The USB interface, used in conjunction with USB memory sticks, also provides for a method of backing-up data and interchanging cutting programmes between machines added the company.
Pro-tec has a 12" TFT display with touch-screen, full-colour, active operator interface and offers an optional automatic waste disposal (ASE) that allows the user to dispose of off-cuts quickly and efficiently.
