| Software notes | The machine requires no external software applications or network connections to operate. Parameter setup and monitoring are managed entirely through the onboard digital touchscreen interface. The integrated electronic control system handles rotation speed adjustments, automatic tapping cycles with spindle direction reversal, and real-time depth monitoring. Without cloud dependencies or external computer drivers, the system provides high operational reliability and immediate command execution, relying solely on built-in industrial control firmware. | — |
