FAQ

What is the difference between the Tornado+ and the Pacific+?

The Tornado+ at 6.2 m is slightly longer than the Pacific+ (5.7 m) and offers a variable feed speed of 12-18 m/min compared to the fixed 18 m/min of the Pacific+. It has more versatile equipment and, as the most proven model in the OTT range, is particularly reliable.

How many parts per shift is the Tornado+ designed for?

With 12-18 m/min feed speed, the Tornado+ is designed for medium-sized production volumes. In practical use, depending on part geometry and edge material, several hundred parts per shift can be processed.

Is the Tornado+ suitable for two-shift operation?

Yes, the robust construction of the Tornado+ is designed for continuous operation. Many workshops successfully use it in two-shift production. For even more intensive use, we recommend the Storm+ or TopEdge.
