We wanted to keep the weight of the Slant 30 Elevator Friendly for those in the Jewelry business and R and D facilities located on an upper floor. We also wanted the machine to be able to be moved by a pallet jack for shops that want to use the machine as a second op machine for more than one CNC or Work Cell.
