Glaston has introduced its CNC96 upgrade kit for automotive and architectural glass-cutting equipment. This upgrade aims to enhance the CNC96 control system while modernizing any components at the end of their life. The CNC96 upgrade kit is part of the company’s larger lifecycle support offering to keep customers’ machinery operating at peak performance.
Glaston’s CNC96 was first released in 1996 as an in-house system engineered with exclusively developed hardware components.
