Description
The PERFORMANCE 16ATC is the machine for shops that want large-format capacity and an automatic tool changer that reduces manual tool changes on a heavy frame. Large panels, tabletops, cabinet runs and signage can move through roughing, finishing, drilling and profiling operations with the tool changer switching bits instead of a manual tool change. A 48″ × 48″ bed accepts a half sheet or the full four-foot width of standard sheet material, but not a complete 4′ × 8′ sheet. It is our largest PERFORMANCE Series CNC router, and it is built for high-volume work.
Who the PERFORMANCE 16ATC suits
Production shops, technical programs and manufacturers who cut the full four-foot width of sheet material every day and run jobs that use several tools. For the same work area without a tool changer, see the PERFORMANCE 16. If you want ATC on a lighter frame, see the DISCOVERY 16ATC.

What we see most often
Large machines reward preparation. The shops that get the most from a PERFORMANCE 16ATC arrive on day one with the electrical supply confirmed, the delivery path cleared, a dust collection plan, a workholding plan and a named person responsible for the tool library. Each item is small. Together they decide how quickly the machine pays for itself.
