    AMI Advanced Machine Interface



    The AMI BTR is designed with the needs of today´s manufacturing in mind: faster setups, longer programs and fewer errors. Inexpensive, full featured and powerful, the AMI enhances CNC´s making them more capable than ever before. By "Running from Tape", CNC memory limitations are removed. Storing the part program in the AMI frees your computer from feeding data, while you make part after part.
    Can you afford not to increase productivity?
