Fryer - Finally in New Zealand

Fryer machine tools are hand built, American made machines representing the highest quality and value available today. Built by skilled craftsmen, using the highest quality inspection tools and techniques, these machines are designed and built for years of trouble free use. Known throughout the industry for high accuracy and durability, Fryer offers a full range of machining centres from tool-room style bed mills to high performance machining centres and an impressive line of tool-room flat bed CNC lathes and high performance slant bed turning centres and mill-turn centres.

Founded in 1982 by Larry Fryer, Fryer Machine Systems are celebrating their 25th year. The company was started as an engineering firm specialising in machine tool retrofits and custom machinery. Experimenting with different tool-room mill designs, Fryer produced its first bed type mill (MB-14) in 1994. This three-axis machine had handles and a quill for full manual use yet could be used completely automatically for CNC use. Vastly improved but true to the original concept, it is still one of the best selling machines today and is very popular with tool-makers.

The incredible success of these machines led to further development of a complete line of milling and turning machines. Today, Fryer manufactures 35 models of machine tools in its modern 50,000-sq/ft facility in Patterson, NY. The workforce is a homegrown collection of craftsmen from throughout New England where building machines is an endemic way of life.

Fryer machines have achieved very competitive pricing without compromising quality. Only the best materials and components are used in their construction. True to the Fryer philosophy of producing top performing machines, they include an impressive list of standard features that are simply not available or are optional extra's on other leading US brands - such as: Rigid box-way construction (RBW consistently out-cut linear guide-ways with greater dampening, less vibration and supreme rigidity & durability), Certified FC3 meehanite castings, Double-nut ball-screws, 2500 rpm Rigid tapping, All axis Laser Calibrated and ballbar verified (0.0024mm rpt accuracy on entire length of travel), Colour touch screen, Conversational programming, High speed controllers (1,300 lines per sec), DXF file converter, 30 Mtrs/min rapid travel (Turcite-B coated slide- ways on all axis), 2 second tool change time to name a few. The Fryer philosophy is simple and effective: (1) Build reliable machines by choosing the best components. (2) Build affordable machines by keeping the technology simple. (3) Build quality machines by being fanatical about inspection (350 individual QC inspections for the MC-P series for example). This philosophy has paid off with Fryer being one of the fastest growing machine tool companies in America.

Fryer is fortunate to have a dedicated network of distributors providing sales, service and application engineering worldwide. All distributors are factory trained on both mechanical and control maintenance repairs providing exceptional service.
