIDENHAIN precision-helping users reduce scrap, tighten tolerances, and get more from their existing equipment.
For turning applications, the TURNPWR CNC Turning Control brings conversational programming to lathes with up to two axes plus spindle. It minimizes setup time and waste while increasing throughput, making it a suitable choice for busy shops and training environments alike, the company reported.
Acu-Rite Solutions' DROs are designed to eliminate manual calculations and improve workpiece quality. Each DRO provides accurate, real-time axis location for tighter tolerances and greater efficiency.
The lineup ranges from the DRO100, an entry-level model, to the versatile DRO203 for milling and turning with pre-programmed cycles. For advanced 2D measurement, the DRO203Q powers optical comparators and microscopes, while the flagship DRO300 supports up to four axes (or six with the IB2X option) for greater versatility in new and retrofit machines.
For modern flexibility, the droPWR iOS app turns an iPad into a full-function DRO. With Bluetooth connectivity and multimachine support, it is an accessible solution for classrooms, production environments, and small shops alike.
"From entry-level operators to experienced machinists, Acu-Rite Solutions DROs streamline workflows and deliver measurable ROI-often in less than 30 days," said a company spokesperson.
Complementing Acu-Rite Solutions controls and DROs are linear encoders engineered for precision, reliability, and durability in challenging environments.
The SENC 50 offers high-accuracy feedback in tight spaces and features Position-Trac for quick recovery after power loss. The versatile SENC 150 offers high accuracy for mills, lathes, grinders, and EDMs, while the LMF 9310 uses an inductive measuring system that resists contaminants to provide long-term stability.
"These encoders enhance machining quality, extend equipment life, and integrate seamlessly with Acu-Rite Solutions controls and DROs-helping users maintain precision and uptime across a range of applications," said the spokesperson.
