SwissNano 7: Tornos precision as the key to success

The SwissNano 7, developed for high-precision turning of workpieces up to 7 mm in diameter, marks a technological milestone for STRUB MEDICAL. Compact, energy-efficient, and ergonomic, the machine is ideal for workshops where every square meter counts. Thanks to its sophisticated design, the SwissNano 7 offers excellent accessibility: Adjustments, tool changes, and maintenance are effortless – a major advantage for operators. “What convinced us was the consistency of the results and the ease of use. Once the machine is set up, it runs for days without any deviation. Despite its compact design, it remains extremely stable and hardly heats up. That’s impressive,” Marco Müller said. In addition, its energy efficiency fits perfectly into the company’s environmental strategy: The SwissNano 7 consumes little power yet delivers consistent machining performance. This is a decisive advantage for STRUB MEDICAL, which wants to optimize its resources without compromising on quality.
