Tri Tool Inc. announces the new RBL-G2, the next generation in clamshell lathes.
Tri Tool designed the RBL-G2 to be faster, better and built it for safety, performance and speed.
“We wanted to eliminate as many pinch points on the new RBL-G2 as possible,” says Justin Tripp, P.E., manager of engineering. “Our engineering team developed an innovative and patent-pending tool block design that allows for the tripper mechanism to remain in a fixed and low-profile location adjacent to the tapered drive housings. The result is significantly fewer pinch points throughout the entire usable range of the machine."
Tri Tool examined every aspect of the clamshell lathe design and improved performance, speed and ease of use while maintaining the power and durability from previous models. The newly re-designed RBL-G2 will now sever and bevel up to three times faster with a new high speed, in-line and right angle motor options in a single drive housing which adds flexibility and reduces machining time without compromising power.
Tri Tool says the tool bit has been simplified to save the operator time and reduce the amount of training needed to operate the machine.
