Samurai Human Machines
Bring the future of manufacturing to your facility with the first machine tool built upon the Samurai Steel™ foundation, the Samurai 220H.
Engineered for maximum capability per size and cost while maintaining a familiar design, Samurai H Machines bridge the gap between future machining technology and your current machine shop.
If you are ready to try something different to outpace your competition, look no further than the 220H.

What is the Future of Productivity?
For the past century, machine tool productivity has been about running individual machines as fast and efficiently as possible.
The introduction of CNC rapidly increased the productivity of a manual mill by removing the slow human from the feed axis.
With modern FEA software and engineering expertise, this approach is reaching its fundamental optimisation ceiling.
When everyone is running the fastest machines with the highest performing end mills and the most efficient tool paths, how do you compete?
The Future of Production Productivity = Maximise Spindle Count per Floorspace

The Three Samurai
Machines and tooling cannot be pushed any faster without increasing tool and machine wear. The next step for increasing productivity is to shrink each machine down to reduce cost while maintaining performance. Then add parallel operations to achieve 100% increase in output for each machine added.
Samurai Steel™ is the patent pending technology that achieves the high rigidity of larger Cast Iron VMC's.

Unlocking the 3rd Dimension
Due to physical and economic constraints, traditional CNC machines must be placed on a solid concrete foundation.
Whether the goal is expanding your shops capability without moving units, or unprecedented levels of output for humanoid robot production, stacking machines vertically is the key to 10x your output* without building 10x more factories.
By significantly reducing the size and mass required to make a capable machine, Samurai Steel™ has unlocked the 3rd Dimension for Machine Tools. It is now not only physically possible, but it makes economic sense to build vertical structures to stack machines rather than only expanding production laterally.
*Samurai Human Machines are a balance of production and prototyping capabilities and we currently do not offer prefabricated structures; to 10x your production with vertical stacking optimisation see Samurai Industrial Machines →

The Future of Prototyping Productivity = Minimise Human Input
Every human tool change, fixture change, program or offset change increases not only the machine setup time but the chance for error.
When it comes to setups, rushing to decrease spindle down time dramatically increases the chance of error, leading to machine damage or human injury.
The solution is not one thing but general principles that are applied to the entire machines design: Minimise human input where possible, minimise chance of damage, minimise severity of damage, minimise repetition per setup.

Zero risk of damage
