CNC Control
The Fryer – Siemens 828 control is designed for ease of use in low volume toolroom and job shop facilities. Simple menu programming and fast set-up keys allow you make one-off parts in half the time of a manual machine. Multi mode operation allows you to use the machine manually, semi-automatic and full CNC mode. Canned cycles and graphic verify make set-up faster and easier.

FRYER-SIEMENS 828 CNC
- Manual or CNC
- Do-one mode
- Teach mode
- Conversational mode
TECHNOLOGY
- Ultra reliable Siemens High Speed all digital control system
- Regenerative drives save 40% electrical use
- Digital drives provide better accuracy and surface finish
- Absolute encoders never require you to ‘home’ machine
Geometry Creator
Enter part dimensions using the Simple Geometry Creator. The dimensions are drawn on the screen while you enter them and missing information is automatically calculated.
Pocketing Cycles
Choose from a wide variety of pocket shapes. Then answer basic questions about the depth of cut, tool type and finish stock allowance.
Drilling Cycles
Choose from a wide variety of drill cycles including drill, deep hole drill, peck drill, bore, rigid tap, rigid peck tap and more.
3D Graphic Simulation
The 828 uses sophisticated solid model graphic verification to accurately show what your part will look like BEFORE you cut it. Also choose from wireframe or multiview screen.
