"The productivity those things put out is insane... say a part took 30 minutes on one of our old machines, the Hera 200 is cutting the part in 2 minutes; it’s that big of a difference. After experiencing the productivity gains of the Hera 200, it just proved the point even more to go with the Hera 500."
